    Default my VP

    Hi guys this is my vp commy.
    when i first got it, it was just a standard auto vp with a set of bmw mags.
    my VP-60331_158980150785101_100000193500407_546273_3539598_n.jpg

    since I've had it I've added:
    some nice mags,
    a set of extractors,
    a detroit lokka style diff (no single peggers for me )
    and have a manual conversion and a cat back exhaust system in the shed (just waiting for some decent weather to put them in)

    just a couple pics with the new mags on a nice frosty morning.

    next on the wish list is to get it lowered.

    Just a quick update: have got the new exhaust system on and it sounds sweet , have just sourced some VT discs and calipers for $120.

    feel free to leave some comments guys.

    thanks mate.

    REALLY need to get the front bar fixed up tho, apparently the woman who owned it before me went over a gutter in it.

    Just a quick update, Manual gearbox is in and fitted a thicker pedders sway bar.

    Only took two days to do the manual conversion with the help of my father keen to get out on the strip this weekend.

    Took it down the strip yesterday and ran a 15.8

    Don't have any pics of the diff but google LOKKA and you'll find it. Didn't go much on the other rims my self and they had loads of gutter rash.

    Yeah been meaning to get rid of the sticker but it keeps getting put aside while i do other work.

    I am thinking of getting a lockrite lokka for my VP wagon. What are they like on gravel roads or in mud?

    Fun as f#@k.
    They can be a bit harsh and cause some backlash if you upset the car whilst turning on bitumen but in the wet or on gravel etc as soon as you put the power down its instant two wheels.
