    i first thought it had a bit of ss style to when i first saw it to.

    definatly going to keep it looking how it is for a while just Kingspring Lows in the front and super lows in the ass(bought them today)

    then maybe a cd player, then do up the motor just all the bolt on first then maybe after christmas get it chipped and cammed.

    just a bit of an update.... Lowered the car on the weekend, took out the bellmouth, added a drift pod filter and cut out the rear mufler and replaced with 2.5" straight thru pipe.

    The car has a very loud sucking noise now when i boot it, i think it may be due to the zorst n pod filter. sounds pretty sweet...

    No new pic as of yet haven't had time plus haven't been bothered.

    the sucking is from the pod man...what made u change your mind to go with the pod over the panel filter and the cai?

    While i was lowering it n doing the chop on the zorst a mate came round when he found out what i was doing he said he's got a spare pod n he went n got that out then we took out the bell mouth.

    i'll still get the cai but the pod'll do for now till i get a bit more cash.....

    i've decided against selling the vp, i drove that stato but it was a bit of a barge, so today got a spool put in my car today, and it's raining pretty bad, it was a little daunting at first knowing it's been so long since the last spooled car i drove, plus it was wet bet by the time i was back in my suburb i had it pretty sussed, now i just gotta get some junk tyres on my stockies.

    UPDATE:
    Over the weekend... i had the blower fitted without the belt on the pulley just to see what needs to be done.... sometime this week i'm remaking one of the brackets...1 hole is in the wrong spot and the bonnet won't shut... then on the weekend i'll refit it and take measurments for one more bracket, then off she'll be to have the boost gauge put in early next week an i'll be set.... for a little while.

    I also took off the rear bar and fitted 14" stockies (nufnsus)

    I dropped the car off today at the exhaust joint to get extractors($20 off a mate) and cat back installed. Now while i'm waiting to get my car back from the exhaust joint i'm fixing a split in the rear bar and patching up a section that was missing from when i blew a tyre.

    tonight i'm putting standard spec DBA discs and ferdo pads on the front.

    Got my sound system on the weekend, probably start installing it on friday, i have a sony mp3 head unit ($187), pioneer 6in speakers for the parcel shelf ($140), pioneer 700w 2ch amp (free), pioneer v12 sub (free).

    i went to JB hi-fi an bought the head unit for $187, shortly after a was in supercheap and they had the exact same unit for $320+
    Bargain me thinks.

    I had someone that was going to buy it they had agreed to pay $3200 and were going to give a deposit but i told them i didn't want a deposit, a couple of days later i took that stato that i had in mind for a drive but it felt slow to drive, noisy as and it felt like i was driving the titanic.

    I had a look around in the car yards at some other stato's and they were all the same and pretty pricey too. It helped me realise how much i like my car... so i told them that it's nolonger for sale
