Thats an awesome looking VP mate. Love those wheels and the boot install is pretty neat too. What future mods have you got planned?

Love the install... your own work?
hate the rims, personal choice though...
Your 'stock' diff ratio is out.... unless i have missed something...
Not a fan of the steering wheel, but i dont really like aftermarket ones unless really tasteful.
Clean looking interior, simple and practical.
Nice ride, love Vp/vn's so youve always got my vote!
aZk.
*** EDIT ***
You changed your diff ratio so my above comment is kinda irrelevant.

i hope to replace the subs and amp with a reputable brand,
engine wise i'm happy with it NA, so a stage 2 crow grind is in order methinks (when i save up enough) tho at that stage i'm probably half way to the cost of an average V8.
yeah i did the boot myself, if you're not a geek the logo is from boba fett's shoulder guard. 3 blue led spotlights shine when the boot lid opens (1 on each sub and one on the logo)
i'll try to get pics of that part when i can (my memcard reader is dead)

That's a very nice looking car you've got, the bodykit and wheels really set it off. Looks like it's in pretty good condition too.

i know, kind of sh**s me too, (derr) cos it doesn't fare too badly against rides that a v8 should beat, but being a sv enhanced, i'm sure they go home bragging that they beat an 8

Nice car mate!!! Should boost it :P
Are the wheels 16 inch or 17inch?
Also what gear knob is that?

i was thinking about boosting it for a bit, but the cost of the internals got me thinking that a cam might be better (kinda like NA too)
the rims are 17's, don't think they're genuine but.
gearshift is a short shifter that was on it when i got it, just a plain leather knob, but it seriously won't come off the shaft, tried twisting, pulling , looking for an allen nut. might have to get a new shaft if i want a new head.
here's a better shot of it

PRobably not a proper short shift, was probably cut & knob glued on... That's why you can't get it off...
Cheers
