Thanks mate, never had any trouble with police (touch wood) and been pulled over a few times, goes fairly well, but the current exhaust is really holding it back
Built it all my self mate and had some bits built.
I will get some for you, only ones I have atm are build pics of the charger going in.
hell yeh looks awesome dude u gotta bring it back down adelaide againa dn take me for a cruise in it again hahahaha. Get ur bro out with his ss too
[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
One weekend soon, maybe it needs to go to lots of workshops first.
Engine pics, engine bay is dirty as and don't think I have ever cleaned it lol. Not much point cleaning it though, when its going to get dirtier, from more engine work.
In fact whole car needs a clean, its been in the shed for a fair few weeks now.

Sexy. You will get some nice gains after adding the new zorst.
sweet ride man, how much ya parents sting ya for it?
Thanks mate, yeh I think the Sigs suit the VN SS's to a T.
Cheers, Yeh I do drive it around the Riverland a fair bit, probably in Loxton 2-3times a week, go over the river sometimes, some nice cars over Berri, Renmark way. Try to stay out of Berri though, seems to be fair few coppas. You see it back when it was on the VY wheels?
Cheers
Thanks, yeh I think it will be a pretty big difference before and after.
Cheers. What do you mean "How much ya parents sting ya for it?"
yeh was when you first got it i think, personall i liked the SS wheels better cos the ahve that sharp edge look the them, and if you think there is more coppers in berri your crazyi never drive my ute around renmark cos there is always 4 cop cars patroling at the same time.....
so whens the dyno run getting done for power figures???
Think your car deserves a better driver
Post a pic of the bay already.

It has to go down to Adel to be dyno tuned first, considering just doing a dyno run at the berri show with just the 10psi pulley and no cooler, but heard bad things about the people who run that one, so in two minds.
Lol if you read the thread properly, you would see a pic. Stop trying to get to drive it, I already told you, you can reverse it one day lol
Over 3000rpm is for me only![]()
tune it then show everyone up at the dyno run at the showgot any other plans for the motor???
forgies are noisy276?? VT block?

spose you wanna know his phone number too brad
what was the choice for the cam size?
Ok, I can't answer all of these, as I am giving it to a engine builder, telling him what I want to do with it, then picking it up when its done lol.
Engine management will be Haltech, exhaust is going to be twin 2.5 inch, high flow cats, turbo mufflers, merging to single 3 inch pipe, twin stainless tips. Cam is as stated. Yeh the wheels are like 5kg each
That was just the size I was suggested by CAPPA and after talking to a few engine builders. Wouldn't want something to big with boost.
very nice clean car, engine bay could do with a clean up tho, Paint the rocker covers and all that same colour as car or sumfin add some colour make her stand out.![]()
