    Plenty of mods, the vents going green or blue ? I would put a blower on ur engine save some money the stroker will cost you alot more than a bolt on blower,why not go a 4.2L stroker in ur wagon with some goodies or Ls1 where there is so many off the shelf parts and easier power made for your dollar?

    Sweet Vn,good stuff on the mods! TUFF.
    Cheers.

    Nice wagon! Not sure about the green bits in the front bar, looks like the painting wasn't finished properley and left those bits unpainted.

    VX clubby kits for VN's and VP's only look decent on wagons i reckon. Gives them a big tough beefy look.
