Looks very cleanand nice wheels
i forgot to mention , i had the windows tinited
YAY!!!!!! another white VP good to see![]()
Holy crap thats the first vn-vp v8 ive seen so far that is only a hair whisker away from mine km wise, im currently sitting on 110,000 after owning it from 107,000. Bought for 5500 with rwc (vn v8 calais auto)
Good to prove how the low km v8's perform, youd find a similar one to yours with high kays would pull a 16 sec pass : p
i wana head back to the track , with my new box and the new exhaust system i had put on , if i can crack the 14 mark , and run a few more mph , i think that would be pritty good for a stock engine with a single system and single cat , im also still useing the oem air filter,
can any one tell me what sort of times and mph i would run with something like a raptor blower kit add on to my car
about a 11-12 second pass if your motor and box holds on, and you can drive.
Same as if you put a big crate motor in should run a 12 or so.
Beautiful carNot a bad choice in wheels, either. They're different, and I quite like them. Your number plates are only a few digits away from mine too - looks like you picked up the VP around the same time I got my VQ registered ^_^
Good to see another VP V8 Exec getting aroundStrip some weight out of that baby, and she'll fly ^_^

thanks dude , wen i saw the wheels in the shop i was a bit worried what they woulld look like on the car , but wonce they were on and it was lowerd,i think they came up pritty good and they only cost me $1000, what can i take out of the car to shed some weight, keeping in mind i dont want to draw any attention from the cops , because on the goldcoast there rooting everyone up the arse
do you know where they get people? i dont go out much anymore but id imagine the spit and the surrounding area?
the last 2 weeks on a sunday , if your caught driving anywhere in the surfers area , they take your licence and u have to follow them to there defect station, witch is the boat ramp before the spit , this chick that lives next door to me shes 17 has a stock nissan pintara, they dun her over for not having a battery clamp , thats how pathetic its getting , i guess they need to give as many fines as possible to pay for there, xr6 tyfoons,300c's,trd aurion cop cars
yeah ive got 20% tint i jst havent taken any new photos
i got some vy calipers and rotors put on yesterday, was sick of driving around with the crappy stockos , i think its a must with anyone that has a vn-vs anyway here is some pics
nice and neat mate, and the tint looks great on it, good idea getting the brakes done i was gonna do the same with mine but i converted it to manual so i dont really use brakes anymore lol just let the gears do the slowing down
"A life lived in fear is a life half lived"
nice work on the brakes man this is 1 thing i wanna do 4 sure how much did it set u back?

all up about $550 for everything but i got it all fitted for a bottle of wild turkey coz i know the merchanic and i got the hub adapters pritty cheap $205 delivied to my door
yeah i would like a manual but the price to do a conversion is crazy and a t5 wont support the power ill be chaseing, an i know what some of u will say, put a t56 behinde it, well there more expensive anway a stall behind the auto will be good anyway
got some new 18inch rims yesterday , got a bit bored with the other ones
