I know thats why i've had my hands on 4 VP Calais now, check the three in my profile and my two in this forum. Other then sound system the interior's is spot on and there's only like two things different to the VQ stato. While on holiday in the ACT i saw this ugly as white VP SS at a second look it was a VP CAL INTER missing all centre caps and badge's on the side of the road, i think i may have shed a tear for her.

But whats the difference between 20's or a gen 3, neither are factory n both can rape your car if not fitted correctly mate.

Can I ask where you got your twin dump pipes from? And what size are they?

They were on the car when I bought it mate, you can pick them up from most exhaust places and Autobarn I believe, I'd assume they would be 2.5 inch.

I bet the mini spool's fun to drive

Yeah they are, dangerous for a P plater like me though, I'm a sensible driver but having bald tyres on the rear it's quite easy to slide out in this weather.

[ducker85]

when i got mine it had a hot trans with stage 2 shifty and the LSD 3.55 diff, first day after a light shower when through a roundabout hit second full sideways with no effort. Scared me to death there was so many cars watching me!
