    haha its clean again minus some paint thats back to metal.

    new rear bar. lip kit back on. buffed the whole car. removed door moulds.

    next is new exhaust. nitrous.

    then prob rebuild with stroker crank when it blows.

    will be at cruise for charity this weekend.

    I like the new ride, looks nice with the filter coming out of the bonnet. How does it go running such high compression? What have you done to stop detonation? I presume the manifold helps, have you got alloy heads as well?

    stocky- lol. the vn was on the street for a day and it got canaried and epa'd. having more luck with the VR though its been on the road for bout 2 months now and no probs. heaps of difference with the manifold. definately recommend it.



    betts- no alloy heads and its all tuned by EFI dynamics in lilydale. highly recommend. ive thrashed the shit out of it and it hasnt blown yet
