    Default VS Statesman Series II 5L

    Hey guys, this is my ride, I've had it since April, it's my second car first being a 1992 VP Executive, needed a slightly nicer, more luxurious set of wheels and settled on this.

    Motor is bone stock at the moment aside from a K&N Panel filter.

    It runs dual fuel, gas tank is in the boot.

    50Wx4 Pioneer head unit, 300W Pioneer 6x9's, 220W Pioneer 6"s, no subwoofer...yet.

    The suspension and rims were done by a previous owner.

    And I've had a 3" exhaust system fitted with a single muffler and a high flow cat makes it sound absolutely nuts and damn worthy of the badge under the side indicators.

    I'm hoping to have it stroked to 355ci and turbo'd. But as for now I'm still paying it off.

    Got personalised plates coming in the next week or so too "XST80".

    Yeah, that's in the future plans, I'm pretty set on a set of Dolce DC-12's, plenty of chrome will suit this kind of car perfectly.

    Quick photo update, haven't changed much since last time, just the plates I think. Washed it today and took some happy snaps, hoping to get into modifying it soon but I lost my job not long ago, so modification is on hold for know, still new pics, tell me what you think.

    Yeah I know, the front bars a bit rooted too, it's actually got small bits of panel damage everywhere actually that's the only downside to it, the plastic in the front lip is bent and scratched, theres a slight dent in the front right quarter panel, the scrape you mentioned on the rear bumper, there's a scratch in the rear left quarter panel. All of it bar the scratch on the rear bumper were there when I bought it, that one happened cause I thought I was further from a concrete beam than I actually was, luckily I was only rolling slowly so it's really just cosmetic, sand back and repaint and it'll be fine.

    I'd fix the front and rear bars now, but I want Series 3 bars down the track so I'm just gonna put up with the scrapes and shit for now. Thanks for the comment too. =]
