My vr commodore 1993

[Ghost]

So here is a pic of my ride as is untill I do some upgrades during the year

[aussie4life11]

ur tyres are to fat for ur rims lol. u gotta get low profile one there stat. lol. and you posted in the wrong section dude, should post in show off your ride

[Ghost]

Oh well too bad lol and I like the size of the tires Im not a fan of low profile tyres I like real rubber on the road

[Fenix_Longbow]

Put up what you have done to it what it has had done to it and then put your list up... Will not upset as many ppl then lol!

But nice start btw. I did spy you have slotted rotors... But i would go a couple of profiles lower, you dont need them ultra low profile cause your ride will get a lot harsher. i Would prolly drop the profile by 10

See how you go there I have just put some pics of the mods and other bits n pieces of my car in profile if you want to take a look

[Ghost]

Just goes to show I don't notice much I didn't even know they were slotted

[Ghost]

So mods to come to start with will be rear tail lights and a hid kit for the exterior then I will get another engine in July to strip and start rebuilding in between then there will be a digital tacho going in and possibly a digital temp guage I'll also be getting blue LEDs for the dash

[Fenix_Longbow]

This i know from my Jap origins but there is a brand called Defi that make a HUD (heads up display) that can actually shine up onto your windscreen that can do your speed, revs, engine temp... Im not sure if it does anything else but these guys make the sexiest gauges i have seen

Used a lot of these when i went thru my boy-racer crisis after owning an STI and an r33 gtr.

Defi – Exciting products by NS Japan | Gauges and displays for vehicles

[Ghost]

Is it legal?

[Ghost]

Just been looking seems the HUD won't work with the vr the port on the vr is obd2 but reads as obd1 which falls into obd1.5 lol so looks like I'll stick with the guages

[Ghost]

But I did find this

[Fenix_Longbow]

Technically not having any gauges is not illegal... I have spent that last 12 months driving my car with no speedo in it! Just as long as you know approx what speed your doing relative to your engine revs in each gear, you will be right. I used to drive to sydney and back every second weekend from Young which is like a nearly 4 hr drive. Plus over to bathurst and back numerous times.

Actually i have been fine free for over 3 years now I am overdue for one though....

As soon as my new front bumper is on and full painted i will be throwing her up in here to have a gawk at. Personally im interested in doing a complete statesman interior upgrade in mine which covers your door skins, centre console, dash, glove box. I will also include a level 3 gauge cluster, climate control, power windows etc...

All in nice woodgrain finish if i can find it in good enough condition

Like you i will buy the bits and pieces here n there when i find them and then make a weekend of it. All help is welcome and id shout for the grog...

Where bouts do you live mate?

[Ghost]

I'm in Adelong less than an hour from wagga been to long since I've been to young to remember how long to get there

[Ghost]

And as far as the guages I was talking about the HUD lol

[Ghost]

If my dash stopped working I'd be fine I can use my laptop and cable to show the speed And revs and stuff
I might not get the guages and just try to integrate a small laptop into the car somewhere

[Fenix_Longbow]

It can be done actually. I am at the moment making a cable to be able to display such info onto a DVD 5" screen Its for a mate that has bought a kit car, he wants to have 2 of these screens where the normal cluster goes. One that has the revs, temps and the other to have speed and pressure. Im just having a hard time being able to split the screens from the one source...

[Ghost]

Lol but what car unless it's compatible with these old commos then not much good but if you can do it and you figure it out let me know I'll be interested

[Ghost]

Just came across these suckers

[Ghost]

Weren't even wired up right

[Ghost]

So just an update I've got a lvl 3 cluster coming and patch wiring loom and blue led globes for my interior upgrade

[Ghost]

The cluster turned up today but it's the wrong one for my car doing a swap though so all good blue LEDs will arrive tommorow and loom by friday now next week will be the fun on wed I'll be sending the cluster off and putting in my loan for 1000 750 after dads paid back lol

[Ghost]

With the 750 I'll be buying a Gtech unit to check things out
A rewritable memcal
Hid kit
Auto headlight module
And maybe a couple of other things

[Ghost]

Ok so what I listed no longer applies ive now secured a clubsport body kit ill be buying clear headlights and globes wont have much after that but at least it will start to look good

[Ghost]

Here is my level 3 cluster arrived today took 3 hours to install lol looks awesome

[VS_Pete_1]

The level 3 cluster looks so much better.

[Ghost]

Yeah sure does had my power steering screw up on Saturday so I gotta fix that lol my philips extreme globes turned up today so I'll install them also and got a gps tracker coming from hong kong on its way
