And heres my other 2 beasts as well, thought id post a pic of em cause im real bored!

[Dirbatua]

very nice man, i really love this car, cant wait to see it once you really get to work on her.

[Wagon_Wheel]

Thanks man, yeah i cant wait either, problem is, stuff costs way too much lol!!!!

[pugga]

Cars looking Good mate. how louds the exhaust? Maybe getting a HSV enhanced 5ltr ute soon and will want to put full system on. any power increase and jusy noise? What it cost also if ya don't mind?

[minux]

Nice ride, although i think the original wheels look nicer

[Wagon_Wheel]

I really do love the original wheels now too.... and everytime i see that photo up top with the original wheels i fall in love, but they have a fair bit of scrapes and flakey paint and that sorta thing, they dont look too great up close.

And pugz, just come visit one day ill show ya how loud it is, its loud but not over the top or anything, i think it sounds real nice.
I got the car for $10,700, and it had the exhaust already on it, so i cant tell ya what thats worth, although i think the pacemakers are around 7-800 installed, and its got the stock hsv system on it so yeah....

Ever thought of having them zinc dipped, would look like the VS GTS wheels then. Quick rub back to fix any imperfections, nice dipping and voile!!

[Wagon_Wheel]

Thought about it for a lil bit... but dunno, its a clubby not a gts, if i wanted to keep the wheels original i'd keep em silver, but fixed up and lookin mint.
Ive still got the rims, and im not gettin rid of them.

[grinfked_limo]

NO dont put the corn chips back on man looks way better now with your new rims

Haha my old cars in one of those shots looked so stock next to ures, that one of you and Q2CMY8 is a good one. Good ole franga bunnings aye haha.

[Wagon_Wheel]

Yeah thanks man, lol yeah its a good photo, shannons car is tough!

[Emackulation]

One of the only cars tat look good with the tri spokes, should get them redone and put em back on, oldschool HSV ftw. I am planning to do that with my mags too :P

[Wagon_Wheel]

Yeah original does look good... and im not plannin on keepin those 18's for that long, i want either wh grange wheels in champagne or some sort of 19's, and itll look a ****load better with the rear sittin a bit lower.
Heaps of ppl keep tellin me to ditch the spoiler too, it pisses me off, so dont even bother sayin it to me cause its staying!!!!!

[Emackulation]

Gotta keep the spoiler. Im not a huge fan of spoilers on VN/VP, but since mine is a HSV its saying on, and I like my spoiler. I think VR/S look better with spoilers.

[Wagon_Wheel]

Yeah i agree with ya there, i dont like the ss spoilers on vr/vs though they are pretty lame.
But all the hsv ones rnt too bad.
But the vn/vp is more squarish doesnt look good with a spoiler hangin off it.
And why deface a hsv, it shouldn't happen!

[hsvpunk]

that sigma looks dumped......
WTF is with those pics of mine and ur car together?? that morning was dul as all ****....

Here is a pic for ya geoff.

[Wagon_Wheel]

Thanks markie, those pics look gooooood.
Some photos look like i really really need to lower the ass end, but some dont look too bad.

[vr_owner]

where they taken in mornington?

[Wagon_Wheel]

Yesery bob. Whys that, you from the area?

[Wagon_Wheel]

Mate just sent me a link to sickbunnyphotos.com and they had a pic of my car on there it looks cool, its from c4c4 here it is:

[crazywog]

hey geoff nice ride mate seen ur car in real life at the friday night meet at krispys with the boys looks nice keep it up

[Wagon_Wheel]

Well just had a fidle round after work and ive finally got some bass again lol... Just gonna be using my kenwood 12"s for a while, gonna spend money else where on the car instead of stereo for a change.... Cant wait for a sunroof!!!!
COMON TAX MONEY

[sv9946]

thought i'd better be fair and leave my mark on your thread mate, you've left plenty on mine.
yours is a nice machine too, only thing i reckon is leave the stocky rims on or yeah get some hsv one but 18's or 19's like you've surgested, they always look god the hsv rims.
why did yours get paintd only last year? its seems odd for a vs to had needed to be painted or was the previous owner just really a perfectionist?

[Wagon_Wheel]

Hahaha yeah thanks mate.
Um not entirely sure, but his mate owned a spray joint so id say he got it done dirt cheap and thats probly why, just so it looked even better lol.
Yeah i really want wh grange wheels in champage.... i just dont wanna pay for them new lol, when i track some down with a fair price they'll be mine.

[Morton]

That action shot on the corner looks mad

One helluva mint car you've got there, and it looks the part in person, too. Sounded beautiful at krispy's last friday. You should be proud of that car - because I'm jealous
