neat and tidy car, nice starting point

**R0d** · 08-10-2007 08:35 PM

thanks man, havent got any real big plans for it, not gonna spend money on the 6 anyway, but after p's a v8 might just slip in there somehow

Neat car to start off with mate. If you don't do too much to it your better off buying another VS with a V8 in it already. But there is no fun in that. LOL.

thanks mate, i was planning to buy a wrecked vp-vs with a 5litre, do they all use the same setups? and would it be legal to do?

comming home from my mates place and bunch of guys in a p plate falcon threw a egg at my car whilst i was driving, the egg went over the bonnet, window and the roof, meaning i couldnt see where i was going. when i got home i spent about 2hours washing ad polishing the car. I know what the car looks like, so if i see it the guy better be a quick runner

since its a boring sunday i decided to buff/ polish the car again and took a few more photos, had to clean all the inside since my friends find it hard to put their rubbish anywhere execpt inside the car....

**R0d** · 25-11-2007 01:43 PM

i did a few photo shops for colour changes

He is talking about a V8 not a V6. So in theory you could put a Vn 5 Litre motor into a VS.

decided to do a bit of work on the car, changed the belt, pulley and fitted a cai and polished the top of the manifold

I don't know what the laws are in perth but i do know in some states you can only put another motor in your car if its from the same build date or newer.

i'll have to ask around i guess but the conversion might not be happening for a while anyway and by the time i do it vs motors will be fairly cheap

**R0d** · 10-12-2007 09:12 PM

got some vt series 2 side repeaters today

**HoldenManDan** · 10-12-2007 11:07 PM

looking good mate, the clear repeaters suit it nicely. What are your plans with the 5 litre when it happens?

**R0d** · 12-12-2007 09:41 PM

id just put the money in a exhaust and possibly a shift kit and that would be about it, but as we all know once you start spending theres no stopping

**R0d** · 30-12-2007 07:11 PM

just a small update, took all badges off execpt the lion badges, and shortly gonna be on superlows with shortened shocks hopefully, then a transmission flush . Im also looking at some rims to slap on......
