    Default Black VS SS, got new wheels today!

    Hey every one!

    I got new wheels today! Let me know what you think! I think they look tuff as! White on black looks sweet! The deep dish on the back looks tuff I think.

    Also check out my other pics. Since my first post, I have tinted the windows, painted the engine covers, fitted K&N Air Filter, 2.5" Cat Back exhaust (SOUNDS TUFF), wheels and lowered it! I have also almost fitted the oil pressure gauge! Just gotta fit the T piece and its all done! Having a little trouble with it but. Hrad to reach.

    Let me know what you think of my new ride guys...and girls!

    Cheers

    Matt

    I got the wheels new from Wheel Worx.

    I am so happy with them, I have been waiting for a whole week! I love the look it now has! I'm like a kid in a candy shop!

    Has any one hooked up an oil pressure gauge in the 5lt befor? If so any pointers!!??

    Cheers

    I almost got the black instead of the white. I think I have made the right choice!

    I'll have to come on a cruise for sure mate!

    Ill have to do more reading and find out when the next one is!

    ANy one with a 5lt want to buy an exhaust!!??

    My mate gave me his old one, it was off his VP International. Its twin, stainless from the cats, no mufflres, just twin hot dogs! It is so loud, louder then my car. He gave it to me for nothing, but i chose not to put it on knowing how loud it was!

    I am looking at putting it on ebay, tomorrow.

    wagon wheel!

    Mate im not sure, this is my second ever holden, used to be into Jap cars, but I am over them! My other holden was the VY SV8, manual. Loved it and should never had sold it. BUt I love the vs ss heaps more. This is car number 14 for me! I love cars so much man (DONT WE ALL)!

    Future mods, not too sure. I would like some more power. So i think a chip, cam etc. But I havea pretty crap record of keeping cars. usually only have them about 6 months and get bored of them.

    But I think ill keep this one for a while!

    I would also like to do a bet install in the boot. The sub is just siotting in the spare tyre well and the amp is screwed up underneath the parcel shelf. Atleast it is out of the way

    wheels look great! As for the oil gauge, why bother? Unless you are looking at it exactly when the pressure drops it's too late anyway. Besides that, its just more information to be paranoid about.

    The wheels are 18"x8.5" on the front and 18"x9.5" on the back!

    I just like the look for the oil pressure gauge. At night the green looks saweet!

    What brang of springs do most people use? I got pedders and I am happy with the ride height!

    thanks VR304!

    I am not sure about the exhaust. It was on a VP Calais International 5lt. I can ask him and let you know.

    He wants about $300. It has been off the car for about 2 years but wa all wrapped up. It is stainless. I gave it a quick clean up. It is so loud!

    I can take a photo tomorrow and send it to ya?
