    Nice ride mate!

    Love VR Clubbys! One thing i dislike about them, the big CLUBSPORT at the back! Keep those wheels on it, or go some VS Senators, nice K's too, must sound bloody nice.

    Good luck.

    Nah,I personally love the big clubsport across the back,I like the VRs better for that reason lol,and yea,it sounds unbelivable....quite loud,but still has a real deep grumble to it.I got a few mates with Gen 3 commos,and they would kill to have my 5 litre superior exhaust note....

    I love the big CLUBSPORT decal. Still decieding whether to go VS or VR clubby pretty much on that one thing haha. However the VS wing looks better.

    Its all 215 models, VR and VS. (so GTS and Senators, not sure if clubbys had the 215 option.)

    There talking about on the speedo, not between the speedo/tacho. Had the opportunity to pick one of these up cheap, but waited too long. Will just get another VS one so both cars match
