i picked this car up a few months ago and thought its about time i started a my ride thread. the car has lived out at Bairnsdale for most its life and so its got all highway Kms on it (230000). and been garaged for the last 9 months which is why the previous owner wanted to sell cause wasnt useing it anymore. most the car is still stock it even had the original factory leads on it. ive Gone over it and fully serviced it replaced all the leads, fluids, filters and so forth. It also already had a Whiteline strut brace in it when i got it.

just getting the car running good and smoothly for now. next step is to get more power out of it and get it looking better... it has a few stone chips in the bonnet from all the highway driving and stuff like that. so i will have to go over it with the claybar soon. any heres the pics.









when i brought the car me and my brother were going over it and found this mouse in the CAI...

Interior looks new, you'd hardly know it had 230k's on it. Im glad i seen this too, as iv been scratching my head as to what grill i have on my vr exec. It has a clubby bar and had a vs clubby grill, long story short it ended up in a panel shop and i bought a new grill for it, which i didnt check just left it in the bubble wrap, when i picked up the car it had the senator grill (which i now know). I like it heaps better, but it had been driving me nuts wondering.

[Galixia]

well i done a few things over the weekend... replaced the O2 sensor, it looked like the original factory one... also went out with my brother and we took some pics of our cars together... after that at home i was reading Macks ride thread and saw in there bout Upper engine cleaning http://forums.justcommodores.com.au/687104-post143.html so i thought i would give that a go considering my car has over 200k's on the clock... and i got a fair bit of smoke from it. i used Redex Petrol, got it from the local Repco shop. should watch the film and see the smoke all the carbon getting burnt out.




and now heres the smokey bit, it was running for a bit before but i cut the film shorter so it wasnt as big to upload
