Stocky's VR Clubsport

[Cobez]

Mine are original and don't have the HSV logo on them. Senators didn't have all the crap stitched on the seats. I think the factory optioned leather buckets didn't have any logo's on them. I have only seen the cloth ones with the logos, never the leather ones.

[stocky]

leather seats didnt get them. also, was reading today. the 250km/h speedo was only for either the VS or the 215i models

[stocky]

also, did VRs get a different spoiler to VS? mines got the same spoiler as geoffs, but saw some VR clubby on JC that seemed to have a SS spoiler or something

[stocky]

like this one
Red 5 speed VR Clubsport
and found this one on ebay that had the same seats

VR HSV's had a spoiler very similar to a VR / VS SS spoiler.

[stocky]

hmm weird. unless series 2 got the VS stuff? my build number is over 1000, so it wouldve been one of the last of the VRs. or else its just been switched at some point. oh well. VS one looks better anyway

[Cobez]

Possibly switched, i don't think the boot spoilers were optioned between the different ones. VS ones look better anyway.

[Wagon_Wheel]

Yeah yours has the vs clubby spoiler.
Thats odd about the seats, i have seen leather seats with embroidery on them before.
Ah well...

[Cobez]

I'd say the ones YOU saw were the ones that had custom **** stitched on by an auto trimmer or something.

[stocky]

yeah only leather ones with stitching would be custom. if they had stiching in our leather it would probably wreck it cause it would have all cracked around the stitches by now lol

[Cobez]

And it would look gay too.

[Wagon_Wheel]

They wernt all stitched, some have HSV stamped or pressed into it, looks bloody genuine to me

[stocky]

picsorban!

[Cobez]

I like the stitched logo on my door inserts, but that's about it. Wouldn't like them on my seats.

[stocky]

update. fixed my power window. new k frame, control arm and castor bar is in. drives a lot better and the wheel sits exactly centre of the wheel arch now. after took the wheel off, we could see that a part of the wheel arch has been stripped back to polished bare metal from the wheel turned.
next to do is the tailshaft and uni joints, and then that will be the majority of the work done. it will just be small bits to fix up for roadworthy along with a wheel alignment

[Morton]

Good to hear it's genuine RWC soon, that's got to be exciting!

[Cobez]

Have you taken that gay Vic Street Scene sticker off the back window yet Mike?

[stocky]

sure have haha. also, picked up a vr clubsport sticker that goes on the rear garnish. hopefully i can get this car roadworthied soon

[Cobez]

Good man. It will pass a RW with that sticker gone

[hsvpunk]

thats the only thing that woulda got u pulled over anyway... nothing else wrong.. just the gay sticker.

*maybe we just talk **** in our car threads... hmmmmm

[Cobez]

Hey Mike, do you have the Clubsport sticker on it yet? Saw a green VR Clubby going down Stud Road through the High street / Stud road intersection towards your place at around 5:30 or so yesterday.

[stocky]

that would have been me got the sticker on a couple of days ago and was heading home around that time to get to work. whats funny is im pretty sure i was thinking "i wonder if ill ever spot cobez around here" at that point

[Cobez]

Hahaha yeah man, it looks good!! Now it's a 100% legit Clubby.

[stocky]

haha. too bad it was bloody filthy. washed it for c4c and less than a week later it was brown from all the rain lately.

also, changed the spark plugs yesterday. i dunno what the previous owner/s were thinking when they changed them. drivers side had the right v8 plugs with a 1.0mm gap, passenger side had all v6 plugs with a 1.5mm gap. WHAT THE ****? anyways, thats fixed, and it seems to run a bit better. noticed a little less exhaust noise when backing off with the clutch in a bit. now all i need to do is fix up the tailshaft, change the oil in the gearbox, and fix up a few small things. oh and put my stereo in from the VN. currently running a sony headunit with stock VR speakers. its ****

[Jecs]

looks perfect stocky.
