    Default My 355 2tone stato!!!

    hey im luke and this is my beast.

    POWER: untested
    GEAR BOX: stage 2 shift kitted auto,strenghthened internals corvette servos etc.
    DIFFtandard,minispool
    BRAKES: standard
    SUSPENSION: lowered pedders in front,king springs ultra lows in rear
    INTERIOR: full elctrics,grey interior,leather seats,neons under back seats and under dash.
    EXHAUST:twin high flow metal cats,2 1/2 twin system,mandrel bent.

    OTHER MODS: 440cc siemens 45 pound injectors,high rise single plane torque-power manifold,1000cfm 4 barell billet throttle body,mini spool,stage 2 shift kit,clear side indicators,caprice front grille,strut brace,clear front bumper indicators,3 auto meter gauges,18" elanors,rear camber kit,red engine covers,vs S11 rear garnish and tail lights

    as most of u already know that i did have my stato supercharged on 10ps1 making 253rwkw.was awesome but to much pressure n stuff for the stock motor,front seal cracked as well as the rear main and sum gasket,so i sold the charger setup and brought the fully rebuilt 355 motor for 7k.the bloke i got it off spent about 13k on it.it hasnt even been used yet.it goes in my stato 2morro,cant wait.

    Im thinking that maybe a wall on the tyres the same colour as the top of the car would look spot on.

    funny isn't it?
    in one thread everyone likes it and in another everyone hates it
    makes you think doesn't it?

    its a nice ride,
    like most people just not a fan of the big stickers.

    if you ask me, you should have kept the bonnet and roof black.
    something along the lines of this

    sorry for the crap photoshoped pic, haven't had my breakie. so yeah . . .

    get some 19"-20" chrome rims then put the blue walls on. dont know why people dont like the artistic sticker, looks tidy and suits the car. the 17" elanors are doing it no justice tho.
    all those get judged by me, the king of kings..

    cheers buddy,to be honest i never liked the stickers either but as i saw more and more of the cars he did i started to like it and the cars without the stickers looked plain.i got offered to swap for a set of 20" chromies da other day for mine but coz the fronts so low they would rub plus its good with the 18s coz i dont get hasseled by da cops no what i mean.plus tyres r cheaper in 18's lol.
