    Thumbs up My Sexy S-pack

    My New VT S-pack i got my grubby hands on thursday, already i've put a monaro frount bar on it, XHP jet 18inch rims. other then that its been kept immaculant by its previous owner. its got a getrag 5speed behind the solid lil ecotec motor =)

    speaking of the motor i've put a cold air intake and k&n filter in it, just to help it breathe

    on my list of things to do, a full exhaust system is ontop, as well as a 30% window tint, lower about a inch all around, camber kit for the rear end ... but for now its my lil peace of heaven =)










    Any feedback would be awsome! give me some ideas ( except convert to a V8... grrr !! )

    Nice one, congrats, I love the look of the s. Not sure about the monaro front bar, but I suppose it does look modern.

    list of things that would be awesome,

    coulsons
    maybe monaro mags to go with the front end, ( l like the factory look. )
    sunroof.

    blower.

    and tint the windows as fast as you can...

    Custom brake lights. Make sure you get a new panel for the back from Holden though.

    thanks guys =) window tint and lowering is on the list of things to do ! very quickly may i add

    i wouldn't mind turboing this girl .... but thats a long way down the track ...

    i've been thinking bout a exhaust system, pacemaker extractors/high flow cats/ single 2 and a half inch exhaust ( with a single sports muffler ) ... what u guys think?

    sounds good. but i agree with not doing the twin throttle. there's no point if your engine can only suck in a certain amount of air according to how big the (can't remember the name now) opening on the intake to the engine, attached to the back of the throttle is. you can have 10 throttles and your engine will still only suck in what the engine piping diameter can fit. sorry for the non-technological terminology lol. it's still early

    got tint going on wednesday =)
    got a price for a full custom made exhaust system $1100 ..... getting done at the muffler man in tamworth. i've seen this guys work and he does awsome jobs =)

    also i've decided to not go with the twin throttle bodies but put a gator 70mm trottle body, just to open it up more.

    pics will be put up this week hopefully of the new tint =) and interior ( doing a lil home job on the interior .... but thats secret hehe )

    well replacing the duelmass flywheel with the ridgid flywheel has made a world of diffrence, the clutch is alot more aggressive ( which is great ) ... makes a little more noise then the duel mass bet meh ... its sounds mean when you get under it hehe. but the main advantage with all of this. if my clutch decides to throw it in again. i can machine the flywheel =) ( duel mass flywheels can not be machined and if your clutch throws it in .. you gotta replace it too = $1600 at the least ) so im on happy street now =)

    took 4 hours to remove the gearbox, take the clutch and flywheel off. prep the new items to go in, install them and refit the gearbox and fit everything... leaving work at 10pm have it a squirt, not only did it rev..it actually spun ! whooooo no slip now hehe

    but now came across another problem =( clutch master cylinder is leaking ... best price so far is $155 so i'll deafinatly take that ... best by about $100 =)

    well havn't been on here in a while ... put 5,000 km's on the commy since i got it. did its 110,000km service today and running like a dream, cars booked in to have windows tinted not next friday but the friday after. then getting a full exhaust system ( pacey extractors, normal cat then 2 and a half inch single system with 1 muffler ) should sound good and be ready for motorkhana in armidale, go have a bit of fun on the skid pan day =)

    From my understanding the stock cat flows pretty well so no real point in replacing them unless they are damaged.
