    &k is an awesome price for such a rare car (350 units i think)

    Shame about the drivers seat, will be hard to replace that in the same trim colour.
    Need more pics in the daylight, exterior, interior, everything

    He means find a stock airbox, and get rid of the pod filter
    And by premium he means the petrol you use, which has a higher octane rating.

    Wheels you could probably get $800 for, if they have decent tyres.

    pod filter will just be sucking in hot air. Just get a stock cold air intake and the normal airbox. Some p plater might even swap you for the pod....lol

    looks like it's faily stock mate (which is good for you) seven grands damm cheap for a car worth around 12-15 grand. because the pod sucks hot air off the motor and you want to put cool air into (the idea with intercoolers on turbos n charged cars) fit a good cool air mouth and standard box with a high flow filter like KN or redline.

    In my opion keep the wheels so you have them later on down the track should you want to sell it, my Dad's got a VP international and we are having a hard time finding the proper VP wheels, bvut lucky we found what we need just need to pick them up.

    I was going to suggest the same thing, leave the wheels in the shed. Being an original international, they'd have somewhat a more original feel than the 400,000 reproductions that have been made.

    And that wheels isn't going anyhere, take your time

    not really mate i'll be reading up alot on FIT's web site and there stick with the standard air box to the point where they just make a few small mod's to it instead of a pod, the pod collects hot air from the engina for as long as it's inside the engine bay (maybe put it low behind the front bumper??) where a cold air scoop get's air from outside flowing thru the bonnet gap into the filter (use a high flow 1) and it just gets colder air into your engine which is better

    not really it's still protected by the front bumper (dont go any lower then the bumper of corse) as for air flow i'd put the standard box in withCIA cos you still need air flowing to the pods and i don't think there's many cut outs in the VT front bumper
