Am I right in thinking you used to have a blue SV6? I remember the plates, just not on that car. Looks nice tho, What kind of 20's are you thinking of getting?

[Jonesy484]

Yeah another Gippslander, thanks for the kind words. Your red Senator is what got me started in my hunt for one. The 300 you have now looks tops mate.

Isaac: Am I right in thinking you used to have a blue SV6? I remember the plates, just not on that car. Looks nice tho, What kind of 20's are you thinking of getting?

Yeah I did have the blue SV6, it is missed. Once my GF gets her VT Calais the Senator will go from the daily to the weekender and I am looking into some Show wheels or Zenetti Throwbacks. Thanks Mate.

I wasn't a fan of the colour at first either, but it is slowly growing on me, It was really hard to find an M6 Senator so I couldn't be overly fussy, I want a full re-spray in the future in a Kandy Purple or Red/Orange so the more I don't like it the more motivated I get towards the re-spray. Cheers

1 question tho, 6 speed with 3:07 diff gears ?? this thing would be sittin under 1000rpm at 100 clicks ?? i thought manual hsv's came with 3.7's ??

kaneo11:
Thanks mate, Really lovin it at the moment, going from an auto six. Should have got it years ago. Your Senator is stealth as, black GTSs suit it well.

Lazza78:
Thanks for the heads up on the typeo, yeah its got 3.7s in it I am assuming, it does around 1600RPM at 100KM/H.
Love the HBD kit on your VT.

Nice to see another happy senator owner, some nice mods you have and having a manual in one of these must be a buzz.

[NVMYVT]

hope ya enjoy it
