    Default Whitesack's VX SS

    Hey guys, this is my Vx ss that ive had given to me by my mother as she has got a work car an no longer needing it an she wants to keep it in out family cause we have had it since new, hasnt got many mod or future mods atm cause im working on my 4x4 first, so here it is

    Name: Izak

    Age: 19 (before you guys start saying "you cant drive it" i have an exemption from the RTA cause its our only family car :P)

    Model: 2002 VX Series II SS

    Colour: Red Hot

    Exterior: All Standard

    Engine Type: 5.7L LS1 V8 with 126k on the clock

    Engine Mods: None, as of yet.

    Diff: Stock LSD

    Brakes: Stock

    Gearbox: Auto 4spd

    Suspension: Standard FE2

    Wheels/Tyres: Stock 17" VX SS wheels

    Interior: Standard

    Future mods: Remove spoiler, An fix all the little things that are wrong with the body kit, Change inside lights to White bulbs, New Head lights, Monaro Tail lights, Bigger brakes, Otr, 25% under drive pully, full exhaust an a tune, Coilovers, 19 inch SSV'S or VE GTS, HID Kit, Leather Seats from hsv or VY/VZ, sound system an some sound deadener of course, Maybe manual conversion not 100% sure yet, an a complete respray in turismo blue or something different pretty keen on Turismo blue though haha, then a dash light conversion to match what color i end up spraying Thats pretty much what i can think of for now, will add more though haha

    Only thing not standard about it, is that it has a exhaust for the rumble of a v8 an thats about it, its gonna be a sunday car for me as ive got my 4x4

    This is the only photo i have of it, its raining now, when it stops ill get some new ones of it , also this photo is only iPhone quality :/

    Just been thinking lately on what I'm gonna do to this, haven't driven it much cause the rain has washed my drive way away an I can't get out in it, so it's just been sitting in the shed, been thinking I might save up an get some airbags front an back an some ssv's long term things but gonna keep it for awhile I reckon, was gonna sell it an get a Vz clubby but I can do so much to this with the money I would be using to get a clubby

    Dont do it, not worth it, only got this cause it was cheap, but gonna give it back to mum when i get another car, i hate the interior compared to the vz, this is so basic, save the bit extra an get a vy or vz, you wont regret it

    I could be abit biased lol, but the vx ss isnt much different to the base model vx, i prefer the vy/vz, but then thats just me, everyone is different
