    Talking My 02 Vx SS Gen 3

    Hi all i joined about a month ago so i thought i would post this up about my ride

    Its pretty stock for the moment just saving a bit of coin so as to be able to do a stereo setup. Also looking at dropping it a little and different rims but these will all come in good time

    Its nice car to drive since my last car was 93 dual cab hilux 4wd so its hell more commfy to drive and a bit more power too

    So at the moment just driving it around enjoyin the power

    Cheers Dave

    I have just finished putting the stereo in the commo WHAT a job that was

    Too many bloody screws to hold the dash together but only have 2 left over so not to bad (will Search for them one day )

    Have not really finished of the back of the sub box yet still have to tidy up the wiring and put it into place with chrome plated saddles should look good when its finished.......

    Bloody system sounds bloody UNREAL
    Not even tuned properly yet so it should sound good

    Here are a few pics. Until i finish it and put the neons into place

    What do you guys reckon ????????? Be Gentle only new to this




    P.S I know the screen is dirty gotta clean it

    Nice job, looks like you didn't have to drop the struts too much. Do you have to remove the brace to put the engine cover back on, or are you leaving it off?
