    Hey Luke, cars looking good. I like how you've sprayed the garnish blue looks real good. Wheels look tuff as well. Definitely go with the blue dash it will set it off.

    I suggest you get some high ratio rockers for a bit more go if your not planning in doing major engine work or as nicko suggested start saving for a ls1

    Cheers

    car looks very clean m8, love the height its on. can you legally mod your cars performance with those laws? Those laws suck, was going to drive to vic for a weekend with some m8s but i found out that even though I have a sa licence I cant drive a v8 with two passengers in you state

    It seems like every 2nd green P plater has an aftermarket exhaust. Are you sure they're not legal for green P platers?
