    Best bang for your buck... Nitrous. Haha, however I'm assuming your looking for something more street legal and safe? Are you goverened by any P plate restrictions, if so what are they?

    PS. Upload some pics and more info (V6, V8, etc etc)

    this is a beast.
    but i would agree on dumping it.
    if you don't mind me asking how expensive was this?
    like just a range if you don't want to put a number on it.
    cause i am looking for a vs or vu ute for my first car and just wondering a price range.
    was it hard to find a manual mate?
    cheers.

    yeahhh man i bought the auto trader everyweek for about 3 months. i also looked around almost every night on carsales.com.au. i ended up finding it through carsales.
    my budget was 10,000 but i ended up paying 13000. i first thought i could only afford a vs but i was told to go vu so i looked long and hard and found it only done 80,000kms.
    seek and you will find
