    Default good fuel consumption and lights!

    Hi all, just drove over to Adelaide from Geelong for easter and got 10.3 litres per 100 kms fully loaded with luggage and 4 people. happy with that! also the drive from Bordertown to adelaide was in the dark and i was very impressed with my Calais headlights (i have put the H9 65 watt globes in the low beam instead of the H11 55watt with very minor modification to the globe as seen on ls1 forums as a lighting mod)
    very impressed

    i used to live here up until 1994 when we moved to Geelong to be closer to my in-laws so i know adelaide pretty well but prefer the cooler climate in Geelong.

    have you got a link to the light mod? and would it be able to be done to any model VY headlights? eg SS, Berlina, Executive, etc.
