    Default My VZ HSV Clubsport

    Hi there everyone i have recently purchased a new car selling my old Calais to a mate,
    i purchased the car a couple of months ago now but haven't had time to take any pics of it so here it is, i had the car dyno tuned the other day and made 303HP RWHP with a stock engine and a Cat back Manta Exhaust

    Specs:
    6.0l LS2 V8
    Cloth Trim (hate leather)
    6-Speed Manual
    19" Stock alloys
    and all of the HSV Stuff

    What I Have done so far:
    Well having withdrawal symptoms of not having a punchy stereo i had to buy another one as i sold my old car with everything in it (except for the PS3)
    So this is what Ive put in it so far

    New Eclipse AVN726EA DVD/SAT NAV/ DIV X/MP3/USB/I POD/ Double Din head unit
    Rockfordfosgate P300-1 Mono Block Amp
    Rockfordfosgate P400 4 channel Amp
    2x Rockfordfosgate P2 Sub woofers in Custom Box
    Lightning Audio Cap
    MB Quarts Speakers all round
    Clarion Roof Mount Screen

    What i am going to do next
    :

    7" Screens on the headrest
    Maffless Tune
    Stage 3 Cam package
    HID KIT for Hi-Low-Fog lights
    New Genuine 19" VE HSV R8 Rims

    If this had a rip shifter, then Im sure more fun would be had. On a cool nite and dry roads and new 19's, he can change gears that fast with standard shifter that from 2nd to 3rd he chirps it. A rip shifter would be plenty more fun haha.

    He planning to do a cam, extractors, cold air intake and a tune and then it will be really sweet. On the dyno, the operator said the mixtures were rich, so add some mods and make the mixtures normal, then power should sky rocket.

    Hurry up Oatsey and get these mods now!!! lol

    MB Quart speakers sound really good in this car. I guess the speaker choice is dependant on the style and type of music you listen to. In my last ride, I had Type X Alpine as I heard both the Alpine and MB Quart side by side and I preferred the Alpine. But both speakers are decent. Best to go into car stereo shop, take a cd of your style of music and have a listen to all speakers and compare.

    Very nice. Im guessing this isnt simply an analysis gauge ie it can be mounted permanently and the wiring hidden? If so, where/how where you intending to mount the gauge?

    i will be putting the gauge in the standard mounting where my battery and oil gauge is so all the wires will be hidden the gauge plug is the ODBII port under the interior fuse box so you wont be able to see it as for the other gauge i will be putting a exhaust temp guage there cheap and simple!!
