Looks good mate, and manual to. Would look good with some new rims when the banks looking better.
*Guess who*
My car would beat it in reverse.
yeah BookMe pity auto's only work in reverse... put em in drive and they are a massive fail
btw my car would beat yours up Mt Ousley in neutral
Yea with it sitting on my front bumper and me pushing it up lol.
hahahaha i think mine would be towing yours... yours would have run out of power and torque by about 500rpm
you shoulda bought a vy and been cool like me lol
yeah theres no other mods to the engine other than the exhaust so it shuold be a bit more interesting once i get the intake doneinteresting dyno sheet...
Looks like mine! Nice car's they are![]()
Get some new pics up. Like the brakes and foggies or something. Or you want me to put pics up of mine and you claim its yours?
its filthy at the moment so ill get some pics this week when i get it clean lol... i was going to wiat till i lowered it and take the springs out and claim it had bags lol but i cant lower it now cause it scrapes bad coming out of the driveway with the new exhaust which sucksGet some new pics up. Like the brakes and foggies or something. Or you want me to put pics up of mine and you claim its yours?
Sounds like you need some of those metal planks that some people have on the driveways/gutters. Or just bag your car. I could get it done for you over the weekend +a million dollars.
problem is that it scrapes only when going out and its under the centre of the car... lol and im not keen on bags they look good but i prefer springs
ok so heres some pics... not the best but once i get it really clean and hopefully get a better camera

looks very nice and those black rims really look good on it
yeah took me a while to find them cause i just wanted a simple 5 or 6 spoke wheel... unfortunately they arent that common lol or i dont know where to looklooks very nice and those black rims really look good on it![]()
very nice my Vy looks pretty much the same but without the mods, im just staring to doing some now
hey what Calipers have you got ?
and nice rims I like the red ring on them
They are the stock calipers just painted RED for the extra 25kw lolhey what Calipers have you got ?
This also needs SS headlights. Try Car Parts - Body Kits - Spoilers - Rear Wings ...and more Car Parts | Sydney Special Vehicles || Sydney Special Vehicles
Might be cheap on there.
Ps. I sold my car.
Its not that loud down low cause its just got the middle resonator and rear muffler but up higher in the revs it gets louder. sounds pretty good for an ecotec.hey mate how does your exhaust sound ?
just wondering because im going for the same kinda setup, how did you get the high flow cats fitted ?
the cats were welded in as part of the catback so the only join is at the extractors or halfway through the cat back. you can get some that are bolt ins though. A member on here Not an abba fan is his name sells exhausts that bolt in so you could contact him if oyu wanted one
I almost bought them a month ago but i went brokeThis also needs SS headlights. Try Car Parts - Body Kits - Spoilers - Rear Wings ...and more Car Parts | Sydney Special Vehicles || Sydney Special Vehicles
Might be cheap on there.
Ps. I sold my car.i kinda wanna get the spoiler off the boot too and see what it looks like then.. i think it would look better but i dont want to do it until i can get the boot holes filled
i can get em on ebay for about $120 i think so i might get some now that i got some overtime this month... that and possibly a cold air intake just to neaten up the engine bay as it looks like a dogs breakfast at the moment
Looks good mate!
I was suprised by your dyno sheet going wtf 118RWKW stock.. then I realised it's manual.. Mine pulled 109.8RWKW stock..
Edit: I think it was a power happy dyno lol.. I dunno how you pulled 12RWKW from an exhaust upgrade, but i went 2 1/2 inch exhaust, pacemaker extractors etc and i went from 109.8 to 115.5.
yeah it was a dyno dyanimcs dyno so apparently they do like to over estimate the power a bit... so you got high flow cats and everything else as well? dunno why they would be so different other than the dynos and yours being an auto
although my cats and all are welded in if it makes any difference
