Anybody have suggestions of mods? as im new to owning a holden, thanks

[Whitesack07]

Nice ride mate, what i would suggest lower the back so its sitting level, i wouldnt add a body kit maybe just change the front bar to a ss one with fog lights in it, will make the front look better

[Cameron P]

he does have an ss bar.. just get foglights and lower the back as whitesack suggested

[Whitesack07]

he does have an ss bar.. just get foglights

danm yeh i just got the in the mail this morning and mates alrdy told me its a 250$ fine, what a load of bull, looks nice at night shame can't use them whilst driving though will post pics up soon,

anyone got ideas for power figures for a v6? i got 15k spending money ( Compo Claim ) doesnt mean i gotta spend 15 k just want peoples ideas, cheers

[Whitesack07]

i would say supercharge it mate, thats just me but im not sure how much more power you can get out of a ecotec

[paynetrainvy]

I'd save the $15k do cosmetic things to your ute then when your off your P's get a SS or a maloo

[Whitesack07]

oh he is still one his p's? i didnt know that, yeah mate just save it for a ss or maloo when you get off your p's or drop in a v8 once on your opens, im putting a ls3 into my ute when i get onto my opens

[ADONIS]

I'm in SA and im 20 on my P's so there's no restrictions for me buying a v8 etc, i just couldn't find a decent ss that wasnt thrashed around the 20-25k mark when i brought my storm, and i looked at afew maloo's for 28k and they where thrashed aswell so i just decieded to buy a clean v6 from an older driver, so u guys reakon dont worry about power? i'm cashed up so i might try convince my gf to sell her car and we both chip in for a VE SS or something n work from there, is there any minor power mods i could do to my storm though?, nothing drastic i just find that my storm doesn't pack much of a punch, its got extractors with a catback ehaust and it sounds mental but the sound doesn't match the power :-(

[ADONIS]

Btw Whitesack07 i love the colour of ur car :-) it's awesome

[Whitesack07]

To be honest nothing that's value for money, extractors an exhaust is the first thing after that if your after serious gain you could supercharge it but again it's alot of money for reasonable gain. If your after alittle bit of a kick look into some MACE products, there reasonably priced and give you a little gain in power.
