Wattos impulse Vz Maloo r8
Howdy been on the forum for a little while just didn't have the net for ages after moving outta home. Thought i might post up a few pics. It's a 2006 Vz Maloo r8 manual that I have had now for two months, I bought it from Melbourne with only 28k on it.
Mods are- lowered
So a blank canvas.
Short term Plans- custom made exhaust comin soon (tax)
- otrcai, unsure what one yet thinking an alloy vcm model... Inputs on what these kits are like could help with decision. Would love the dus kit but they are a bit pricier. (tax and bonus)
- custom mafless tune (hopefully a combination of tax, bonus and back pay owed to me from work.)
All going well Should hopefully be done within a few months.
Any way here is just a few pics

Very clean mate and awesome KM. Barely run in haha!
Best colour too!
Hey mate,
Looks good, nice and clean. Should get a nice little amount of power with those future mods.
You got any pics with the wheels and showing the stance of it??
If you get a chance of got a ute, check it out and tell me what you think.
ZOMBIE
the front end on these are amazing...the tail end haha, looks pretty average however mate to pick up such a nice car in awesome nick with only 28,000 on the clock, unreal! great purchase, i just want one.
look forward to the mods too mate!
Yo.
Forgot to say that it has 19" Vz senator rims, gm rip shifter and ridiculous tex z grip hd clutch which I don't really like but oh well.
I had to raise it when I brought it over from Vic to get It passed so the only pics I have on my phone that are side on is at it's raised height so will have to take some more tomorrow so you can see stance etc. This is the only pic I have at the moment.
Cheers for the comments yeah I'm heaps happy with it and the super low kms are great like you said barely run in.
mad looking ute bro. and the colour.....cant get enuf of it. how are the gears with the ripshifter?

nice ute mate, get up some more pics
VZ UTE
Great find, like jesterarts car its an awesome looking blue, suits the clubby and R8's.
If you are only going with minor mods have you considered a mail order tune.
I fitted a Dus otr and had a Oztrack mail order tune fitted and car went really well, after about 6 months I got Steve from Oztrack to upgrade the tune on the dyno and only gained 4.4 rwkw over his mail order tune, which shows how good his mail order tune was in the first place.

Yeah cheers was a garaged car for it's whole life before I got it barely driven until now as it's my daily. I did look at a mail order tune but decided against it coz as far as tuning I would rather get it done then try doing it myself.
Just a few pics taken on the iPhone this morning before work.
man the front looks tough haha, so nice!
Yo.
new photos look good, the senator rims look awesome on it too.
ZOMBIE
Yeah cheers mate I'm a big fan of them hey. I reckon they suit the Maloo really well. Big fan of factory rims over aftermarket.Originally Posted by ZOMBIE
Yeah im the same, i would choose factory rims over afetermarket any day.
Looks tops.

Well unfortunately I'm not getting back pay which was owed and doesn't look like the bonus is gonna be as much as I expected so it's gonna be probably only cat back exhaust and maybe cai for now depending on how much I get back. But that's better then nothing I spose
The maloos first visit to Bunnings drive-thru looked pretty good with the lighting had to take a pic.
And another one couldn't resist I know I biased but I thought one beast next to another.
Well things have been goin really slowly but hopefully in the next couple of weeks exhaust and cai will be goin on. Fingers crossed nothings else comes up again. Oh and I forgot to reply about the ripshifter with the gears it makes shifting through gears alot sharper especially from 2nd-3rd never miss that gear again.

Looks awesome mate, I'm starting to like the look of the rims more on it... however, next time I'm in adelaide I am stealing your repeaters... realistically, it will save everyone alot of time and trouble if you simply just bought me some instead. This would be better for everyone...The maloos first visit to Bunnings drive-thru looked pretty good with the lighting had to take a pic.

Cammed & Eventualy Blown!
I must say mate thats one nice lawn you got there!Just a few pics taken on the iPhone this morning before work.

Awesome looking Maloo mate, love the Impulse blue! Nice wheels too
What you don't like your repeaters jester?
Cheers for the comments guys. Yeah Lawn looks the best in the street "so does the ute" lol

Nah... they are a bit boring for my liking... the 06 ones look heaps better I think.
Planning on upgrading mine down the track. Though I have a few other things that need my attention before I got onto that.
Cheers mate. Completely stocker so far besides a little lower. Although this will be changing as of tax time.
