    I was looking at your thread the other day. Perfect car! I bet the LS3 would be a lot of fun too.

    I know, I test drove a couple of ls1s. After I tried the 6 litre there was NO GOING BACK. Very noticeable torque gains, heaps more power in low revs and much more punch

    When I bought mine I was keen for a 6ltr but the price difference was just a bit out of my reach.
    Going from an ecotec, I'm happy with the LS1 for now ahaha.

    I wouldn't either. Have driven a mate's Golf GTI recently and it has lots of punch, but it's still not a v8. It is turboed - imagine a v8 turbo!

    Cheers mate,

    Yeah yeah that's me. You live northside? Haven't seen your ride around.

    I haven't put the splits in yet ......... I'm probably going to put the Pioneer's in the rear doors and look at getting maybe a set of JL audio's for the front. I'm just waiting for the $$$ to do it, and I'm not sure if you can put splits EASILY into the rear doors? I'm pretty sure 6' splits in the front wont be a problem. Although I'm not installing it, auto sparkie will be.

    Yea live in Kallangur - my vz don't get out too often mainly weekends and to willowbank during the week..you would probably recognise my silver VL (I call it the shitter) I use that for work around the area hence why I see your car..
    BTW at least you get that stand alone carpark up at westy's - so no idiots opening their doors and scratching it.

    True.

    Is your VL a Calais too? Love VLCT's. One of my favourites!

    Yeah, my single car park ensures I don't get pregnant mums nailing my car with their Pajero doors.

    Yeah I know. Need it ASAP! When I have the cash I'll head to power torque.

    Yeah it's a custom 3 inch. Need to get under the car and give her a clean too.

    Some awesome photo's in here! Looks awesome. Painted calipers would set off those rims too. 44 days until we can head out. My first legal day is a Saturday, sure hope I'm not working.
    Got your HID's yet?

    44 days. Not long now.

    Yeah I chucked the HID's in. Bright as F***. Look and perform 100X better than the standard ones. White Parkers are in transit, will be good when they get here.
