which lpg system did you opt for? vapour injection or liquid injection?

Nice car mate. What do you think of your exhaust? Recommend it?

Thanks, was happy with how the green turned up, did black along the bottom but wasn't happy with how it went, might have to sand right back and try again... I got the factory kit, i don't have a huge budget and if i wanna flog it i'll just switch back to petrol...


Dukey, Exhaust is good, has no resonator at the back. Happy with it for $175, i just gotta find a decent looking tip with a 2 1/2 intake without spending a fortune (if anyone knows of any, supercheap and the like only stock 2 1/4 bast*rds)

Very nice clean car mate, I'm picking up one identical on Saturday

Also looking at the VE SS rims will watch your car and see how they look for sure.

Cheers.

Rims will be a while, probably towards the end of my list, maybe when they release the new series so old rims come down.

Where you at? How much you pay if you don't mind me asking? Mine was $12500 with 140kms about a month ago.

Not gonna believe this, but identical price and km range. All it needs is a replacement steering wheel as the struts are work badly back to white, and someone has debaged the S so I will need to do that (simple fixes). Only other options mine has is that it has reverse parking sensors.

Ha! well i guess i didn't get ripped off then, or we both did. Nah I'm happy with it. Yeah i have a few marks on it where it looks like somethings eaten into the paint work but I'm actually taking them off and painting them green like the rest to fix it. Good luck, if you have any questions about it just ask, and if you got any advice would appreciate it

Do you mind posting a how to on this for a vy/vz? I know there is one for the VT i think but I wanted to know how to do the cluster surround and the wheel spokes. Help is great.

btw, it looks great!

Nice work mate, excites me for tomorrow when i (finally) pick mine up.

Got lpg conversion today!!!! Will have to wait and see how economy changes, happy with how the system integrates with the car.

How's the LPG bud in terms of economy?

Also did i read you did some interior LED's recently? Any images?
