- Vn S-Pack Commodore
Hi guys, have been a reader of the website for a while and though i would drop in a few pictures of my 5-Speed VN Spack.
Bought with the idea to compete in the local car clubs events, and was after something reasonably robust.
Found a friend had this just sitting around and just wanted it gone, $250 bills later,
Fast forward about 2 years now, and have done a bit to get it slightly more rally-spec.
List includes;
Bought some Redback extractors, and a good friend made up a 2.5inch exhaust with turndown at the diff.
Spool for the diff to make sideways happen.
Hydraulic handbrake to aid in the sideways ventures on the bitumen.
Series II could packs because that is very race
Cold air intake which was given to me by a very generous cousin.
Huge weight loss mission, (for the car) gutting the interior and removing all the A/C stuff.
And then pretty much just went about driving it.
After a while realised that the standard seats were doing a below average job of keeping me seated so i bought some SAAS racing seats from a good friend.
Then made up some adapting brackets (Cheers Brent)
And bolted the seats down!
So got thinking and decided that the 'turd covered in burnt hair' appearance should change, and that the faithful commy needed a bit of a facelift.
Thanks to Commo Configurator i did a bit of a rough design of which i wanted..
Anyway thanks for the view, and hopefully i will be able to get some more work done on the rig soon (on apprentice budget yay)
Cheers,
Carl
