nice clean car mate, dont do what i did and waste money on getting the little 6 to go hard, the money will be best invested in a v8 when you get off your p's
A nice set of deep dish 19's or 20's would set this off nicely ;)

Thanks mate. Yeah don't plan on doing much more for performance, the mods are expensive and you don't gain all that much. Yeah the 20's are the next thing i'll be getting :) Im thinking black wheels but still haven't decided

Update

Done a few things to the car over christmas..
- SS Headlights
- SS Tail Lights
- Fog lights
- Complete stereo upgrade

When i ordered the fog lights i wasnt too sure about doing them myself but after being quoted $500 by an auto electrician i decided to give it a go. i got them mounted while installing the headlights, then ordered a new switch and relay from holden. Put the new switch in today and they worked. So anyone wondering about putting them in yourself.. Just do it! (mine was simpler as its a series 1 so the wiring is already there)

Also soon to have SSV 19's in a week or two :)

Pictures soon, need to make a photobucket account as the attachment thing says they are too large..

Not on my old car, I had to wire it from the lights to the relay, then to the battery/switch.

The car was a 2002 December model.
