Whats the big problem(s) with facing the sub foward?
I was planning to do that to my VX.

lol economy, I would hate to see it in power mode.

I have it sitting on 15.2L / 100km at the moment, in my defense I do 7km's to work and 7km's back to home, just coming down the street to my work the temperature has just come up to 'normal' operating temperature which can't be doing it a great deal of good. I have hopefully going to go away for a few days so the fuel economy should really shine then.

I tend to be fairly sedate with the pedal but being stuck in traffic most of the time tends to send it through the roof despite the short distance.

Note the sub can face any way, provided the polarity has been set up to work with the other speakers, or else you will "cancel" the soundwaves.

Very nice. Is that aftermarket leather? It looks too good to be factory. Have you got anymore photos of the leather interior?

Coming along very nicely Darren, so much easier when you start off with a great platform the S/C 6 :). For $800 for a set of 16" tyres they would want to be dam good tyres. Dam nice colour Quicksilver.

Yes, it's original Holden leather, silly me left my windows down and got crap from tree's on it the other day (not happy), now I just need to find some good leather cleaner.

I don't have any other pics but I'm sure I could grab some more.

It certainly is coming along nicely, a few things left to do and then I'll enjoy it I think.

They were Yokohama C.drive which aren't too bad actually ($205 or $210 each from memory), still with the extra power from the mods it's not difficult to spin them off the lights without even thinking, traction control cuts in backfiring it's guts out and off we go again.
