VE SV6
Hi guys. Here's my MY09 VE SV6, and upgrade from my VXII Calais.

Midnight Express Tint.
Wheels are Apec Beast 20".
Got it lowered Friday on Kings - 30mm drop at the front and 40mm at the rear. Thanks to Wholesale Suspension Penrith for the ace job.

Really happy with it. Not a V8, but still has plenty of guts for a 6. Maybe just a bee sting aerial, front lip spoiler and SSV tail lights to come.

and shocks too?

I need to check... It was a 30mm drop in the front, and 40mm drop in the rear. SSLs in the front I'm pretty sure, I'll check and get back to ya. Stock shocks.

The VE has fairly decent shocks anyways. So no real need to change. Lookin good, I thought the rims looked ****, but after it was lowered they looked aight' Not bad ;)

hey nice ride, im really liking the ride height could you please let us know when you get the chance to what the exact springs are being used.

Did you buy the rims or did they come with the car when you purchased it from the previous owner?

Cheers

Yeah really happy with the ride height... aggressive, but not a hectic-mobile. Will check springs when I get a chance. Nah I bought the rims last week. Got some a1 condition SV6/SS 18s for sale if your interested? lol

SSV tails (did you get yours from holmart?), bee sting aerial. No performance mods (until warranty is up lol + until not getting smashed on insurance for being under 24).

If your referring to Wholesale, I'm not really a local. Just heard that their work is that good that I ventured out there. The things we do for the cars we love lol.
