Heres my project car Ive had for just over a year..

So far Ive fixed all the leaks and tidied up alot of the wreckage that the previous owners had done like ripped carpet, wires taped together, missing buttons and a whole lot more..

Just did the front sway bar links with a heavy duty unit and replaced all shocks with Munro sports and King Springs lows.. Handles very well for a street car

More work being done as we speak and much more to come...

Looks like some decent dish on the rear. What size/offset are they ?

Any interior pics ?

Very clean, You need to remove the fake braid over your radiator hose though & change the "primer grey" of the intake manifold.

Apart from that, Nice base. Always liked the VR HSV styling.

Very Nice. I like your tidy engine bay (except for the fake braid of course) engine covers look good.
What part of NZ you in??

Yea I plan to buy the proper braided hose or may go for a silicon hose set but for now it will do. As for the grey manifold, its the closet grey to the grey inserts on the Hsv body kit which is also the colour I got the rims painted in. I like to carry a theme rather than a bitsa car.... Rims are 19x9.5 on the rear and 43 offset.

If anyone can let me know where a nice braided top rad hose is that can be supplied to NZ, I will be greatful!

Oh yea, as said- the manifold is the HSV grey and the covers are the same blue as the car.. I get free paint through my work and done it myself.. And im in Tauranga in NZ

Cool, I will message you sometime for a meet up with some other Auckland & Waikato forum members.
I think it is about time we all had a catch up again.
