So I ended up Buying my friends Commodore for 2K with 6 months Rego.
Shes a VR Body, VP wiring harness head lights to speedo drive.
The plan for this girl is to be my new daily while i slowly do her up when i got the spare cash
Shes has a neat interior, The Bodies Straight and the paint jobs good.

VR/VN block, Reconditioned 20K ago

Current Mods: Crow cam Package (stage 3 cam, stage 3 chip, Heavy duty valve springs), Home made Twin throttle body
Have some other custom goodies like Sport steering wheel, Skull Gear-nob, After market gauge's

Need to Replace the steering rack, I have a spare one Laying around.
She also has a busted passenger side engine mount.
And is in need of 2 new Tyres.

The Twin Throttle Body cost my Mate $5 bucks to make it himself, Hes pretty Crafty and Inventive.
For the TB set-up I cut out some speaker Mesh cover, and then just cut up a shirt using 3 Layers each and put a little bit off Oil over them..
The Bonnet still shuts with out any problems, Altho I attend to add a bonnet scope so i can use 2 Pod Filters.
Using my current TB filter set-up I find myself cleaning the shirt once a week.

Haven't Been on a dyno yet but the other day i raced a VE commodore 195KW stock.
And i was able to get in front and stay in front the whole time so i'm guessing i'm packing 200KW

Would really appreciate comments and info about the KW Rating
