VE SSV Z SERIES
Well, newly signed up here and time to start a thread for my latest addition.
Had it for a week now and I love it.
Completely stock to look at, only done 61,000 km
Top end work with chains, springs etc. Cam is 227/239 on 114 lobe (maybe lol it’s what I was told but unconfirmed), Magnuson 1900 Supercharger, built auto with 3200 converter, Pacemaker Headers, Difilippo 3” exhaust.
Making 375KW atw and 945NM from 3500rpm.
Soon to come will be a rear lip spoiler, suspension and a wheel change (already have the rims in the shed, just need tyres).
I think that will be all for this one, the good stuff was already done!
More pics as things eventually happen.

HSV VS Maloo , 2002 Monaro
Nice, looks good , very entertaining to drive, would be very compelling to even keep total stock look and therefore be even more under the radar , both for unwanted attention but also unsuspecting victims . That wine of a supercharged engine is soo addictive , together with the low down grunt of valley/ positive displacement type superchargers=happy days

It is very addictive, I agree!
The stock look was considered but the wheels just don't do it for me.
Plus the poor Conti 245's have no chance.
Will be putting the HSV SV Forged rims on once I get the coin for some Michelin Pilot Supersports.
Not going crazy low, easily adjusted with the coilovers.

Well, it is Saturday!! I love these lip spoilers, once the coilovers are fitted and the wheels are on I will fit this as the final (for now) change.:D
