    THink I remember reading a thread with that VK in it...........that was a nice car for a 15? year old lol.

    And I've seen the VQ somewhere before recognised it in the second pic. Myspace or something I think lol. I remember thinkin the L plates were a nice touch haha. :thumbsup:

    Thanx boys, yea the vk was alryt i guess i talked it up a bit tho lol..

    Yea ducker they fit on no worries man as long as u get the right offset, the 1st 20s i got where the zenetti heirs and they didnt fit to well, had to get adaptors for the back and spacers for the front but the rest where sweet.

    I found a place that change the top hat bit on the front strut so they fit, but got told that the VQ has a narrow diff and that guy said your lucky if you can get 18's under them,

    Thanks for the correct info

    Hi there Zane..

    I remember you from the SP4 and Ausrevs days, where I guess.. you had a little trouble staying unbanned lol..

    Personal Opinion, not a big fan of the rims, looking a little like dinner plates.. Silver Stockies FTW!

    Dude... Just watched the Utube vid, you needa tease the throttle a lot more, mad skid, but just gotta tease the throttle a lot more so it's not constantly bouncing on the limiter..

    From the last time I remember, there's nothing performance wise to the VQ, it's got the VT engine covers, I do hear a Gilmer kit in some of his other Youtube vids and I remember that from ages back...
