My Impulse Blue VZ SV6

After being a member for sometime and using the forum as a wealth of knowledge I thought is was about time I started a thread for my car. I picked the car up approx 18months ago with about 60,000ks in good condition and have slowly been adding bits and pieces to it.

Model: 2004 VZ sv6
Colour: Impulse Blue
Transmisson:5spd Auto

Current Mods: Slotted RDA Rotors front and rear with Standard RDA pads on rear and Performance Pads on front
2 hole mod, intake pipe from 170 Alloytec and K&N filter
2.25 Twin exhaust
Personalise plates: ZAA299
Interior map lights replaced with LEDs

Future Mods: Wheels(if I ever pick some I like), lowered shocks and springs, stereo, tint.

Just a couple of pics from when i first got the carand one of my engine covers which I've just painted(dont mind the scuff marks haven't cleaned them up yet) will update with some current photos when i get a chance.




and a couple more photos of the engine covers, cleaned up nicley.


any comments or suggestion, especially on wheels welcome.

whats the intake pipe from a 170 alloytec?

Thanks for the positive feedback guys.

Slipper the intake pipe from a 170 alloytec doesn't have the resonator section like the pipe from the 190, allowing air to go straight into the manifold giving better throttle response and a bit more induction noise. IMO for $20 and 10 minutes to fit its worthwhile .

impulsive I've got a 2.25" exhaust of a VZ SS on it now, fairly happy with that. Thinking about removing or replacing the rear muffler to make some more noise, don't want it too loud so not really sure at the moment.

hopfully sorting out some new wheels soon as I need a couple of new tyres and I found out that one of the rear rims is buckled.

Any opinions on Advanti Chopper's in 19s?
