So i ended up coming across this Berlina he wanted $1500..but got him down to $1200 with no-rego..
I have never did anything with a s/c enigne before so tips are welcome...

The Car was owned by some guy before he went to jail haha so he molested it pretty bad so i have to UN-MOLEST it..

Diff - Apparently VL Turbo Diff...LSD tho spins 20's easy enough

Suspension - SSL ( Springs only cause some dick lowered it )

Interior - Black VY Seats (Electric):yeah:

Future Mods:

A2A Intercooler
Around 15psi pulley

VS Stato l67
Is it a full L67 conversion or just the top end? (blower, heads, manifold etc.) Or maybe are there a few rare factory L67 berlinas out there but either way sounds like a good buy

Bit of an update:

Got the conversion home today and realised it is infact a T5 for an ecotec not a getrag
so pretty stoked will keep the process updated...
