So i have picked up my VF GTS last night which I have proceeded to name her Gerri.
Gerri is a manual and is currently completely stock standard. She is nitrate in colour and I got her with 800km on the clock so I got her at demo car prices .
The silly guys in the dealership were running her on standard unleaded so I have been trying to put a quick couple of tanks of bp ultimate through her so she gets a bit happier. Unfortunately for me that means I have been driving her heaps yesterday and today which is a real shame. I have a couple of photos I took the day I paid the deposit but haven't taken any others yet as I have been to busy driving her and I live in Tassie so it gets dark at like 4pm or something stupid like that at the moment.
I'm not sure if I should do any modifications to her or not. The suspension, diff and brakes are all majorly upgraded to begin with. The brakes actually look HUGE and it makes me laugh every time I see them. They don't really seem that much smaller than the alloys themselves. I hear there are some guys who have done pulley, exhaust and tune and have run in the 10's down the quarter but at this stage she still feels pretty bloody quick to me so I will see if the excitement wears off at all before I make any choices. By far the quickest car I have owned to date. Makes my e3 maloo I traded in seem positively slow.
Anyway enough rambling here are the pics I have. I promise to put up some more tomorrow.
