Well I've had the vk for a while and thought Id post it up.

Model: 1985 Vk Sl

Colour: Green? PEAKN6 might be able to tell me the colour code :p

Engine Type: carby 202

Transmission: Auto (I like to think its a manual :p)

Engine Mods: Vh cold air intake

Power: Not enough

Exhaust: Stock

Wheels/Tyres: Silver ceptors (sprayed silver shhhh)

Interior: Cream interior is top condition no marks/scratches.

Stereo: Sony CDX-F5500 head unit, Cadence - ZX6KIT Splits in the front, Pioneer 6x9s in the rear. Also 12" mtx sub in the boot.

Mods: Custom parcel shelf, Alarm, was lowered but back to stock now.

Future Mods: Will eventually chuck a 308 into it when I get another car but for now its just a runabout.

I picked it up for $1000 last June but have had to spend a bit to keep it going. Since then I've replaced: tyres , radiator, back muffler, air con + regased twice, front struts, dizzy, front headlights and got the engine tuned.

Been a longggg time since I've updated this. All I've really done is fix up the stereo and put in some dark vk calais lights. I had to cut the doors and door trims to fit in the front splits in (which I really didn't want do :( ) and I've put a sub in the boot. I really want to tidy up the boot and make a sub box which sits right up behind the seat but I just haven't had the time or money.

Anyway im trying to keep my car fairly stock so when I re sell her she wont be another molested vk :p Its so hard not to change anything though!!

Now here are some photos from last weekend when I put a mates venetian in :yeah: Not sure how I feel about the venetian..
Excuse the ****ty phone pics.. I went out with the digital cam but didn't realize the batteries were dead

Can't remember the colour code, but it's called 'Everglade Green' that's what PEAKN6 is anywas :p

That looks pretty much identical to PEAKN6, except the wheels and now PEAKN6 has VH bumpers :thumbsup:

Nice..
I used to have the same in manual when I was in school, it was a canary yellow. Always loved the VK but wussed out to get a newer car to avoid the troubles an older commo usually gives ya.
Got plans to mod it or just want to keep it stock?
