Heres my car ... my second holden. first one was a V8 that was fully modified by Bathurst... this one I am doing myself (and yes Im a chick!!)
So far
Lowered front on HSV struts, springs shocks etc. (fe2)
Smaller link kits
aftermarket sway bar
2 x 15" subs in the boot and new 6x9s in the rear. FUSION
Sports exhaust fitted.
K & N air filter (man that made a difference)
VS supercharged cold air intake fitted
New monroe shocks
9mm eagle leads and plugs


Got a bored out throttle body coming. Will get that fitted next week!!

Was told to go a big bore 3 inch... saw my muffler man he said thats too much out put for a v6. he said to go extractors/headers and it will increast boost and fuel economy. Then I was told that headers/extractors only give about a 2kw increase in power, so that may be one of the last things I do

Lafemme is my licence plate (french for "The Woman")
Resprayed the front grill a silver.
now geting hasseled by local car clubs to join!!!
hot chicky in a HOLDEN yeah!!!

What else can I do to my car???

dont bother with a perfomance chip, when you get your exhaust and headers (not sure about vn v6s but vz cant be remapped) Get a piggyback memcal ecu that will just go ontop of your existing ecu(computer) so you can switch from perfomance to stock computer settings- make the most out of your full new exhaust.

Blow everything else, join a car club, work hard - get rich and do what ever you feel like. Dyno test it and see if it's worth keeping.


If anybody says don't be a wanker, ignore them, wankers rule the world. [If your a chick- So what! Party hard, live smart and be a wanker]
Don't do drugs, drugs burn brain cells and you won't develop an opinion.
With out an opinion, you won't become self opinionated and nobody will think your a wanker. Join a car club, work hard, get rich, bla bla "Rule the world."

That's just my opinion.
