Welcome to the wonderful world of Holden. Good to hear you came to your senses and bought one very nice looking car. I hope you enjoy it.
There is a My Ride section on the forum.

thanks for the comments boys.. not really big plans..

first off would be an OTR induction.. i have a SS Inductions Growler kit at the moment which is not as bad i thought it would be but people are right.. u pretty much buy it for the sound.. so hopefully ill upgrade soon.. it did save me about 0.4L of fuel per 100kms.. lol
then most prob a Borla Cat back exhaust 2 1/4 inch, and obviously a edit at the same time.. ill be happy with 220 - 240kw atw
thats it for now.. just trying to keep it clean stock looking...sick of being defected esp with my old car..
im officially in love with holdens..
haha and thats the black angry bird (the bomb) .. its a personal joke between me and my girlfriend have.. i would explain.. but its more of those things where u had to be there scenarios. haha

im still new in the holden side of things.. so if i say some stupid or im incorrect just let me know.. lol..

Love the rims.
All it needs now in my opinion is a little bit more low.

Welcome! Glad to see another Naro SA Member. Very nice

If it hasn't been MAFless tuned yet, that's the first thing I recommend, even an eBay mailorder one works well these days. Made mine so much better to drive and the fuel economy is slightly better (except for when you drive it like it's Bathurst). Change the front indicator bulbs with "silver look" indicator ones. They look silvery when they aren't flashing but still flash amber. Something so simple, but just finishes off the complete silver headlight look. I like the spoiler, been wondering what my car (identical to yours, bonnet and all, except the spoiler) would look like.

Also, what have you done with your old rims? ;) Mine are getting really crappy and I'm looking for a nice set... If you've still got em and willing to sell how much would you want for them?
