Hey all!
I've been lurking around these forums for ages now, reading and learning as much as i can about our fantastic cars and i figured its about time for me to show mine off.
Hell, some of you have probably helped create her in your own way from some of your posts!
So i picked her up 4 years ago for $3.2k, pretty damn good looking, all panels straight and all bits factory. It was a great canvas to start on!
Hope you all like her in one way or another.
Anyways, The Car:
Name: n/a
Model: 1996 VS
Colour: White
Engine Type: ecotec 6
Engine Mods: OTR CAI, 2.5" catback, rrz
Power: Couldn't pull ya eye-lids open...
Exhaust: 2.5" catback, exiting oval 3" tip
Gearbox: Rebuilt Auto with stg2 shift kit
Diff: Open
Brakes: DBA all round,
Suspension: Pedders sports all round
Wheels/Tyres: Holden VE SV6 wrapped in cheap but bloody grippy rubber! hubs and calipers painted black and blue
Bodykit: Stock
Exterior: white, deleted trolley strips, chrome window trim, clear indicators, calais tail lights,
Interior: vx calais s3 (?) seats all round, vs statesman dash, Momo race steering wheel, blue dash mod, new bright blue interor light, chrome window strips, chrome handles
Stereo: Pioneer deck, Clarion splits front, pioneer 6x9's in the rear running off an old amp, with 2x12" us audio subs in ported box running off USC 500w monoblock
Build Period : On and off since I bought her. Seriously not a clue how many hours over the years.
Cost: $3200 for the car + building it as sensably as possible
Future Mods: *deep breath* Green = done Orange = getting it ready Red = Not yet
VS Statesman dash - done!
VS Statesman door cards
VS Statesman console
ss kit - got most of a genuine kit waiting-damn front lip!
VS Calais s2 trolley strips
Chrome interior handles
Chrome exterior handles
extractors - pacies
Mace plenum spacer 12mm
Mace manifold insulator 24mm
& finally... A TUNE!
Sorry about the nighttime pics as attachments, i'll grab some better shots in the next few days and set up a photo hosting page somewhere.
Hope you like her!
