Tiger Mica VX, another manual v6 with a clubby kit. Blue LED dash :)

Name: Steve
Model: 2001 VX Exec
Colour: Tiger Mica
Body Kit: VX Clubsport, VX SS spoiler, HSV/Calais headlights, not sure what type, got them cheap.
Engine Type: Ecotec 3.8lt
Engine Mods: CAI....
Power: Factory -8 years + CAI and exhaust.
Exhaust: Pacemaker headers, hi flow cat, 2.5" cat back
Gearbox: Gretag 5 speed manual
Diff: Stock
Brakes: Stock
Suspension: SSL, Pedders Sport Rider Shocks
Wheels: 19" CSA Vanquish

Build Period: Well....I've had it for close on three years.
Cost: $10k for the car + ???

Future Mods: Finish interior, retrim front seats (maybe new foams?), hi ratio roller rockers, and boot install, then just keep her clean and happy.

Thought I'd sign up on the JC forums after a few years of lurking, and I'm also a bit over the crap over on SC...

So yes, here is my car. Nothing special, but she keeps me happy. Currently trying to fix a broken power window, and painting all the interior plastics black, then trying to track down some black roof lining.

Thanks guys. She does ok, gets plenty of looks, and somehow doesn't get in too much trouble with the boys in blue.

Latest mods..... 4 new tyres? haha. I'll have a full LED dash conversion done by the end of the week, so that should be good. Also should really get my butt into gear and finish the interior....

I want to upgrade the suspension, as I'm sick of paying for chiropractors to fix my back due to the car. I've considered replacing the shocks with Monroe GT sports, but also thinking some Pedders XA coilovers. I know it's 4x the cost for all 4 corners, just don't really know if it is worth the extra money?
