my thought's over the next 2 years is to keep my current vn v6 5sp,
take the engine, gearbox, diff out, send it off to get stripped down, machined, hardened parts in and get a twin turbo setup happening, obviously i'd be looking at $15000 or so to get something like that and would obviously take a while to get done,
or to ditch the current car, get a vn ss and put a charger on it or turbo setup.
opinions are sought for ideas!!

if i was getting the ss i would be stripping it down anyway and getting it rebuilt with hardened stuff anyway so that it is really crisp, and yeah a nice charger would be great. in another year i'll be working full time so my car won't get used much at all so waiting for work to be done will be no problem, as money should be no worries

Probably one of my favourite Holden combos - I love a supercharged VN V8 SS, so good to look at. Expecially if its in Atlas grey, with the red highlights.

This forum needs a drooling smiley :D

awesome, sounds like i'll probably be heading down the ss charged line!! my mate currently has an atlas grey ss that he is stripping down and putting on a charger, mine will probably get done sooner though lol
