There's nothing at all wrong with those rims!

Aren't they HDT?

Although..

Raise the rear end or lower the front.

383 HSV GTO coupe & vk ls1 turbo
Thats good news great to hear its happening they didnt give any idea on price at all did they??

nar man never got a price but i would say they would be around the same as the vl-vs ls1 one around 800-900. they will be 1 3/4" primaries, 2" secondaries and 2 1/2" Outlet. I was hoping for 1 7/8 primarys and 3 1/2 outlets. I wont be using extractors anyways but was just looking into it just in case i cant get my turbo setup regod might.

One hell of a ride I bet. I was thinking of the ls1 option for my vk and I think I'll take it!

85mm polished throttle body
allfast 4200rpm converter
