VS calais

[summerZ]

i think he means the side moulds.. by y not both? they would both set ur car off even better

 

[Smallies]

Personally, I'd lose the black bumper moulds. I think it'd clean it up a bit better.

Agreed.

pwoah so clean so fresh

Agreed.


Nice car man, take care of it, please don't ruin its cleanliness. :thumbsup:

Cool. I like the chrome, but i've spent heaps on looks and handling i think it needs some grunt now. Might put the chrome on the back burner. You guys reckon a silver SS kit would work, or should i keep it calais looking?

Soon on the ajenda is spacing those back wheels out again. See how they're set in a bit? It's running a VLT diff and those 235's only just fit, but it would handle better with a wider wheel spacing.

Definately needs the calais chrome or even s2 calais body coloured strips in the bumpers and on the doors.

Well this 'Calais' is a little different. I like it alot champ.

That silver looks alot lighter than the Shadow grey that Holden used on its two tone models.

Have you driven a super6, there pretty extreme bits of gear, when i was planning my conversion i thought about a V8 but the super6 was much easier to do and better performance with only bolt on modifications.

Drive a super6 before you seal the deal

Looks good mate. I reckon go for a cruise in a super6 and make ya mind up from there,

manual calais!! ive never seen one
bloody nice
definately go the ss kit looks soo good on vs calais
was wondering did u find there was a lot of gain from the higher diff gears?

 

[maldotcom2]

Thanks guys, i've never driven a super6 or a V8, and i dont know anyone who owns either so it's a little difficult. I've still got over 18 months on P's so i'll just go the compression/cam for the time being, it'll only cost me a few hundred all up. Then i guess i'd be up for new heads and cam if i went for a supercharger.

That's because technically it's an esteem, and i converted it to manual :whistling

Difference was massive when i swapped the original diff for an LSD 3.7, especially pulling out of corners.
