VX Calais

[beaker]

Hi.
I've just recently been checking out this 'my ride' section.... damn you guys and girls are building some hot cars.
i've been a member for a little while, and not really posted anything, so figured i'd add some pics of my V8 to the collection.

it's got a couple of mods,

Adjustable air suspension system with concealed dash controls.
Pioneer stereo CD/MP3 receiver, twin amps, 12in Sub, pro series front splits and rear 6x9's
Headers and full exhaust system. (which sounds so good, i rarely use the stereo now)
plus a tidy up of the boot to mount and hide stuff.
and recently a set of ROH 18's

it's an ongoing project, with a long to-do list.
cold air intake, cam and retune are next.

sweeeeett... Love the VX Calais, and that one is just... WOW!

I would get rid of the spoiler personally, I think they look much nicer without them, but each to their own. VERY nice car dude :thumbsup:

hmmm...bagged VX Calais

normally i would say keep tha spoiler...but with bags, i say take it off (will make it look even lower in tha back!)...i really like where you put tha switches too, very stylish! tank setup in tha boot is not too bad either...good work!

Cheers,
Infin8

Cheers everyone, it's always good to get positive feedback.

no one likes the spoiler.. haha. it does look high in that pic, but from a more normal standing view it looks fine.
i quite like it, so will likely keep it.... tho.... i might just pull it off and have a look...

am looking into a hbd kit, to get it looking lower still, but keep the factory look.

The bags are sweet! how much did that cost u??

Love that S jesterarts, my brother in law got one just like it, same colour even, they're hot.
the air bag kit was pretty expensive, over 4k by the time you add in exchange rates shipping, and the local nz importers mark up.
but it came as a DIY. so i got to fit it myself, which i enjoyed.
and was surprised how well it handles, its so smooth on the open road.

i really like where you put tha switches too, very stylish!

thanks infin8. i've trialed a few different set ups before that one, i really wanted it to be hidden from view, and am pretty happy with it now.
