Vx executive and vs s3 ute
G'day everyone well this Is my new money pit which I purchased a few weeks ago. She is a series 3 vs ute which has been running through the family for a while and now it's in my hands to finish off.

Mods:

Motor:
Motor has only done 4.6k km's since the rebuild
Twin throttle body motec manifold
Custom ground cam
Mafless tuned to 266.8 rwhp (run-in tune) by marks workshop

Internal:
Has a set of pioneer splits that need replacing
Some 8" tube sub behind the passenger seat.
Holden sheep skin seat covers(comfy as f**k)
And a tacky wooden steering wheel

External:
Right side of the car has been resprayed from where my brother crashed it.
Has 8pot ksport calipers with slotted and drilled rotors on the front
Standard brake setup in the rear.
Has adjustable koni rear shocks with some fancy springs in the rear, haven't checked out the front setup yet.
Has a 3" exhaust with pacemaker extractors.
18" grange wheels.

Damage:
Has a little dent on the tailgate and large dent on the bonnet from where it had rear ended somebody.
Burnout rash on the left rear guard.

Future mods:
Diff dumpers
New bonnet
Left side of the ute sprayed
Retune at 5000 k's
New stereo
Clutch fixed
Tray liner and maybe a custom hard lid

Impressive set up. Could do with a twin MACE CAI lol.

As for the tray liner I'd go the spray on ones. The other ones scratch the crap out of your paint and end up leading to rust.

Anyways verrrry nice buy, be interesting to see what you do with it :)

Cheers guys.
First thing im aiming for is a new tune because im averaging 20-24l to the 100 km's so im having to fill up every 3 days :/. compared to my old commy ( which is still for sale i may add ) that got 450+ k's to the tank

Marks workshop is a bit of a cruise still...

I reckon a morpheus purple respray while the panel beater does his thing on this dents then dropped on black VE GTS's could be a winner...

haha not a fan of morpheus purple. Plus being a UNI student with part time work it would take some serious saving to be able to afford a full respray. And i trust Marks work as my brother sends his senator there to get all its work. I was thinking about going to csc in wangara but i dunno. :/

99' Series 3 VS S-Pac Ute.
Love it mate, the colour combo and rims look really good together. Once those few dents are ironed out she'll be looking mickey mouse.
Get some interior shots up!
Also, needs to be dropped in the rear end a little more...
