My VX S II

[NZVX12]

Hi everyone this is my 2002 VX Commodore S II. I bought it October 2011 for NZD $13,995. It came with VZ mags and a non stock muffler.

Being me, I was glad to have a Holden but couldn't settle for this. Over the last five months I have carried out various aesthetic modifications, and have a whole list of things to do to reach a showcar level

Interior:
JVC head unit, Sony 600w amp, Sony 1300w sub

I was not happy with the job that Paul's Audio in Timaru had done as the head unit was unsecured and stuck out. So during a thunderstorm a few days ago, i went out to my car and cut the metal out the back so that it would fit. Still not secure but it doesn't get smacked when I change to 3rd

Exhaust:
Rage Big bore exhaust

I was livid when Magoo Muffler (same place as Pauls Audio) installed a big bore exhaust for me and neglected to tell me that there was a non stock exhaust system underneath. So I paid $719 for the exact same sound that it originally had, and it still sounds like ass (never going to this place again)

Exterior:
35% Window tint

Thanks to Tint-a-Car in Timaru, first company to do a proper job of what I asked

Wheels:
18 inch Advanti Gauntlet Black

Great job done by Vaughan Motors in Timaru


Things to do:

Near Future:
>Secure Radio, I possess some metal bits designed to secure the radio to the car
>Change Dash colour, I have purchased a red dash face and red LEDs to install
>Install Cannon exhaust, I know this is usually taboo on a Holden but this is the cheapest way to stop it from sounding like V6 ass

Within the year:
>Install Raptor Supercharger, I am now saving to install this by the end of the year

Next year:
>Candy Apple Red paint job
>VY front bumper
>GTO side skirts and rear bumper
>Monaro Flutes or XR8 bonnet bulge

After the rest:
>Black Leather Seats with red stitching, Red leather in certain spots but haven't decided yet
>Red Dash Fascia
>Red leather on Gear knob
>Headers, Intercooler etc.
>Big brakes, lowered suspension

By the looks of that picture of your engine bay it might be a good idea to check your power steering fluid.

I was inspired for this by a VX SS owned by Sterling Ross which has a VY front, but his also has vy lights, bonnets, and fenders

This was right before a service and has been done haha

The cannon is only temporary until the supercharger is done, I would hate the idea of leaving that on my finished car
