i hope the supa low shocks and springs i just brought wont make it look to high
the calais wags have always been a favourite of mine and to be honest i get alot of raised eyebrows when they saw the wag b4 it got the paint job so when its all together god knows what glares im gunna get

Yes it was it took me a while to save up some cash but luckily it was still forsale when i had the cash. so i snapped it up and bought it home and put it in the garage with a fan heater lol
Hi guys Ive got a VL with a stock RB30e 200ks in it and im buying A T3/T4 turbo off another member in here.. Also getting http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/List...x?id=265431262 (http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=265431262)
This is going to be the start of my RB project still got to get intercooler,wastegate,2 1/2 inch exhaust, fuel pump, have changed all oils in car and replaced front discs with DBA and ferodo metal kings pads locks up my 235/45/17 real good. Im not after huge power or 3gear burnouts just a bit of boost 0.4bar/4-6psi.running on 98 prem so how long do you think it will last? Im planning on doing all of it by myself in the garage even getting my own timing light I have VR Clubsport that i take good care of but i want to keep it standard. Easier for insurance.. I got a VL for a daily and its Great but the idea of having a turbo vl would be sweet.... Any advice suggestion would be great.. Thanks
