hey dA0k, nice pic of the VL's there, I've seen some of them drivin around they are nice! Especially the VL 87 WA one, exactly what I wanted to do except black instead of white (instead I'm sellin my Calais next year).. I drive the red over silver Calais, its alright, just an N/A... will do until I get my new car lol.. but I don't think I've seen reflex's VL around...

cheers man! haha yeah it's been hiding alright - in my driveway in peices....
Been in the build for roughly a year or so now so hasnt seen much time on the road yet, pretty much stripped it back to a stock car and have been building it up to try run a 10, be happy just to have it running again tho!
Just waiting on the new turbo setup from duz360 in the next few weeks then it should be ready to go. will have to come up with some of the bunbury/busselton guys for a perth cruise once its finally finished...

If that is the white one with the 19s its ok, full of rust but, its showing everywhere, needs to be stripped back and treated imo.

For the 100 people that have PM'd me about my car being for sale, im in no rush, the car is going over the pits next week with small wheels and a couple of globes put in, got some pursuities.
It will be for sale after that with the brand new motor.
I bought it for 10k from a mate, since then put the wheels on it, new motor, fixed misc stuff, replaced the rear end with the obsolete and rare new rear garnish etc.
So yeah it owes well over 20k
If anyone wants to test drive it (serious buyers only) not people that will buy it if they sell their car etc.... let me know

Yeah more pics guys! Couple more of mine where its been living for a while:
One of Boostncalais' new engine while it was in the build, mint as!
Xibit0r, robbos calais is sex on wheels these days I used to own it a few years back before I sold it to him and its come a loooong way since then, easily worth the money in my opinion. I know for a fact everything was done properly, helped him with some of it myself. If I hadnt of built a new calais Id buy it back off him myself... go check it out and see what you can fault before you go ragging on the price!
Theres not very many mint calais turbo's getting around perth for sale from what ive seen.
