I had to get my mother to start the thread off cuase im not the best with computers. it started off with a blue calais but it had front end damage i bought another one. ive spent heaps on it so far mods new rockercover gasket new power steering pump new intercooler new extreame heavy duty clutch dual stage boost controller new 19 apec chrome wheels new aluminium radiator new 3 " exhaust new 3" pacemaker dump pipe thats all that i can think off write now i bought all this stuff after i got my new red one but since then i have spent alot more on it getting all the parts put in. ---------- Post added 05-06-11 at 18:09 ---------- when i got my red one i had somwon working on it all but it didnt work out so i took it to shaw performance. Im friends with the owner nick shaw since it been their it has been nothing but a money pit i got around ten grand worth of recipts for everything i have spent so far and it is still going. the car got completly rewired when the engine went in. Then i bought all new speakers and amps i also bought a touch screen flip out dvd player. When that was done i wasnt happy still so the bloke who put my audio in told me about a painter called mitch kelly he a good bloke he painted my car all 2pac black.
