Manual Boost Controller, been running at around 9psi since i bought the car. Dyno run shows 190kw, tuned by TurboTune around 3months ago.
4.11 LSD with re-built calipers and new DBA slotted rotors - starting to whine abit.
Koni adjustable rear shocks

AC Delco 180LPH in-tank pump
wahlbro external pump
Car is rolling on 15x7 ceptors, Front tires are still almost brand spankas, rear are still in good nic
Im sure theres more, if you have a quick sus at thread below you can see most of the parts from one of the previous owners.
The car is not perfect,
The steering rack has a slight bit of play where it joins to the tie rod or something makes a slight knock everynow and again, only found this out when i was having the bushes done on friday.
Diff and Tailshaft starting to make a slight noise, havent really looked into it yet.
There is also a small hole right in the top of the fuel tank, previous owner said he tryed to mount his amp through it or something, there is a screw in there from him, seems to keep pretty much most of it in there.
Im sure il think of some other stuff to put up, if you have any questions or anything just let me know,
Old thread with the build up can be found here, not exactly the same now but gives you an idea.

Well put up a recent shot during the week, these are only about a month old, still looks the same.

01-11-10, 21:41 GMT+10#17 dont need one.. it is an RB with less capacity and VL's were optioned with turbo... as long as it has disk brakes on the rear it's legal.

01-11-10, 21:51 GMT+10#18 I don't think that's true. This motor never came optioned in the VL so it would need to be engineered.

02-11-10, 12:07 GMT+10#19 Its passed regency so its fine lol,
if I was still in the VL game i'd snap it up.

02-11-10, 16:11 GMT+10#20 The rb25 engine number is on the rego sticker, had to send a form into regency for the change over and they said its all fine and yeah it does have disk rear end.
Most likley keeping it now, orderd a new vlt ally rad and some other shiz so might aswell hold onto it. Unless i get a good offer.
Cheers
