Hi All, thought id show my VZ SS that I brought new in 2005.
Model: VZ SS
Colour: Impulse Blue
Engine Type: LS1
Engine Mods: HPF Head & Cam 390kw package, Higgins Ported Heads, Comp 236/242 cam .612lift. Sounds Insane!!
Power: 308rwkw
Exhaust: Pacemaker 1 3/4" extractor, highflow cats, 2.5 Inch Cat Back.
Gearbox: 6 speed manual, Textralia Z-Grip, Short Shifter
Diff: LSD 3.9 gears
Brakes: Standard
Suspension: Pedders Front Spring, Kings SSL rears
Wheels/Tyres: VZ SS 18s & VE GTS 20s to be fitted next week.
Interior: SS Interior, Autometer gauges.
The car has only covered just over 60ks & so far extremly happy. Future plans are a bit up in the air at the moment can't decide wheather to go Single Turbo or 150hp shot of NOS. The car has ran a best so far of 12.0 @ 120mph with spin, hoping to dip into the 11s before any more mods.
Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Nice car, really clean.
150 shot will see you into the 10s - 120mph is moving..
Put some stock FE2 springs and shocks into the rear and front and some nice MT's and that thing will launch. I bet you start looking at diff upgrades soon.

Thanks for the comments guys. Will get some picks up soon for the car with the VE GTS 20s.
Duke57TT - definatly going to setup the suspension for the next track visit. Going for a 10 when I decide how to go with the future mods, I've always been a fan of N/A but a little boost is also a good thing.

New photos with 20" VE GTS rims. Let me know what you think.
Decided to go with NOS setup should be fitted in the next couple of weeks should be good for 380rwkw and a 10sec pass. Hanging to see how it goes.
