I was quite reluctant to post my car up but I was going to post it one day so here goes... It was a: VL calais 86, white/silver, rb30e auto, red interior, extractors with stock zorst, lowered a touch and pretty much stock as they came + a wanker tacho... Whats changed: mf5 manual now (huge difference), extracors to hi-flow cat to 2.5" red back system (love the new sound), lower springs yet to go in, 28 spline LSD yet to go in (need axles too), new head with gts2 cam and tuned chip to match still yet to go in and now saving up for respray and undecided on what colour (suggestions would be great guys)... When i bought the car... then this happened ... this was my twins car... crash was on ANZAC day 08, my brothers car was on the road for 6 days and both no insurance (being anzac day we couldnt get insurance till Monday) A mate of mine straightened the front for me (not for free btw) and turned out well, now droppin the gear back in... After many hours of cleaning everything up, still not satisfied though!!! new clutch Ill get more progress pics tomorrow after work. Its on the road to something special! I hope anyway... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
