I assume it's because they're achievable mods. That, and the fact that if he came on here and said I want to build a forged motor with a T04Z and a Microtech and run 10s everyone would laugh at him. P plate laws prevent any motor mods so he's playing with the cards he's been dealt

01-07-08, 19:54 GMT+10#14 sell me your garnish and i will send you a set of vl hsv hdt style lights, all blacjked out (legal as they are a hdt / hsv light) look to have been freshly resprayed and a centre garnish to go with. all gm stamped.
if its an sl get a sunnies holder and a highrise console. also start thinking about handling vt brake upgrade new rubbers springs shocks and a panhard rod. dont forget fat tyres! (215s are the best bet for the rear as these wont scrape)
oh and check out the tech threads on installing later model seats that will hug you ion more eg vs vr ss seats which is what i have.

There's nothing wrong with naturally aspirated VLs cruising alongside VL turbos. It's not about competing with anyone... I enjoy seeing any nice looking VL on the road, NA or Turbo, and I think most other VLT drivers feel the same way, so you shouldn't be concerned about that.
By the way, your VL looks nice. Whatever you do to it, don't change the colour. Is it auto or manual? If it's auto, I'd convert it to manual.
