Hey guys im new to the forum and i thought u might like to see what i get around in. The VL is a 5 speed manual, n/a "what a pity" and has a few mods but i haven't really tried to mod it yet. Its running on VX SS rims that i bought the other week and apart from that it has a HD Clutch and towing suspension which does drop it a little lower from standard. My dad has had it since new so im still in the process of taking it over.
tell me what u think of her and how the rims look on it.
cheers

paoh thats sooo clean!
nice VL u got there.
one recomendation, paint the rear garnish in gloss black, that'll top off the look!
the rims do look good!
wot the future plans for the car?
and damn, a one owner VL.... i bet there arent many of those going around. good luck with the "taking over" business!

cheers bewsh ill take that that on board about the garnish
no1 future mod is installing a decent stereo but i need some help with brand and set up! im thinking deck with 6's front and rear but don't know much about the quality of the brands " basically i don't wont the cheap s*** which is rubbish" so if anyone can recommed there set up i would appreciate it. i do know i only got a budget of about $500
i should be getting tinting in the next couple of weeks which should improve the looks a bit
i do need to save up for some new extractors, high flow cat, lowered springs and part from that it just needs a uni pod filter and i should be set.

I might do one lap, but thats it

09-03-07, 18:03 GMT+10#13 a conversion would be nice but the joke of it is it would roughly cost the same amount as the car is worth atm. im keeping the vl stock if i get a turbo it will probably be on a skyline which here's hoping will be my next car
