Hello, I’m Nick Bouras and this is my VLCT
-When I got it-
It was a converted N/A lowered on intonationals, here are some pics
It was pretty much stock turbo specs with a side mount AVO cooler,
I got the car half re sprayed to get rid of all the faded bits and then got a sound system!
After abit I decided on changing the cooler and I bought and installed a GKtech intercooler kit
I got a stage 3 Keas Shift kit and also painted up some bits of the engine bay to make it look nice, got some chrome door handles, some 20s, and some gauges on the bonnet and it was going alright..
I started to change my mind about the 20s.. the scraping n **** was getting annoy..
I decided to sell them and then attack the motor.. It is currently rolling on ceptas but will probly upgrade after I get some more power!
I bought a few parts and have started on it atm,
Whats getting installed:
T66 turbo set up,
custom high mount manifold,
Turbosmart external gate,
3.5 inch dump with 3 inch zorst.,
GKtech cooler with custom pipes
ETM plenum
Wade 1522C/1147C custom grind cam and Performance springs
GTR injectors
Wolf 3d ecu
Bosch 040 Fuel pump
And few more things I missed lol..
Im doing all the work and ill probly get JPC to tune it!
Soon to be getting a 3 speed full manual gearbox with a transbrake and a shortened 9inch with 3.9s when I save some cash, then I will rebuild a tuff bottom end, boost it up do few more things, and try run a number.
I will keep you all posted, and let you know when its back on the road
Thnx
Nick Bouras!

If you intend to keep those rims, you need to lower the rear.
Regardless, very nice car... Love morning blue vls
