Yeah trust the rain to ruin a good night, quite a few VL's out tonite..Ryan your cars pretty schmicko mate, Alex cant waitt to see that monster cooler on your VL, and Brett whats the plan? You gettin a VL or what?
Think I might put the Aircon back in tomorrow,car fogged up heaps on the way home, had the stereo cranked and didnt realise the cops were behind me for ages,.......with their lights on!!!
So they went over my car and couldnt find anything...but I didnt have my license on me so now I have 48hrs to show it or get a fine, so I'm pretty farken lucky!!
Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
Lol, yeah im still looking for a VL-T. I want one in queensland but so hard to find one with about 220rwkw on 12. Im looking at one which is in melbourne on carsales.com.au atm. Nice yellow over silver.
Cruise was a bit buggered up by the rain but still fun. Should do it again when weather is better :P
yeah, VIC is great for finding good VL-T's with atleast 220rwkw...

I got my car in the paper tomorrow
Missus made me...

Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
Im 24...Been into realestate for a while now (scince I was 19) by mums an agent,..so I had no choice!!
Im going to miss my car, lucky ******* that buys it,. lol
errgh... as if go manual... more effort, less speed, more breakable parts and crappier launch capibillities...
It does look good tho.. however, its the wrong color for a BT1... close, but not right... also, i'd be a bit worried about the 288,000km.. And as if he's never boosted it past 10psi.. with all that gear, I'd have run it at 15 daily... Nice looking, but not worth the money in my oppinion...
$7,500 it has...
New paint
Suspension
17" VT Clubby wheels
Remote keyless entry
Alarm
New Gearbox
trans cooler
2" Pacemaker extractors to twin 2.5" to single 3"
650 HP series holley
sony Xplod 10 stacker, 6x9's and 6" splits with remote
2 x race seats ( only 1 in the car )
brakes done 12 months ago
120,000 k's with logbook
new radiator, new fan & shroud, all plumbing new
RWC
Fella said he would seperate the car for $12, 000. I preffer manuals wayyy more for the street. I dont want to drag-race it. Just want it to be a fun, powerful car.
Auto's are nowhere near as fun as driving a manual. Motor has been rebuilt, and im pretty sure it hasn't been past 10.. Hopefully anyway
mick: great price.. should sell... (If i hadnt just bought the VL-T 2 months ago, i'd buy it..)
Brett: If you want an auto to be "fun" get a stage 3 shift kit, full manual valve body and a 3000/3500 converter.. then you have to do all the shifts yourself, without the hassle of having a clutch. You can chirp 2nd and 3rd, you can launch from lights like a ****head, get to full boost faster than you can push out a ****... and you wont go through clutches like baby's go through nappies... also, with an auto you can get remote start fitted.. way cool.

I want a clutch. Im not a slack driver :P AND apart from the money factor of doing that, its just like driving a normal automatic, using 1, 2, 3 and drive?
I dunno, Im just a manual lover. If I ever got serious about racing though I MAY change my mind and spent a ****load on a good auto. With my 1st year apprentice wage at ergon atm, I cant see that happening until maybe another 2 years -- IF I wanted to swap to auto.
