Well I went to the Auctions yesterday and picked up a VSII Berlina with only 109,000k's on it. Looks great. Just got RWC before, now all I need is some number plates.
Check out some pics here (http://users.ncable.net.au/~lveal/Berlina)
So, what should I do to it? This will take time

Yeah the Mustang is nice....and loud!
I need a CD Player and an exhaust. What size exhaust do you people put on these things? I had a 2.5inch on the Skyline.

Go with a twin cat (goes from 2 into 1) 2.5 inch system and some pacemaker extractors if you can afford it (about $1000 give or take). Or just go with the tried and true cat back 2.5 inch with a single lukey race muffler. Midas up here do the mandrel bent system with a lukey muffler for $230. So expect a little more in Melbourne. I only say a Lukey muffler because Ive heard it before and think it sounds good on a V6, Im sure theres other mufflers out there like redback etc.

hey dude, are you replying in the right thread? lol
anyway, could you be more specific about your exhaust, is it mandrel bent? what kinda lukey muffler is it? normal or ultra flo type? have you got a resonator on it? is it a straight through design with one muffler only?
thanks, feel free to add more to it
