Hey guys and girls,

My name is Jason, from Dover Heights, Sydney. Currently driving an AH 07.5 Astra Turbo (modified) with a vxr engine. Producing 240kw at the front wheels, but I have no traction and cant utilise all my power.

Thus, trading it in for an 09.5 Holden SS-V sedan. Purchasing it on Saturday, and delivery is in a week. Reason being is they are modifying it for me and doing it under warrantee aswell.

It's white, manual, with 20 inch gts wheels and lowered with HSV suspension, full 3" exhaust, mafless tune, cold air induction and blue xenons.

Dont want to be over the top, so making it a bit of a sleeper. Will change the brakes in the future to slotted and bigger callipers as I am thinking of either a twin turbo or a charger kit within 6-12 months. Will also remove rear wing.

Photos will go up when I've collected the car.

Would be great to go on a cruise sometime and meet some of you. Would like to learn more about these cars. Especially when moving from front wheel drive to rear.

ROFL Mortz.

Thanks guys and girls for the comments :)

Mortz was my inspiration, i have to admit. However, he's all sex spec. Im all sleeper.

Plus Mortz, mines gonna be manual, and unfortunately newer.


BlackCalaisVVE, you might see me driving around alot. Always in a rush, always late. lol. Im driving the red astra turbo around. Quite loud, very much a pocket rocket. Beep sometime and say hi.


RICECOOKER, rather oversteer than understeer. lol. Much safer...
