[U4Real]

[Wonky]

Looks awesome :goodjob: and no doubt goes well too!! :burnout:

[Evman]

I love the carbon fibre bits and pieces! It all looks a bit bland standard IMO. Forum member jai has done something similar. Looks brilliant :goodjob:

[ls2 crew]

hows your paint, I work in the same street and mine get covered in over spray.

[BECAUZ]

Wow, that supercharger looks AWESOME! :goodjob:

Post a vid of how it sounds in the cabin :D I'd love to hear it.

[BEARWOOD]

I'm not really a fan of 2 tone paint jobs but i don't mind this, i'd probably get the gold bow tie painted black but.

It gets parked in the shed with the door down most of the time.. I've had to clay bar it once or twice, but most of the time it's covered up so so far so good :)

Behind an auto it's pretty snappy.. I reckon it's about right, but a 3.45 would be a perfect compromise (cruising at 100 the 3.45 would drop the revs just enough I reckon)

Thanks for the PM's guys, sadly I don't have enough posts to reply to you, but to answer a few questions for those who have asked:

Carbon Fibre Stuff: All Car Interiors (Stewart) (07) 3857 1141

Complete S/C setup was about 15K, inc tune, etc.. fully compliant in QLD.

The car gets about 7.5 L /100 on the highway at 100, and averages about 12.5 to 13 overall.. it's somehow the most powerful street car I've owned, and the most efficient. I image I could kill that figure if I burried the right foot a little more though.

:goodjob: great set up , even better fuel economy!! , how does the auto go with that much power? does it feel strong?

Auto has been great, PT set it up with realy stiff shifts, so it's brutal in sport mode (but i don't mind the snappy shifts), but feels solid and have had no issues with it. The plan always was to go and get a full upgrade option from Sure Shift, however it just hasn't needed it.

Finally Found it with no replys. Not sure why as this is absolute sex on wheel IMO. Got my VZ F.S ATM hope it sells before this does. Sorry but bought a new "Ranger" last week and need to sell the VZ before I buy another toy. Would love to be able to say SOLD

Cheers Chris

cheers.. I've seen it used too much in some cases, but I've tried to use it just enough to break up all of the black and grey plastic in the VE's. It scratches really easily if you aren't careful with it though.
