Engine: rb30 n/a

Exhaust: pacemaker extractors, 2.5 catback with one muffler

Suspension: sssl in the front sssl with 1 coil cut in the back

Wheels: factory calais wheels, two have been sent away to get polished and to see if I like them or not.

Modifications: Manual conversion, exhaust, suspension

Stereo Audio / Visual: just a cheapy stereo

Estimated Power: factory i guess haha.

Just seeing what you's think about the new addition,

all factory bar the stated modifications.

Needs some new tail lights, front bar centre, left rear filler panel and chrome strip. Has a few bumps and dents, nothing major and the usual paint fade on the bonnet.

Lose my licence in a month so I'll have 6 months then possibly another 3 months to work on it, so tell me what you's think and what I should do to it smile.gif

    No 18's or 19's. Get those Calais wheels polished up and leave them on. Car still needs a little bit of cleaning up.
    Other than that, looks fairly straight.

    If I got rims, I'd get the 19" ve gts rims. if not i'll keep the calais rims, raise it a little bit.

    but yes bit of a tidy up is in need.smile.gif
