Looks neat, although the black on red is an acquired taste.

I was thinking the same thing.

Very nice though, really like the grille and rims. Looks good on the dark red/maroon.

Haha worked my ass of for them!

That and there is no engine restriction laws in WA :)

Bug eye was first car so I'd been saving for that for a while, fresh out of high school I picked that one up!

After I sold that bought the SS brand new...

Racked up too many kms and was not liking my depreciation in value of my poor car (That and I don't really rate Holden)

Decided I'd sell that, have a crummy VY como for my work car and then the LIB for my weekends :)

So I have two cars at the moment but I don't deem the VY a car as it is most certainly a bucket.. but it does the job!

It's a nice thought, but I think I better start throwing some money at the engine bay!

Been trying to find a nice after market bonnet scoop, but they are pretty hard to come by!

loving it so far mate :), im so glad you started with a good base, (starting with a GT). love the red and black you have going on, very different and looks really aggressive :D, let me know if you need any whiteline gear or help with the x force exhaust and varex mufflers.

without going out of your way too much, but is it possible to get a quote (shipped to WA) for a full xforce TBE system.

Quad tip mufflers Varex and just regular xforce quads... (will prob go the cheaper option)
