G'day everyone! I've been lurking on this site since I bought my GT a couple weeks ago and thought I'd better say hello.

First I would like to say this site is very, very BAD..I promised myself that I wouldn't spend money on this car but after being on here my very weak arm has been twisted
So here is a bit of info:

Name: Paul
Ride: MY05 GT manual
Location: W.A, southern suburbs
Mod: AUX audio cable (so far)
Plans: sigh....so many plans
Year of birth:1982
Interest: Sports, Cars and Gaming
Previous Rides:
1st: '81 Gemini - Manual, worked 2Lt with twin Webber carbs. Good for around 120 hp
2nd: '99 Statesman - family car, couldn't put baby seats in a Gemi.
3rd: '02 XR6 - Manual, nice car but gutless without the turbo
4th: '02 VX SS - I went nuts on this car (post divorce ) Worked Gen 3 with manualised auto 3500 stall. Good for 430 hp and a 12sec quarter mile
5th: '05 Lib - The one I'm "not spending money on"

I know there are V8 haters amongst you but you have to appriciate the power my commo put out. I wasn't one of those fucktards that leaves snakies everywhere and draged everyone I pulled up to at the lights. It was my cruiser that simply sounded awesome at idle or on the gas. I missed driving manual though so I hunted around for what I could get and found this Lib that I now love to pieces even if it hasn't got anywhere near the power.

Anyway here are some pics

Welcome to the forums mate!

You're right that this place is a bad influence...you should've bought an N/A

Hi Paul, and welcome

Welcome mate, judging by your previous rides I'd say your GT won't be stock for long! Hopefully see you around on some cruises!

Cheers guys.

Yeah, it seems I just missed one this weekend...I'll get along to the family orientated cruises if there are any! I have to keep the kids in the back seat happy

Welcome paul! Always great to have more guys from Perth coming along. (and more so from southern burbs too)

Even buying an N/A doesn't help... Money will be blown regardless!

Welcome Paul

Good to see another ex-V8 Commodore owner amongst us….. last car was a NA VZ SS putting 346kw at the rears with nothing more than good old school tuning….. ported, polished, lumpy cam, forged internals etc.

Most member on here wouldn’t appreciated all that power on a RWD cause they wouldn’t know how to use it.

Thanks senator...346kw at the wheels would have been interesting! I wouldn't say most but definitely a few anyway.

Good luck Grrl! I would go old school. IMO none of the new V8s out are aesthetically pleasing but to each their own!

Sorry I missed you out…….. I’ve also been on the hunt for a few year now for an early model HDT VK/VL with original numbers……. Not easy finding something complete these days still as it left the factory.
