UPDATE: Window tint has been redone, it is now 20%. But the main update is the stereo system. She now has an Alpine Headunit, Alpine Type-R Speakers all round (Splits in front), 2x Alpine PDX M12 Mono Amps, Alpine PDX F6 4 Channel Amp, and a custom boot install. Please see photos...

Here are more photos, just one of the engine with the new headers and engine covers back on, and one of the new Blaupunkt Headunit.

Thanks mate :) Engine covers are definitely already back on, only took them off so I could clean them and the engine properly. I like how it looks better with the engine covers on. Will take more photos of how it looks soon!

UPDATE: Please check the first post on this thread as I have updated with work that has been done. Haven't posted on this thread for a while and you were probably thinking that this thread wasn't going anywhere. Well I have been slowly getting things done and this is where she's at now :)...

By the way, I have now replaced the electric antenna with a brand new one, and have replaced a couple of other minor things that were damaged. All genuine parts used of course :)

Sorry for the late reply guys, just having some complications in my personal life and haven't been on here. Thanks mate, over the weekend I went over the whole car with a clay bar and the paint feels so much more smoother now. I then went over it with polish, and I am glad I did. It rained...

Yeah I will clean up the engine myself when I get a chance. Was thinking of getting an OTR and mafless tune. Haven't had much to do with V8's so definitely keen on learning what I can do to give it more life

Hey guys, I have a 2005 VZ Calais V8 and the low fuel warning has not come on since I have owned the car (about 3-4 weeks) the gauge seems to be working fine and even the "fuel used" said 60 litres and it took 60 litres when I filled it up. It said 47kms to empty but no matter how low it goes...

You must be short if you think the seat is too low, it has electric seats with height adjustment. I am short but was able to adjust it to the perfect height

Seriously, has anyone ever gone to see one of these cars or taken one for a drive? I never really thought much about these cars, but recently I hired a car from Thrifty, and they ended up giving me a free upgrade to a brand new 2016 Holden Malibu CD Sedan. I didn't really know what to...

Has anyone else tried the "New and Improved" Arnotts Shapes? I have now tried the BBQ (wasn't too bad), Cheese and Bacon (wasn't a fan), and Pizza (was ok). But I much prefer the original flavours, and think that have made a huge mistake. I believe they should at the very least keep the...

I get what you are saying. I am happy with the power my VE SSV has, and the only reason I am thinking of selling it, is so I can pay out the loan, and only have one car loan instead of two. But if I end up selling it, I wan't something with the same, if not more power, at an affordable price...

Thinking about buying an exhaust system for the VE SSV to make it sound much better, and then I will definitely want to keep it even more haha

Hey guys, So basically, I am trying to decide if I would be as happy (if not more happy) if I had the BF MKII XR6 Turbo over my VE SSV Wagon (6.0L Manual). I financed my VE SSV last year, and then a couple of months later I financed a 2013 Toyota Hiace Van for work (Contractor for Australia...
