    G’day Guys

    Thought I’d start a built thread on the SS, well just a tidy up to my liking seeing it’s my daily driver.

    This is what she looked like when I first go her home after a wash & a couple of progress pics along the way.

    Hi HDNO5L

    I’m in the process of just tidying it up & making it my own style. I’ve just put in Pedders springs in the front, Nolathane bushes in sway bars, KMac camber kit in rear and she’s getting a new Exedy clutch next week.

    The engine bay is looking a bit nicer more work to do though.

    Yea beautiful mate, I think the 2nd gen SS’s are future classics, and you cant go wrong in red.  If you get the chance mate love you to post up larger pics using photobucket.  I did a post on how to do it if it helps.

    Nice clean looking car mate  :good: .

     

    I don’t mean to nit pick, but you’ll want to grab an allen key and put the fuel rail covers on the right way. You’ll see what I mean when you pull them off and turn them around.

    No worries, we just yesterday added a FAQ tab up on the top right and in it the link to a post I did on using Photobucket.  Its free and pretty easy once you get the hang of it.

    Must agree the Brock VP was/is a great looking car. It gets out and about a bit these days. This was at Geelong Revival last year. Sounded awesome!

    Update on the RedDevil

    I installed new lower control arms, ball joints and nolethane bushes that’s made the ride nice and solid & smooth. V8EFI reprogrammed up a custom performance chip that woke the 5litre up from a lazy 165kw to around 200kw.

    I’ve polished the engine & rocker covers that’s made the bay look even better and for the out side I’ve painted my VZ R8 wheels white & makes the car stand out.
