when it was lowerd

-4.0l 6cyl
-2.5inch catback exhaust with chrome tips
-15" alloys :good:

- SSL Kingsprings all round
-leather interior
-tint
-change all the interior lights to blue l.e.d's
-alpine h/u, sony splits, pioneer 6" 3 ways in rear, 2x 12" pioneer subs, o/a mono amp and a sony 4ch amp :thumbsup:

goes hard

hoping to save some $$$ for 19's or 20's not sure if i should go chrome or black with polished lip

enjoy

i went for a year without a car when i got my license, i borrowed the money off the old man n he didnt want me to buy a shit box that i'd have trouble with cuz im only on apprentice wages so he kinda had a say in wat to get.. i originally just wanted a 5spd commo but i ended up buyin this in mint condition n im happy with it

and i dont really plan on gettin rid of it unless i need a ute for work later in life..

Sweet first car, I thought I was doing well with my EF ghia as my first car :-P

Looks mint, probably one of the only cars that would suit a set of chromies.

Hmm, wonder what it would look like if you painted the reflector between the rear tail lights white?

EDIT:

Done a quick photoshop;

I'd do it

by **SnyperEB** » September 16th, 2009, 7:35 pm

Looks nice mate.

by **bushman** » September 16th, 2009, 8:08 pm

Looks mint mate, look after it aye, if you wanna go 20's go for something that looks classy not just for bling bling, something like wat holmsy has on his xr8

All the best lanes are sweet ltds are full luxo's :drinks2:

by **Nikk O'lass** » November 2nd, 2009, 4:15 pm

I'ld go for some 19's with a black center...

by **pHaT`eL** » November 2nd, 2009, 4:40 pm

Fat tyres on the rear and leave it. Check out SLY5LT to see what I mean.

looks like a VX

by **krisisdog** » November 2nd, 2009, 9:38 pm

Deosnt look bad at all though does it John? If I had a spare garnish I'd definitely have a crack at it.
First mod I'd go for would be a manual conversion, followed by a mild regrind cam. Bugger the rims, it looks tuff on the stocko's being that low :thumbsup:

looks like ima have to bagg my fairlane looks sickkk i recon :grin:

by **Dumpsta** » December 18th, 2009, 5:51 pm

Nice lane mate... loving the ride height. I'd throw on a fairmont grill, either would look sweet but a el with the chrome would look tops, just never been a fan of the NF and NL grills myself. Especially if your throwing on a set of black wheels.. put a black centre in the grill..

by **LOW_XR** » December 18th, 2009, 6:27 pm

sick car man, wanted one of these when i was looking a few years back. but got a damn eb tho lol.

by **Biggie.c** » February 21st, 2010, 7:39 pm
