sorry to sound like an ass but how come u spendin $1400 to get a v8 put in?? its not a bad bad price n all, but:
1) u just spent money on gettin the exhaust put on and its gonna be useless when u convert.. geussin it cost $800ish??
2) for $1400 you could have made ur i6 manual and have a lumpy ass cam and a higher ratio LSD and be runnin in the 14's..

Agreed. Or, $1400 could have bought you most of a turbo and manifold for the 6.

turn it to a manual... best thing you can do to an auto :p getting mine done in a week or so, getting the exhaust done monday, you should be able to get it converted to a manual for like 1250, cheaper if you install it your self, much cheaper.. and that will also get a nice manual ecu, normaly from a xr6 or something

When I saw the heading "new vinyl inserts" I was expecting some lairish disgusting thing in green or red or something, but that actually looks quite good. You just need some chrome handles to finish it off!

It's not just party out the back, it's a party front and back. Doesn't look very good though.
Get some antennas and go around arresting people!

build a rep? ay?
One member has criticised you, everybody else has said the car is tops. I rate it too, and I like the Terry Ghia badging location although the 1st pic has the lettering looking a little "wonky". Not sure if it's due to the camera angle or not, but could it be redone/straightened up?

must be the angle side on they look straight , yeh some peoples comments should stay comments and not be real assholish about . instead of saying its like magnets on a fridge tell me its not your taste but meh

dude, ONE member has poo-pooed you. All the others have given the thumbs up.
It's the internet. Grow thicker skin.

putting additional badges on your car doesnt make you cool.
if you dont like criticism, vicfords.com.au
