Here's how i roll now... the only difference from the pic is the mill's matt black now and it ain't as eyecandish as it used to be XD

Spoiler:

Badass

looks nice and I bet it's got a hell of'a purr to it haha

Tnanks guys

Its called a 'Thunderbird'.... and it does ThunduRRRRRRRRRR............. XD

lol ! ,really nice one man, i would like to have one like that

Before



After I spent some time with the paint..

I know I'm kind of bumping, but I haven't shown off my baby.

1998 Holden Commodore VT Acclaim.
You can't go wrong with an Aussie car.

Ah a Holden... How much did u have to pay for it?

Only $4,500 AU.
Not bad compared to other cars I looked at.

This is the Monaro's elder brother, is it?

Nah. Monaros are 2002. Well, the ones with this body are at least.
This is its younger brother. Same body but with a few differences.

I know, it's confusing. There's a lot of Commodores which pretty much all look the same.
Like mine, which is a VT, will soon look like a VX. And all I'm doing is swapping the taillights.

Oh, and this is only a 6cyl.

Oh cool

I love the paintwork on 'Thunderbird' () by the way.
That black makes it look mean.

Thanks m8 It looks a lot more meaner now lol.. Waiting for funds for after market visual and performance parts lol

That's a fat Opel Omega B are those the taillights you wanna put on it ? Click I think it's worth it


btw judging by the big red P I think you just got your driver license, so congratulations for that

Ah look who it is lol

huh!?

I never went away, I just keep hanging on KCS everyday because I can't troll anybody here, It's empty

Ah i know m8 its been real slow ( or empty ) here don't worry its just taking a long time but i'm working on it when ever i get free time. There's just so much to do.... I keep getting work from somwhere with a deadline and so i keep getting side tracked. Anyway i'm really impatient for its launch lol

It's starting to pick up again. It has been quite slow though.

And yeah Vlad, those are VX taillights, so I'm getting those.
Thanks! Been waiting so long. Had the car before I had my licence. xD

Well it certainly is but still a long way to go. This Oct we're gonna be 4 years old.

Spoiler:

My tyres are pretty much dead, so it doesn't sound as good as it could.
Excuse the language in the video title. xD

Also:

Just picked this up last month



That's my new baby Watdaya think?

A Chevy Cruze? NICE! more pics please

Why certainly ... Let me snap a few more and i'll post it soon

Nice Ride...

Been a while since anyone has posted here.
Gotta keep it going though.

My '98 VT, as posted up the page a bit.
It has slightly changed since then.

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

More Pics Please

Are you planning to do any mods?

On another note : I sold my Chevy Cruze and brought a Green Ninja 250R

I'll get some more when I have a working camera.
Mine decided to break. -.-

So far I've changed the rims and lowered it.

I plan on fixing it up a bit. (Issues with the starter motor, need a new one... Also brakes really need to be machined).
Maybe getting it done in another colour. Gloss Black probably.
New ECU + Going to chip it. (A bit more power).
Oh, and tinting the windows a bit darker too.
Plus removing that ugly spoiler. I don't like the factory ones.
And putting on VX SS rear lights.

After a few years of saving money, might slam a 454 into it.


And nice! I love Ninjas.

Be careful when you chip it mate... I read somewhere that it can damage the spark plugs and such under stressful conditions. I was looking to chip my cruze and came across this.

Oh and a 454 engine? Don't they cost a lot? would be sweet if you could get it!

As for the ninja yea just found out that Kawasaki just launched the 2013 ninja 250
3 days right after i brought mine... so I'm kinda pissed atm XD

I'll make sure I'm careful when I do that then.
And yeah, the 454 is a bit expensive... That's why I'm leaving it until last, giving myself time to save up for it. But it would be awesome to put it in.

And haha. Honestly, the style of the older ones is better than the 2013 one...
But that's just my opinion.
