My New Cally
« on: November 29, 2007, 14:32:34 PM »
Well heres my new V6, I picked it up at the weekend and am really chuffed with it. Glacier White with 120k on the clocks but still running well.
Not a spot of rust on it, in excellent condition but still needs a few jobs doing to it :)







My list of jobs to do (not in order)

Lower Suspension -40mm

17" DTM Style Alloys (In White)

Cat 1 Alarm and Immobiliser

Delocked colour coded handles

New Thermostat (Running very cold at the moment and heater only gives out warm air not hot)

New rocket gaskets.

Interior light needs rewiring to the correct wire and not the ignition live.

Idle speed needs to be increased a little.

My private plate needs to be put back on.

Headlining needs gluing back up.

Interior needs a damned good clean.

Vauxhall mats

Big clean with TCut

OIl + Volt Guages need installing.

New pioneer headunit needs installing.

Need to get a V6 trip computer

Traction control needs sorting out (light stays on constantly)

Brake pad wear sensors need replacing.

Drilled & Grooved discs all around.

DTM Vinyls for the sides.

HIDS

Small Irmscher Spoiler

A louder exhaust (probably in stainless)

And for sometime when ive got a bit more money, 3 litre cams, 4 bar fpr and maybe an F28 :)

So many plans! I want her up to the standard of my black redtop. Ill get there ;)

Cheers

Very nice mate, when you say 17" dtm wheels do you mean the same bbs wheels that you find on the astra coupe? I think they would look awsome in white!!

oh if anybody has any of the parts needed for the above give me a pm and let me know please ;) Cheers

Edit// Oh and by DTM style alloys i mean like BBS (dont think they do white 17" at a decent price) or liek these....



Only problem is the bk299's in white are only for 4 stud vehicles  :-\
