    I remember having compression sessions (buckets) in a mates vn Berlina around 2003 listening to this WU song.
    Those front fog lights looks spicy as.

    Sweet Vp brock. A full service will help. K&N air filter, pacemaker headers with hi flow cats. Love the sound of my Vt clubsport 5L with pacemakers, worth every cent. Replace the suspension with monroe shocks and king springs. 18 inch wheels are a much smoother ride and cheaper tyres than 20 inch.

    Its cool bro. Personally I think it sounds pretty good - I've owned a few HSVs and I think the 5L sounds really nice even compared to them - you wont regret spending a bit on the suspension to make it feel a bit better as well - not only in general but in the wet etc.

    Bump up the compression if you ever put money into the engine it will make it a lot healthier

      @BrockHarper don't stroke it go with some flat tops to bump up compression a decent cam and injectors with a tune should see it getting 3rd gear powerskids, or the cheeky vortec on the stock engine will make it do pretty similar

      @BrockHarper if you really want to ls swap a 6.0 and the 6l80 will last a long time if not a 5.7 and a semi built 4l60 or 6 speed would be tough

      @victorpeirce4753 it should with 10 to 1 compression some neat injectors and a cam+tune should do that. It would be more torque based but should definitely smoke 3rd with normal tyres. Your not wrong though I have seen diff gears wake stock 304's up especially 5 speeds
