First Modifications

If your going to modify a car, what do you do first? Exhaust, front mount etc?

>pic related, my 1986 manual VL Commodore

Depends on the car. Some need better brakes, some need more bracing, some need cooling, all varies.

Minispool, up the boost, Stockies on the back and E1 Clubsport wheels up front.

>any outstanding maintenance that needs doing
>full detail inside/out
>tinted windows and decent stereo

Stage 1:

I suggest

1.Begin by cheaking/clearing all your filters.
2.Change your oil.
3.Check their are no major problems with the engine and transmission.

Mods:

1. Change breaks. Dont go fucking super expesive ... by something reasonable, since your not driving a lambo or porche 911.

2. Next get a suspension system that will increase your handling.

>start with those

Nothing cause a stock VL is rare.

that or Brake wise you could go VN Group A but they need a suitable 16inc rim. That or VT brake kit places offer but that seemed hit and miss when I read about it long ago.

Mine needs alot

4 pot conversion
Trans cooler
Bunch of misc shit like suspension tweaks.

You car is a piece of shit. Keep it stock, use it to get to work, save your money until you can buy something better.

Is it a turbo? If not, why the fuck would you need an intercooler

VL's are a good base

unless its rooted

Looks fine, better than the E series

OP save up for one of these pretty sure they drop straight in minimal mods needed.

Stage 2:

For me to go any further you need to state the kind...

As i read on wiki. It stated that their were 4 models.

Do you have the 5 speed manual?

Is it the factory turbo one? CAI, Exaughst and Tune then boost BOOST PSSSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHCCCCCCCCCC

No other car is talked up as much as the VL
VL a shit

no that would be this pos

No, VL a shit

>chuck out the RB30 and put in an AMC 4.0 instead

Wow, you really are retarded Falcunt.

personally if i had a vl these would be the mods id do
minispool with 3.9 diff gears
vt brake upgrade (the stock ones are painfully shit the two pot vt brakes on the front will haul this up well especially considering it weighs 300kilos less than a vt)

>VL a shit
Fuck off newfag

OP, Barraswap the cunt

VL's are shit
Truth

Cunt, you are cruisin for a bruisin.

A steering wheel and seats?
Ironic really, thats implying you can actually drive the thing as opposed to pushing the fucker up on a tow truck

fite me fag

Oh dear god please help me no.

That's fucked up.

Yeah its not mine

fite me fag

jesus fuck lol

fite me
cum on

>BCF carpark

alrite

Looks to be in good nick mate. Not many unmolested VLs left. Treat her right.

>BCF carpark

The fucking BCF carpark!

What a sack of shit

First mods:

Leaking seals
oil change then seafoam then again with mobile1 10w30
new box filter if its not too restrictive
Spark plugs
Spark plug wires
distributor/rotor
silicone vaccum lines and intake hoses
new injectors/new filters
fuel filter
then any worn suspension components
lastly some nice tires

despite having an ugly front end, au's are known for being mechanically A grade and can withstand whatever you throw at them. The ugly part means you can get them for bargain prices. you also literally can not go wrong with a 4L straight 6.

dat stage zero

Maintenance and then real engine upgrades like a head swap. Almost anything else is faggy boyracer shit.

Dat all you need friend

i hate commos with a passion but that actually looks really cool

>stage
>"increase handling"
>constant misspelling
Love the satire m8 and I see you already got a (You), thanks for raising the bait game on the board.

>AU Falcon
>shit

You've obvs never owned one. It may look like shit (the first few times you look at it) but it's a fully sick reliable tank and gets prettier the more you look at it.

I miss my AU.

Thats a clean VL.
you should keep it clean, they will be worth money soon because every dickhead on their p plates had one and destroyed it.
