A few of you know I moved to Australia about 3,5 years ago. some of the new comers wont. but anyways. I have decided to stay. got my permanent residency, and now its time to get back into cars. I had a 2006 Pontiac Pursuit GT back in Canada, was fun, but lets face facts.. rwd FTW!!

Started by picking up a 95 VS Ute for a daily driver, lowered it, soft cover, 18's was fun... but not very fast...





Enter stage left...

2009 VE SS Ute
6L v8, 6 speed manual. dual 2.5" catback, hptuners, coilovers, adjustable sway bars

I picked up this monster. shes quick, stock its quicker than my pontiac was. this is gonne be a fun one to mod

Went on a cruise last night, good time.

 

Jelly!

 

Cool

 

was able to net a 13.9@100mph stock out of this beast. the manual makes it quite hard to keep a good launch going as first is super long, good to 80kmh...

 

That's awesome.

 

Nice

 

Much much faster than your pontiac, plus it looks bad ass. With we got those in north america

 

Nice car, wish I could have one here. I know some guys in Australia and 1/4 times don't matter half as much as how far you can lay skids lol... in for burnout vids.

 

hmmm... you seem to actually know what youre talking about. LOL

no skids in the silver unit yet, but the tyres are nearing that mark where its time to **** them up.

but here is a **** skid in my black unit

 

Looks good!

What do you do over there?

 

Seems like a neat place to live.

 

congrats on becoming a permanent resident. im loving the license plate haha
