painted my shiz.

all thats left is to mount my hydro and bleed it, and realign my front subframe/figure out why one side has more castor and more camber than the other.

Those headers are way too cheap. They will be completely covered in rust within one week.

the headers i posted back on about page 1?

there actually HSV headers off a VY SS clubsport... their a stock option type of thing

ive since changed to a stock cast 6ltr VE SS manifold as it was easiest to make work

That is quite the transformation. Looked like a clean vert to begin with. Not my style but good for you for sticking to it and getting it up and running.

So I take it you drift enthusiast’s don’t really care about aero fitment because you go through front and rear bumpers like fat kids through cake?

funnilly enough this is the first car where i was like. fuck it. ill buy genuine aero (all origin aero) and everything fits like total shit haha.

got to the point that i was like stuff it, and slapped it all on as a "for now" thing. the cars got a photoshoot coming up once i change some stuff up and get the cage done so ill adjust some bits so the front end isnt so janky...

that, and i was expecting the front/rear bars/sideskirts to last maybe one lap? lasted all day somehow hahaha. but yeah. us drift guys generally dont care much for kit fitment. i just go off the "as long as it looks good from 10ft away" rule
