That car is a credit to you, a very well presented UC. Would like to see the tail lights straight on and from a lower perspective please.

A lovely looking car.

Moar photos

Find a mate who has a DSLR and take it out to an industrial estate to get some nice shots

I'll be doing this with my friend when I get my new wheels on.

Funny thing is his camera is probably worth more than my car!

Paint makes all the difference

lol

oh i also fitted some new tyres to the front that my mate @ Vella Tyres got me they are 215/40/17 and gave me heaps more clearance so much so that i can now lower the front down another half inch where as before they would scrub turning into spoon drains and what not

i'll be getting these for the back too soon but in 235's

well splashed out on the torana yet again and got the following:

HD clutch
Gearbox overhauled & FLywheel Machined
Diff Gears Changed to 3.55
And some WRX STI bucket seats (still gotta work out how im going to fit them)

So far i love the Ratio Change still going easy on it for a bit but noticable difference really livened it up alot!

here's a Picture of my seats

Posted Image

they are so comfortable and hold very well exactly what i wanted

Has anyone done WRX seats into torana's before? the rails arnt too far off the width of the torana ones so hopefully it wont be to hard of a job!

Will keep u all updated with how i got with fitting them
