Hey guys, GRRRR8 invited me to join, so here I am :)

I've got a 2007 Holden SSV which is Black with Black & Red interior. Here are a few of pics....

The car is sitting on Walkinshaw wheels and Tein coil over suspension. The sound system is all Alpine. The car also has a Walkinshaw 'Power Pack' which makes it a little more fun to drive, but still docile and reliable :) Some more mods coming in about a month or so ;)

WOW!!!!! I am so moving to Oz. Think of all the shipping fees I would save. That is a beautiful car. Thanks for the pics. Does that company sell to the US?

Tell us about your wheel sizes and tire widths.....

Love the stealth look.

For the moment, I think Walkinshaw are only in Aus, NZ and UK. Check out their website for more info http://www.walkinshawperformance.com.au/

I chose WP because I wanted a company that will stand by their work. Sure they are slightly expensive, but for the peace of mind alone, I didn't really care. Walkinshaw has a long running history with Holden too, but I'm sure you now all about that ;)

20 x 8, 245/35/20 front & rear. I do, however, have a new set of wheels on order. They should be here in a few weeks. I actually haven't told anyone about them yet, so you guys are the first to know! :D

Welcome aboard Bob.
Great looking setup you got going there.

These look great as well.

AP Racing.
6pot 2piece fronts, 4pot rears
Similar to those on the W427 except the label on the caliper.

Is that available aftermarket? And for export? I really want my car when its done to be as Oz looking as possible.

AP Racing gear originally comes out of UK
You just need to find out all the components and get directly from UK, not much sense importing it into 2 countries unless you have to.

The Phanton colour is growing on me, I only had a choice of screaming green or Phantom when I bought my Clubsport, yours is looking good! How does your insurance company treat you with the modifications? I mentioned sub-woffers to mine and they wanted to disown me.

Then you need a new bumper, grille and bonnet! The rest is pretty much as they're sold in OZ.

Phantom with Black & Red interior was my only option, I wasn't going to budge. Luckily for me, our dealer had received my car into his stock two days prior. It's a May 07 build which I purchased in June :)

As for the sound system, umm, next question. LOL

I plan on the HSV-GTS conversion. Then just the steering wheel will be on the wrong side! lol
