[RyanVLSL]

Hello everyone

My name is Ryan im almost 20 (In 2 weeks yah ) anyway I have a 86 5 speed VL SL which ive had for almost 3 years now.

This is its engine bay as you can see it isnt a turbo ( ) but anyway it does the trick for me and I love it.

Anyway peace out hope to know some of you soon enough.

wrong rocker cover though

[RyanVLSL]

The engine has done about 300,000ks I think.

Is it cool if I post the other pics of it in here or do I have to use the gallery?

[racsov500]

one day im gonna have an engine bay as clean as that

did you clean it up yourself or was it already very shmick when you got it?

[RyanVLSL]

Oh Nick its me VY18s from BC lol.

Yeah it was like that when I got it pretty much.

[racsov500]

[RyanVLSL]

[dan_the_man]

Had one of them as my first car

Nice!

VLs are the best '1st car' i reckon, got a bit of poke and they last for ages....

Thats an impressive engine bay for sure!

However the red rocker cover with high mount GT35/40 would also look impressive

I hope the body/interior on your VL is nearly as good as the engine bay?!

[RyanVLSL]

Heres a couple of pics of the exterior aswell as the interior.

I know the plates seem a bit silly on a near stock N/A 5 Speed which is why im getting rid of them next year when the rego runs out.

Also the tacho is getting the boot aswell.

I want to try to keep it as classy and as clean as I possibly can.

Glad to hear it

[SLIPPERY]

clean for a vl

need to give the rear garnish a spray with black paint and while youre there, do the window surrounds

theyre always a nice touch

[gun32gtr]

vls are for sure the best 1st car out,go good and u can hammer them all day

gotta love the vl's, ive owned a rb30et SL for my first car (wrote it off, whoops hehe) and then i got a calais with rb26 in it.

memories, painted the engine bay and covered every unused hole in site, what a pain hehe, but it looked awesome. too much hassle so i aint gonna bother on the stagea lol :lol:

[ctjet]

StageZilla that is the fkn most wicked VL i ever seen, and i no the original owner of "PANNIC"...

u got any info on it?

[Ezz35]

nice car, one of the best first cars ever......considering i had an accord..... that purple one is the best one iv seen in a long time

[StageZilla]

cheers guys, the purple vl i sold at the start of this year and its now running the stagea rb25 with a z32 300tt 5 speed, and i took the 26 out and its in the stagea.

the guy who bought it used to come on here occasionally, but i havent spoke to him since the sale, so i dont know whats the go with it now.

looked nice and went hard and sure turned heads, but cops also turn their heads so i decided to sell for something with abit more modern parts inside and the sleeper appearance plus 4wd traction, as i couldnt imagine leaving the purple vl anywhere at shops or outside nightclubs or something, some wanker would scratch it or even steal it.

my aim was a feature in zoom or street commodores with that car but i had soo many issues in the 3 years of the ownership i didnt get it running correctly before i changed my mind to go with a stagea.

cheers

Brad
