Hi Bob,

Don't do that, it might slow you down. Aussie versions look far tougher anyway.

Have you done any engine work?

Cheers,
Nik

No engine work. If I do in the future though, I'll also do a brake upgrade, just seems like common sense to me. I was hunting a set of Brembos on eBay (I know, I know) but I forgot to bid and they sold for the opening bid (AU$1600)

Breyton Race GT Black: 20 x 8.5 (245/35/20), 20 x 10 (285/30/20)

I had to have the rear fender (lips) rolled as I had some scrubbing issues, I kinda still do over HUGE bumps.... but I don't care

Hi,

Looks VERY evil. Enjoy!

Just put some black rims on my daily too. Great minds.

Cheers,
Nik

Pontiac REALLY needs to take notes from Holden. That is how it's done. best looking sedan on the 6.

lemansz20 has a little shameless behaviour in the past
Doesnt pontiac have a car that looks JUST like this with a great v8 in it? I mean I saw that car on the road and it looks very nice. I dont know how the car is, but it definately looks really good to me and im sure great bang for buck.

Hi,

While I really love this car, you have to remember how common they are here in Australia. The R8 is an absolute animal, but I've already seen about ten driving around, and I live rurally.

This is definitely one of the nicer examples wheeling around the country though.

Cheers,
Nik

Yup, the G8.
