As a teacher I can tell you that you are pretty rare amongst teenagers these days. Most kids would have no idea what to do with money. Except for the fact that your first car is supposed to be a piece of sh*te! you have done pretty well!! I talso doesn't matter what you do, I have known a cabinet maker who earns a truck load of money custom fitting shops. If you are good! It doesn't matter.

Yer na my goal has always been for a 20g or more first car. that's right you can earn a lot in the long run.

Just getting super low springs all round but maybe later on I was thinking more pedders xa coilovers ?

Pedders are alright... but in my opinion theres better ones out there for cheaper.

D2 in my mates project car for the coilovers, drag spec, the centre cylinder is so thick means it can take a good beating.

But if you dont want coilovers, I wouldnt go bilstein shock and springs because you will lose alot of the comfort in your current suspension.

Ok its pretty much down to this. do you want comfort or handling/performance?

If you still want comfort, id go lowered lovells springs or king springs lowered, if you want handling and performance go bilsteins full shock and spring setup.

and if you got the dosh (money) go coilovers from D2 or if you really dont care about money go pedders. personal opinion D2 are just as good as pedders.

Im on my 3rd car at the age of 20 lol.

first was a VR commodore. drove... like a tissue box. but the buwick engine in it was gold.

2nd was my AU II fairmont ghia which I wrote off not to long ago.

and my current car. 2010 G6E in the god damn annoying to look after gloss black x.x.

nothing yet apart from HID foggies, HID headlights, led t10 parkers

currently saving for rims 20's staggered, maybe D2 coilovers, either herrod or growler cold air intake, bigger piping, hi flow cat, keeping the stock mufflers to keep it quiet, new extractors, new tip, flash tune it. that's about it for now till I can think of more lol

Great work on the car bud!

Winter white has to be one of the sexiest colors the g6e's come in

I had springs in my old xr6 when I lowered it (ssl's I think) and the ride height was nice and it rode smooth. But I now use coils from ozzy tyres and I love them. They go pretty low and the handling is ridiculously good (you do feel every frickin bump though having it so low).

Those wheels really suit the car as well!

Any planned mods?

Yer love the white aye so easy to look after. Yer I will see how they go ( when they arrive ). Oh yer I seen ozzy tyres do lowering so sounds pretty good, you will always feel every bump but when it's low but yeh only few more outside mods that's it aye not going to touch engine till I can get turbo one.
