Hi from down under !

[AusStinger]

Hi all. New to the forum and new to the Stinger GT.
Hoping to learn more about this machine I've purchased ( since it's SO different from the last couple of cars I've owned ).

I know to use the search button so hopefully I won't ask too many pre-asked questions

P.S. Just call me Aus.

Hey Aus, congratulations and welcome. Tell us about your Stinger and where you're located.

Welcome aboard, Aus! And thank you for signing up. Congratulations on your Stinger GT! What did the Stinger replace for you? I’m glad you found us.

G’day @AusStinger, welcome to the forum, what colour combo did you go for & what State/Region are you in.

Hey Aus, congratulations and welcome. Tell us about your Stinger and where you're located.

Thanks. Only got the Stinger 10 days ago ( it was only built Aug 2020 ) and have only done around 300km so not much has happened. So far I've installed crash camera's and K&N filters. Bi-Modal exhaust and Mishimoto OCC are still on the way so they're next.

Located southern Sydney area.

Thanks. Glad to be amongst people who know about this Korean Beast. I'm still coming to grips with it. BIG differences from other cars I've owned.

The Stinger replaced this modified 2010 Holden Commodore



Before that, a number of modified turbo NISSAN's ( hell, I I'll modify a toilet if I can find the parts ).

Must say though.... This Stinger already has so much in it, I don't think I'll be doing too much to it. ( you can't hold me to that though ).

G’day @AusStinger, welcome to the forum, what colour combo did you go for & what State/Region are you in.

After much looking, I decided on Hichroma Red with Black interior. Never had a red car before and I like the way it sets off the black and shadow chrome.

After looking at your list of work you've done already ( and ShannonC's ) it looks like there are a number of temptations to be had.....

HCR is a good colour as they all are. I’ve had mine since Nov.17 & for first bang for your buck do the swayba upgrade.

Front only or front and rear ? Also Eibach or Whiteline ? ( this may have been a bad idea )

Both front & rear, I have Eibach Swaybars & Whiteline HD Endlinks

 

[RedCal]

Welcome to the hive! Great colour choice as well, I can second the Eibach front and rear sways,... just to add fuel to the fire

 

[GenesisG70]

Welcome mate.

 

[MerlintheMad]

Aus, you show us a pic of the former ride and not the HCR Stinger? Now, that is weird. Welcome to the forum.

Great colour choice Aus. Welcome to our forum.

Give him time Merlin. Always impatient. LOL.

Welcome! My brother-in-law owns a 2006 GTO otherwise known as a Munaro I believe. Love the Australian cars, too bad about the loss of the industry there.

Good news is Kia makes a kick-ass rear wheel drive family hauler to replace the commodore and falcon.

Yes not a bad replacement over here the Stinger. Correct spelling is Monaro.

Welcome @AusStinger , to our stingerforum, and Congrats on your new Stinger GT, hope to see some photos, also have you already thought about re-badging it..?

I got the Superpro kit front and rear with adjustable links. Well worth it.

Hi AusStinger glad you joined the select, Red and black will be nice especially washed and polished. Get ready for a sore neck when you keep looking back at her.
