Hello.

Noob here. And all the way in Perth. :oops:

I own a 97 Facelifted FTO GPX in Icecelle Blue. I've had this since February 2001 - At that time, there weren't many here in Perth at all.

Anyhoo .. Just wanted to say Hi from way over here. :wink:

Attached is a sh*tty photo taken from my phone some time ago.

    Yeah. I'm actually trying to lock in a respray over the next few months .. and was thinking of colours. I really like the Holden Cosmo colour (which is the dark purpley one), but now thinking of just getting the same Icecelle Blue again. I like it because it's rare and looks purple at night. Also it'll save me heaps because I won't need to respray the door sills and engine bay etc. :D

    Well folks i have just joined and jus saying hello to everyone.

    Im buying an fto in about 2 weeks after selling my turbo mirage so i am actively going through tons of threads here to get more info.

    However i think im gonna swap that 2.0 mivec for a 4g93t or 4g63t and build from there. im absolutely lost in thev6 world and parts for that are hard to come by, so i gues i will stick to one of those engines and pop in parts, which are readily available.
