m8 my 00 VX has instanst thottle response. which can get rather annoying on bends and roundabouts when you just tap the gas it just pull of at once. your lag can be so to with your diff or either that car isnt tuned to the currect setting it should be

What is a "tranny Nulon enhancer/conditioner?" It hasn't got any thing to do with having a sex change has it?.....Sorry, but seriously what is it? Something to do with the transmission?
My VX used to miss and hesitate when taking off quickly but a set off Topgun 8mm leads, new plugs and a throttle body clean helped a lot, the missing was so bad that I thought the gearbox was on it's way out, but holden were right, it was the leads, the skinny little 6mm stock GMH leads.

Use the power button!

You can get your tranny reset via GMor someone else smarter.

Mystarted to change ridulously and with a ECU reset it worked like a charm!

Boys boys.
The simple and best way to improve take off response is a simple diff ratio change.
My VT had 3:08 which is standard and all i have done is change it to a 3:45. you would be surprised how much of a grin it will leave on your face when you drive it away from the diff joint.
BUT a warning: make sure while they have the thing apart they change seals and all the stuff. its worth the extra money now then when you need to do it later.
