Here is my first ride(in the attached bit...green one). I bought it in june of 2005. It was a great day. My first Commodore. Not to bad either. VPSII. I had big plans. Modded it a little, neons here, stero there. Then one fateful morning....Karyn SI met her untilmley demise....i crashed into some trees on my way to work.
After much deliberation i decided to get another commodore i was this close to getting a 86' Citroen BX..this close! This time i got a VNSII. Karyn SII was born. If you hadn't noticed i named my first car karyn and well the second car is like a memory of the first but better...sorta....anyway. Got some work to do on VNSIIKSII..shes not road worthy yet but it does have rego till feb 07. Not much to do, new tires all round and a control arm somewhere. The rest is ok. She runs like a dream and the zorst sounds like a 2.5"...dont tell me why... i dont want to know, really i dont...

Found out why my exhaust sounds so good
The guy or guys who had this before me decided to make there own special zorst. From the cat it goes into a sports muffler then from that back....."Did someone say straight pipe?" it sounds like a 2.5" for a reason!!!
