    Ah okay. My brake pads have started to squeek and braking at slow speeds feels like ' brakes on, brake off'. Dont know if i should just upgrade or clean out the pad.
    Thanks for the info!

    Yeah DBA and brembo are both pretty sweet when braking and good quality brakes at a reasonable price there the two I would recommend.

    Yeah mate was pretty stoked with how it dropped

    Next plans really just getting the bodykit and rims put on with a few other minor things like some LED's etc

    Then moving on to the big bucks stage with the paint job, sound system and eventually the 6speed V8 box will be going in and then the real fun starts

    Update: New Altezza angel eye black headlights and Monroe black tail lights now looking killer on the ride

    Next plan is the SS bodykit, let us know what your thoughts are on the new lights and the bodykit. Cheers.









    Better photo's shall be up after Christmas.

    Wow so ended up getting a genuine SS bodykit for $480 all together was pretty stoked
    -$130 front bumper
    -$150 side skirts
    -$200 rear bumper

    Also purchased new genuine SS fog lights and a new GM fog light switch.

    Then finally got the bodykit painted of my Dads mate at his wrecker's and then I installed it all looks amazing if I may say

    Thought I might aswell do a few other things so I ended up tinting my indicators, reflectors and fog lights smoke black and lion badges are now black.

    Tow-ball was removed and black hitch cover on (till I get time to remove the whole thing) and also the calipers are now glowing a bright red

    Pictures will be up once I take my camera out and take a few haha (really I haven't had time to wash it)

    Anyways next step is my 5spd conversion I've got a choice of either a T5 or Getrag both sitting in the olds backyard.

    What do you recommend?? And what is the cheapest option??

    I've been told that to get the T5 gearbox in that I will have to customize a fair few things is it worth it?

    Cheers mate, yeah was pretty happy with the price just took a fair amount of time and effort to find them cheap and two trips to Sydney but it was worth it

    Even when I got side swiped by some prick in Sydney, I swear they get their license's out of cereal boxes lol

    I'll have to get some photo's up just haven't had time to wash the rig let alone admire the kit thanks to work
