    Looks clean mate... you need to get it on FE2 atleast though cause its sitting a touch high.

    What are the plans for it?

    Manual or auto?

    serious? you sure the previous owner didn't throw in standard springs? Cause... I dunno if its just me... but... thats some guard clearance you got there!

    Doesn't matter i guess since your lowering it anyway!

    Nice, leathers seats should be sweet!

    Good luck

    Now, no S/C or turbo but stuff like cam, exhaust etc.

    Hey nice car great buy..


    Best would be a 3.73 - 3.89 diff. Can knock half to a full second off 0-100 without increasing power. Pretty cheap 2nd hand.

    That with Cam ported heads twin throttle body full exhaust you be smoking.

    LOL I still have HOLDEN badges on in that was just what it looks like on another similar car haha.

    New pics up again!

    Blue glowing floor + 199999klms on odometer lol.

    Got the blue hoses from Supercheap Auto, as well as the gauge 'cause I work there

    You connect the new vac hose into the existing vac hose with a T piece. there is a hose coming out of the back of the engine. it will have a little white filter on it too, just cut it - put the T piece in and then wire it up!
