    The difference in performance you feel in an ex chaser is because of the better serviceing! I have heard from some of my mates that are holden mechanics, that the cars usually have less carbon deposit.

    Help with Wheels

    18 inch wheels are legal as long as your car had 16 inch wheels as standard. As far as the tyre width... 235 is fine.

    insurance

    I pay nothing!!! When I got quoted $2000 plus for insurance, i figured that as long as i dont crash my car for 4 years I cut even. I just have to pray that i dont get hit by a crazy $100K four wheel drive and then get stuck with the bill!!! I have seen what happens to uninsured drivers in a...
