MY9.5 VE SS Manual
yeah nice buy mate, to get a near new SS ute basically for the price of the SV6 new your laughing. I paid a whole bunch more for my SS sedan new, she has done just over 2000K's and everything still looks and smells brand new. And a manual in Karma you can't go wrong ;-)

ive been told alot of bad things about king springs. especially that they sag and are rough riding. i got pedders sports riders in my ue on 22"s and it sits right on the tyre. very happy with it =]. also been told lovells are good also

Aren't Pedders just repainted king springs anyway? Im not too sure on lovells, every car i've been in with them has been rough as hell to ride in :( handle well but rough.
I'm thinking of going a Air hammer induction kit, would this be much of a improvement over a high perf panel filter?

I agree andy.. i have had a few V8's and have given them a flogging ( once they have warmed up of course ) and have never had a problem. Although in the HSV owners manual it says not to drive at top speed untill the car has done 5,000 k's and then if you do not to sit at top speed for more than 5 minutes...
something to do with the rear axle....

I wonder what top speed is in the LS3's....... ?
