Josh's 2003 VY-II SS Sedan 6sp

The rip shifter is pretty sweet!
Pro's - the gear stick is really stiff now in the syncros. It has very little play from side to side when in gear.
Very Precise/shortened throw from 1st to 2nd.
Throw from 2nd to 3rd is bang on the money every time with No thought or effort.
The space between 1-3-5-r and 2-4-6 is tiny! Like a cm appart now n u can't miss a gear cause of the way the H-pattern is set out.

Cons - when looking for neutral it seems hard to get the shifter to go side to side.
Bit weird to get used to. Gotta feel round n learn the box before u start going 5th to 3rd n trying to skip gears while down shifting.
Stock gear knob won't go back on 100% straight lol, ehh

The grille was a weekend project
Used the dremel n cut the Holden badge out.
Used some thin bits of wood the hold the two sides together n close the gap.
Sheeted up some fibre glass n that resin/catalist stuff n just layered it up till I was happy.
Used an electric sanded n smoothed it all out how I wanted.
Primed it n sanded it a few times to get rid of a few last tiny air bubbles and then sprayed it matte black

After the new number plates arrive then I'll be done with the cars appearance for a while.

Still gotta get round to doing coilovers... Too lazy.

I put on the strengthened drive shaft last night as well as the Varex muffler, 3" catback, 2.5" 100cell cats, and the tri-Y pace maker headers with new NGK iridium spark plugs.

Took a few hours but it all ended up fitting. It's currently at the zorst shop getting bits cut/paste so that they don't rub/ vibrate on the floor of the car haha.
Also getting different tips welded onto the Varex muffler.

Re painted my wheels satin black.
Put stock head lights back on to see if I like them better or not, I'm not sold on them so I think I'll just alternate between stock n drl's.
Got my new plates finally
