Probably a silly question, but is the engine cover just clipped in place or do you have to undo something to lift it off - curious to see what lies beneath!

Lol - thy gave me an inflation kit (bottle of slime and a little compressor!) - that should be fine around town and when we go on interstate trips or similar ill just put the spare in the back...

Will investigate run flats when the time comes but I'm scared to look at their prices!!

Ill consider the above to be the staring point!

Now I need to convince the minister for finance that it needs an OTR, cat back and tune!

(Mind you, at this point I don't really think it needs more power but it definitely needs more sound throughout the range!!)

good starting point imo-lol
if you go a full exhaust system including headers etc then get a tune you will get more waspies and also get a way better sound,mine has the full system which was done but needs a proper dyno tune etc but still sounds way better than all the other vz ss's round town,always gets people looking when you give her some,but quiet when idling which is what I wanted
