If you're sticking with a stock engine then weight reduction will be important.

Some good shocks in the rear and get some of those 4 point camber/toe rear bush kits to help keep those tyres maintain a decent contact patch when the bitch squats hard under load when you're trying to leave the hole. A better option may be to find a rear subframe from a VY or VZ Commodore as they have much better rear end geometry and the extra toe links which will help to put the power down better.
Thank you for your help
I am thinking of doing a sub frame change
To a vz one
Im going to have king spring lows in it witg kyb shorten shockers you think that will be ok and ill be running 245 15inch et street radials as well

I have to say those rims really do match your car :) Looks great :) Chrome handles would really set it off, I go pedders springs as they twice as thick as king springs. And from my understanding those clip on kits can un clip and be run over easily so make sure you fasten them on really good. Keep up the good work still can't get over how nice those rims look on it.
