Little drive today, Royal National. The red VY in this pic has a 234/236 or so cam and ITB's. He also broke a driveshaft today..

And spot the odd car out. Two clean stock looking cars, and a rather typical northern beaches special.

MSD coil brackets. Doesn't make it go faster or make it more reliable, but they look cool. Also got the oil done (old stuff was seriously dark...) and hooked up the catch can properly (finally). Thing feels absolutely mint.

Next: brake upgrade, slotted discs and proper pads. Cheaper than HSV brakes by a large margin, and then some kinda cam and valve train setup. Highly likely I'll need a new clutch with that as well.

Fleabay and $160 odd I think. Getting these worked out cheaper than new engine covers as mine are trashed beyond repair.

Brakes needed a bit of a reheat... So I got these. C6/SSZ/VZ Monaro setup. Clean everything up and bolt them on with some nice rotors and pads, should pull the thing down a bit better.
