seems like the problems are fully gone, thanks for the advice :)

my brother has installed the new ignition leads already. he hasn't been able to fully test it out but preliminary indications are that it has fixed the problem. i'll psot another update once he's driven it properly for a while then i can confirm the issue is resolved.

no cam, the car is running fine otherwise.

update! i have the stock rear muffler fitted, seems to bolt right up, the car pretty much sounds very close to stock now. down the line i will probably fit 2.5" rears so i can hear a little bit of a growl and the crackles and pops aren't completely castrated. for now i am very happy.

same with my parents' international. if it were me though i'd prob go the FG but i'd be a liiiiiiiiiiiittle worried about the ZF gearboxsad

if i could go back in time several years to when i bought it i'd probably get a mint condition VXII SS instead and have some fun with that. i definitely wouldn't modify the performance side of it again either, just the sound system. as mentioned there is a chance the electronics will play up in...

so y'all reckon most of the drone is from the diff back not because of the 3" pipes?

at the moment i have the SSV Z series sedan with full manta exhaust in 3" mild steel, quiet option. i also have a OTR CAI and have it dyno-tuned for 360rwhp. there's too much drone for me, i'm really sick of it now and want to make the car quieter. there's a few things i need to factor into my...

how's he a great leader? he just lies all the time, he's one of those people who just makes stuff up all of the time even when it doesn't make any sense

down to the last week, grim

willing to travel to canberra? i'm looking to return my car to stock

probably not, comes down to price really and I'm more in the commodore than HSV price category that too
