20's, slammed, sway bar, strut brace, camber caster kit, - sexiest car ever.

They do deserve a little respect I personally think they are as decent looking car with a fair amount of performance. It's the weight of the vehicle that kills it at the end of the day. If it weighed in closer to a tonne it would handle very well What saddens me is the fact that they are way over priced. They do not retain their value that well. Interior beutiful exterior nice, but when i'm along side these cars in my fd they look like a double decker bus..

guys, i own one and ive already got the plan in motion to drop a 402 stroker in it, and strengthen up the drive line considerably, there a freaking nice car and the standards you get on them are fantastic

UGGLLYY 2 door Commodore!! wink.gif (Not yours mate the first one lol).

It's funny when people attempt to pay Monaros out, because they're "2 door Commodores". wink.gif

Does that mean a EVO is just a tarted Lancer? Or a WRX is a tarted up Impreza? By my definition, yep they are.

225KW might not seem like alot from such a big engine, but a Monaro would wipe the floor with alot of standard jap cars.

Here here thumbsup.gif They reckon lag is to give V8's a chance laugh.gif logic would have that tubo's are to give 4cyl's a chance!! the fastest alcohol dragsters in the world aren't 4cyl turbos hey wink.gif if they ever catch up, smack a turbo on the 426 Hemi and there's still no substitute for cubes cool.gif

Thanks for the comments tatus ln the next 6 months you will see some more changes that should make it stand out a whole lot more
kerpal
I only like the interior
TPG
That would put out just a little more then the stock 225kw...probably 3 times the amount...

Very nice.
revhead888
they look nice... but are a bit funny on a track..
sound good coming toward you down the str8 but when they pass they sound like a vacuum cleaner in reverse.... needs a decent exhaust. and brakes fade pretty quick *~*
