    You paid too much, can get these alot cheaper than 12k, without any work needed... and you didn't even get it in a manual - u'll soon regret that if you haven't already realised it.

    Hey man very nice Bf, Bionic is an awesome color.

    Some advice, don't change the diff to a much shorter ratio like 3.55:1, the ratio is tall on the 6 speed auto because first gear is already very short, if you change it, it will make the first few gears way too short to use practically, also from what ive heard and read the ZF is a very fussy box, changing the ratio may cause it to play up. None of the turbo boys have changed the diff ratio on these boxes so best left alone.

    Why do you want full locked diffs? Just swap out for a Xr6 turbo LSD. Locked diff will be shit for road use.

    Good luck with it, you got a good deal for 12k

    thanks guys, nah no way would i ever put a locker in it, that's just a dumb idea for a daily drive car.
    i wasn't sure about the gearbox, i've been told they're tempremental things and also very precise so i'll take your advice and leave it alone.

    yeah it's a wovr car and i bought it as it was for 8,500 with all mechanical components repaired, i spent 2k on panel work and close to a grand on panels and parts for myself to cheapen the repairs as much as possible, so really it came out well.

    considering it only has 109,000 on the odometer i'm stoked, i've gone from a vt commodore to this, so really this is a dream to drive,
    however i loved my commodore
