that drop in ride height looks real nice, now we need to hear the headers and intake in action!

It looks good, I bet it handles and runs better too. I don't see a tune listed, you definitely need one with those mods. Great job!

Looks good!

Thanks man.


The drop is perfect. How many "s lowered?

The front went from 654mm to 615mm, which is roughly 1.6"

The rear went from 650mm to 605mm, which is roughly 1.75"

Thanks! Don't worry, I took all the notes for you. I'll be posting up links to the DIY articles soon.

I got it from gmpartshouse, Gene Culley.

But you can get it from a sponsor on this site, Pace Performance, if you want the pontiac v crest knob like I have. And it's a few bucks cheaper.

Or you can get the one with the Holden lion from Crazy Paul, another sponsor here. I got the steering wheel from him.

The only difference is one has the pontiac symbol and the other has the holden lion.

NP bro :)


Nice work. Very clean.

Thanks Charlie

It was $370 total from Crazy Paul. It was very easy. There were a couple things I would change in the install instructions to make it easier, but overall simple.

Looks really nice. I think the stance looks great, and the red inserts inside look very nice.

i have a question about that Volant intake. If you take off that plate that says Volant on it, is there anything underneath? a hole?
Car looks awesome by the way. Perfect combination of mods.

The car can be run with the cover on or off, some say there's a little more power with it off.

So that Volant plate on top is an actual cover to get to the filter? Sorry if this is a dumb question, I have no idea. If its a simple enough peice, i may purchase one and make my own cover.

You can make your own cover, it's just to access the filter.
