1987 Holden Commodore SL 3.0 from Australia and New Zealand
Summary:
Best performance for money
Faults:
Crank angle sensor.
Fuel Pump.
General Comments:
This is my first car and I must say that I'm proud of it.
Previously owned by a nice elderly chap so when I got it it was stock standard which didn't last long.
Modifications include:
Lowering 3"
Extractors and 2 1/2 inch with a high flow muffler (sounds quite tuff)
Performance plugs (NGK-iridium) and top gun leads.
K&N filter and cold air intake (as there as no aftermarket cold air intakes I cut a hole directly underneath the air box an ran 4" plumping to the front guard)
Bosch Fuel Pump.
Installed power-steering.
Customized interior.
All these mods make for an clean looking great handling and bloody quick car. IT puts all brand new commodores and falcons to shame, and even keeping up with a few stock turbo's in its time.
Still there are a few more mods I wish to do, but there is always the need for more power and that when I look to-wards the turbo. Maybe one day soon.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
