Originally I wanted a Manual, but had very few options... 10 years later, I'm actually glad I got an Automatic...

Door Handle Upgrade...
After a year, I finally worked out how to fit the Key Operated Vectra Style Door Handle, without losing the Dead Locking feature...

ACTIVITY UPDATE: ODOMETER: 179,455 Km
I got some NEW tyres, fitted to the front today...
Finally fitted the tyre size that I've been wanting, for quite some time!
I replaced the old and hardened 225/40 R18, with new and soft 215/40 R18's
The ride is heaps smoother, but the increase in turning circle, is the Biggest Positive!!!
I also spotted that the Passenger Side Drive Shaft Boot, was split...
That will be done soon, when the front shocks are replaced...

Re: Eddey's V6 - The Ghost
The turning circle and ride comfort must be improved greatly on yours now!
That's what I noticed when I jumped to 215/45 R17
A wider profile made such a better look and feel to the overall drive!

Yes, Mate...
When they removed the 'Old Front Tyres' I saw heaps of cracks in the inner side walls...
The hardened rubber on the Old Tyres, used to make some weird sounds upon full lock...
I've always wanted to have 215's fitted at the Front, and with 235's fitted at the Rear...
I can now drive with more confidence, knowing that I've got decent rubber all round...

Re: Eddey's V6 - The Ghost...
The EML came on today, so I pulled over and did the Paperclip Test...
It read as a Code 93: Hall Effect Switch (Distributor) Low Voltage
Anyone have any idea what this might be???

Change of Wheels for The Ghost...
I'm thinking of fitting the other set of wheels, that I have...
Probably for a year or so, as the Chrome Wheels are popping up all over the place here in Sydney...
In a way it's actually good to see as my prediction came true yet again, but now it means that my car
might not turn as many heads as it usually does, as the Chrome Wheels are becoming Very Popular here...

Bringing back some of the 'Standard' features...
So I've fitted the Side Indicators in Orange again...
Do you like it???

Re: Eddey's V6 - The Ghost...
I'd move the V6 down to the bump strip on the wing.

I'll experiment with that concept, very soon...
