Hey all, my name is Nick or SSEN8R from Bisbane Northside. Messed with cars most of adult life (34)… I’ve got a ’97 VS II HSV Senator 185i with 196,000kms which I’ve had it for 8 years (was 148k). I bought it off a mate who was 2nd owner and who had it for 5 years. It’s stock but I have just recently replaced all the suspension replaced (KYB Shocks, Kings Springs, new SuperPro bushes all round, tie rod ends, ball joints and strut brace) so it is now a pleasure to drive. Car actually goes really sweet. Paint is looking pretty sh*t, but if I got it re-sprayed I would clean the car all day instead of enjoying it.
Since the suspension has been done, been getting into a bit of motorsport (skid pan and track days). Look for threads that will appear in Technical > Race Day section. I think the old Senator is a good track car as worse case I’m only killing a $10k car.
Been following VRSenator065’s build on other forums which brought me here. Havn’t been active on other forums, been a sleeper cell.
