Had the basics done, as in the Wortec exhaust etc and AP brakes.
Next step is likely to be the diff (3.9) and probably stiffer suspension springs.
Anyone had this done and whats the difference compared to standard?
Should I instead look at a supercharger and the insurance hike that goes with it?
Thanks

Diff seems a cert.
Anyone got the wortec adjustable suspension upgrade? or have you just gone for stiffer springs?
This is another option www.racelogic.co.uk/ which comes with a 'start' option. Kind of interesting to give control but thats what the right foot is for?

Decision time.
have decided on getting the 3.9 diff upgrade and gone for the very un Monaro upgrade of the Race Logic Traction Control. Was not totally convinced on the traction control but having read a lot of positive reviews (and no negative) think its for the best, especially with the new diff. Mr sensible head has decided that the LCD version will give safety in the wet and fun in the dry with the entertaining diff. Apparently it means you can do full power all the time on corners (but not going into them) so cold wet roundabouts won't be quite as bad.
Will post what its like once its done

I was not convinced about traction control either. Last winter however my unmodded car was very slow on roundabouts and slippery on corners. With the wortec exhaust mods and the upcoming diff I am kind of worried about the winter months (and the car is used daily for my commute). I really dont want to be ripped on roundabouts by front wheel drive 'normal' cars or be vey tentative in corners.
The existing system is not that good. On track I have turned it off as it stopped me getting a good run(on the straight at Brands Hatch) so totally understand the anti tc feeling.
The racelogic system appears to be one with ability to make the car go faster, round track and in slippery conditions, also allowing for going sideways upto 25% or off completly.
Once its done I will update. If anyone has ideas where the LCD control should be pls post, centre console seems a good idea??
