    I really like the wheels. Engine mods sound good too. Just get some V series tail lights.

    Yeah it's a l98, the ls2 is used in the hsv ve and vz.
    pretty much same engines just tuned differently.

    I hate the spoilers that's why their called spoilers they spoil the boot.

    the tune is part of it the l98 has better heads ie bigger valves and smaller port design than the ls 2 heads both are 6 point mains caps and the ls2 has a cam in it as compared to the l 98. The l98 also has lower compression than the ls 2 so technically they are not the same. The l98 is a new engine and is rumored to have the potential to make more hp than the ls2 if the mods are performed to bring it up to ls2 specs

    Change the spoiler to a bootlip spoiler, v series black tail lights. Cant say i like the wheels at all, but it's your car.

    Cam,otr,tune and diff gears!
