1988 Holden Commodore SL review from Australia and New Zealand
"A worthy street machine"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Honestly nothing at all yet, it has been well maintained.
General comments?
This car will give most street cars a run for their money off the lights or even in the quarter mile running in the high 12 seconds over 400 metres.
But this is due to several factors and what I have under the hood:
Turbo, with 14 pounds plus boost.
Stage 3 intercooler.
Blow off valve, release of presure and much.
I use Optimax fuel as it gives my car better performance.
