    WH 2001 Statesman LS1




    Picked it up today, It has some problems (Roof lining thumb tacked up, bonnet struts, nothing major) but for most people their dream cars are Ferrari's, Lamborghini's or some other exotic. Mine was a statesman with an LS1 and i couldn't be happier for $3,000
    Quick edit: Besides those ugly ass rims.

    Nice ride mate, looks like a pretty clean car for it's age
    I always liked the WH & that being a 2001 will have the LS6 intake manifold.

    Any plans for mods?

    No plans yet besides an exhaust (way too quiet stock) and maybe a MAFless OTR air intake and tune.

    Looking good, have you lowered it a little or is it just the photo? And yeah, what did the exhaust place mess up?

    Re: WH 2001 Statesman LS1

    Sorry for the late reply (Lost my password ), I asked them to cut out the middle two mufflers but they decided it'd be best to cut out the rear resi instead. It hasn't been lowered but for some reason it has king springs on the rear with standard shocks on the front and rear?

    The paint has been tidied up a little until i can do a closed door respray too. Slowly doing work to it but lack of work and money doesn't help. Figured i'd do all the cheap shit first.

    That would drone something awful!

    I guess you are looking for another cat back now?

    Going to get the mufflers cut out this weekend to save myself some cash and i'll pick up something to take the drone out and shove on the rear.

    I would think you might be better off buying a complete aftermarket 2 1/2 inch cat back mate.
    You can often find them on ebay quite cheap & they are not hard to install at home.
