    It was heaps of stuff. The big Engineering changes were relocation of the upper control arm mounting points (moved backwards) and lighter chassis steel used. There was a rear sway bar, different springs, different bushes, different suspension settings, tyres etc.

    s it worth the trouble of changing the chasis vs handling improvements? Or are there good gains to be had on pre-rts.

    from previous posts i think its been said if you doing springs, bushes, front sway bar, and shocks on your HX youll probably be HZ RTS and some

    Earlier cars will never drive as good as 6/77 onwards HX and HZ (with the same mods) but you can still make them heaps better than they were originally.
