I got the car recently and have a few things to do to it.
Already in the middle of the DOD Delete.
Needs to be painted as its a Black and White car.
Need to replace that rubber floor
Driver side door panel needs help
Need to fix a few mounting holes on the roof and trunk.
It has an open differential that NEEDS to go.
want to pick up a set of wheels.
i'll start a build thread for you guys to see what i am up to and so that you gays help me out when i screw things up.
Thanks.

Maybe you want my 2.92 posi? I am looking for a 3.27 posi center section from a 10-15 Camaro and they are available but pricey. Let me know if 2.92 LSD is something you want to do.
So far, I'm enjoying my '13 9C3 more by the minute.

ALL caprices came with the limited slip diff , so either your clutches are worn , or the wrong fluid is in it , or both

Really???? -- While on the lift and in parking i rotated the driver side forward and the passenger side rotated backwards -- it felt like a regular open differential NO resistance whatsoever.

my guess is your clutches for the lsd are worn , the bad is GM doesnt sell just the clutches , atleast in the US , im not sure if they did in Australia or not
