You have to change your kernel:
Flash this using odin : http://d-h.st/hcS

Sorry to be a pain but do I use XXLPQ-OXX ICS 4.0.3 or XXLSJ-OXX (Jellybean leak) i'm on i9100xxlq6

Or you can try flashing to a stock rom first and then retry flashing the custom rom

Tried flashing Philz kernel and it still failed to install the rom saying installation aborted.

i said ROM, not Kernel...
go back to a stock ICS or GB rom if you want via Odin, and then retry the JB

Do I need to do anything with my kernel?

You dont seem to know the basics pal.The stock rom he linked contains kernel/modem/rom so have a guess what happens when you flash them to your phone.

TBH we all have to find out the info at some point and this is my time to find out.

True, but you have to know the basics before flashing or else youll be the one with the non working phone.
Eg.If you had read a little bit about nand backups, you could have your phone back to how it was in 5 mins, before you messed with other roms.
So once you have your rooted phone to your liking you make a backup.Then if you try another rom and dont like it, boot into cwm and restore your backup in 5 mins.

I have a nand backup of which I've been using, I've also made backup using mybackup so all covered, I've flashed several roms previously with no issues.

It could be that the zip download is corrupted. Try re-downloading and flash again.
If not, flash Siyah v4 kernel via recovery or odin then try flashing desired rom again.

What aborted? Flashing the newly downloaded rom or flashing Siyah via ODIN and then trying to flash rom again?
If you cant flash rom after you have Siyah kernel installed then as mentioned above you will need to try and restock via ODIN.
