Worked it all out, all good peeps, as i said the box came out of a Vs caprice, a V6 caprice not a V8!, but it was one of the last made and got the VT auto. They electrically have either 12 or 13pins, both my original and this one have 13 pins so it drives perfectly fine. Being a V6 VS box, even...

It physically bolts up just fine too the ecotec, that sides all good, wiring all matches up (plugs straight in, not excess or not enough wiring), the bell housing is even notched correctly for the v6 exhaust to fit through, its just the rear-mount that doesn't line up and the cooler lines that...

Hi all I've blown the box in my VS Wagon v6. I've got a box that apparently came out of a VS Caprice but when i tried to fit (or more pulled my old box out) i found the new box has a full bolted on bell housing unlike my original one thats all one piece. Looking further into it, it seems like...

Hi all I've got a VY one tonner with a broken nolthane bush in the front (fitted before I bought it) and I want to return it back to a standard rubber bush mainly cause it's just a "car" (nothing fancy) and the extra NVH is a bit annoying, especially at speed. But I'm not sure how the standard...

Hey all So i picked up a VS Acclaim for nothing, got it rego'ed and everything all good that way, but im not sure what to do about the right height. The thing was slammed on its arse (IRS rear), lowered front and SSSL's in the rear. To get it driveable i grabbed some cheap stock height springs...

Hey mate, cheers for the info. Was hoping i could just throw in springs and fix that problem. Shaft seemed super simple to do so i'll get that fixed up (i looked and can get a new shaft pretty cheap, only a little more than buying replacement boots/etc so might go that way) Final issue is just...

G'day So i came into the possession of a VS Acclaim to use as a run about (Unregistered/needs a bluey), except its got a few minor things that need fixing i'm hoping i can get some help with. First up, its been dropped on its arse with SSSL kingsprings in the back (Its got IRS, was a p-platers...
