    Anyone driven past any road works or similar and seen it change? I was kinda assuming preloaded maps but would be cool if it could see the signs. Im also assuming these are updated via Holden services. This question is kinda directed to people with VE or > out of warranty. Do you have to...

    Please excuse my ignorance and lack of research aka laziness, but how exactly does the computer know what the speed limit is? Can it see the signs or does it know from maps+gps or what? Just interested is all.

    I would like to think we go to other countries selflessly. Even when Aus helped East Timor the gov may have had one eye on the off shore gas fields.

    Bilstein Shock Absorbers

    Sounds like the B8s might be the ones for you then if you plan on going lower in the future. I got mine through gsl almost 2yrs ago and fronts were $735 inc gst, rears $512. Rather steep but they do a very good job with the sl kings. Only prob ive had was the dust boot splitting, it seems kinda...

    This man talks sense, unlike me, i use the two grunt method. One grunt while in the air, one on the ground. Prefer electric coz of portability. Do it by hand you will get a feel for it.

I wouldve had a mid sized rwd or awd V6 daily like that in a heartbeat, chuck a snail or two at it for shits and giggles and away you go. Fwd 4cyl cruize?

    2003 Vy suspension help please :)

    Yes it is. Bouncing over the road is not good. Do you have lowered springs? What type of monroe shocks did you have installed? Perhaps the spring rate is too high for the shocks. Bushes tend to squeak not grind but the swaybar D bushes are a common culprit for this. Lube them and see what...

    Top strut bushes

    I should have said the height of the cup was different then. Assuming its on top maybe it sits too proud of the strut tower for the retaining plate to be bolted down properly.

    Top strut bushes

    The only other thing i could think of was if the spring hats were on the wrong side of the car. Not sure if that could cause your problem though. The hole in them is offset slightly. It should be inboard.

    Top strut bushes

    Lying in bed this morning getting over the flu and reading this thread again I remembered I had some new unopened nolathane strut top bushes/bearings in the shed and I also kept the originals from when I did my suspension.

    Is the cup washer under the top plate concave side up? So that the nut sits inside it.

    Is an aftermarket alarm system worth it?

    Thats what i do. Easy to bypass but only you know where you cut the wires to what and where the switch is. Cheap too.
