Yes I’ve noticed the same with my Calais, it’s got me beat too

I just booked my Calais in to get the Alpine iLX-702D installed with reverse camera fitted at the same time

Different. Easiest way I check to see if a VE is a series I or II

Mine is shocking, especially since I raised the gain on the sub amp ha ha, must make time to try to eliminate the rattles and vibrations

yes, did fit that one but not the top ones either side of the OTR

Yeah you don’t NEED to get them, just depends on the look you are after, I prefer mine without the infill panels

Get a mate to drive it, much easier to abuse someone else’s car

Yes, could be handy info for someone else here, good job

Repco workshops don't have a very good name down this way..

when we had an Ultra-Tune in our town, they weren't very competent, maybe try somewhere that has a good rep

bit of a stretch but from this pic but does anyone know what brand and model these wheels might be? All I know is that they are: 20 inch, Fronts 8.5 Rears 10.5, A guy has them for sale, asked him the brand and he said he didn't know... cheers guys

Sorry OP for hijacking but so all the VE V8's have the 326mm front rotors like on my Calais V? I thought some had 321mm fronts

Got a feeling you should have got the same model engine out of another VE not a VZ

Yeah, cheers for the heads up

Remote tune on mine along with a lot of one on one discussions with Steve, made my car a different beast. I have 2 tunes I can switch between, 1 with AFM on as I do a lot of highway miles and 1 for performance, V8 mode only, have tweaked exhaust and I fitted VCM OTR myself as well

I'd be going to consumer affairs and get it documented, almost getting close to getting a lawyer involved too..

So is that 304 or 409? It seems like a very good price, do you mind me asking where you are getting that from?

Not sure how having a receipt is going to help you at all. I have a receipt for the pipes on my harley but that ain't going to do a thing lol

VCM OTR is only around $530 and easy to fit yourself too

A quick search shows that yes you would pay between 5 and 6k for the work you mentioned but I would be shopping around

Sounds a bit dear to me, sure there is no cam change as well in that quote?

keep us posted!!

Dig Options are about to test a dual zone set up now.... If I was in Melbourne I would be taking them up on this.... https://www.facebook.com/digoptions/photos/a.375779819165497.88903.107030619373753/1478978442178957/?type=3&theater

Got it ! Thanks for sharing this

Nice mate, are they 19"?

Save

My 2010 Calais has cats, centre muffler, 2 hotdog looking mufflers (1 on each pipe) then the rears (which I replaced with J-pipes)

I'm pretty happy with my J-Pipes, the volume is spot on, you can hear it now, sounds like a 6 litre should but.... there is a slight bit of drone between 1800 and 2200 rpm It's at its worst when on cruise going up and down gradual hills so I usually put it in manual (active select) and keep it...

Ad says it is a V6 in the specifications

its the trim panel between the speaker and the vents. yes I know I can go to Holden to ask, I guess that's what I'll end up doing, I just try to avoid the dealerships where possible and just thought someone here might have known... also like I said, it would be great if there was an online...

Or a good online parts finder.... Have good ones bookmarked for my bike and sons wrx, one for the Commodores would be handy

howdy, just wondering if anyone could help out with a part number for the trim indicated in the attached pic. Car is a 2010 series 1 Calais V also how does it remove? just get under it and pull or take off speaker cover first and then there are screws? Thanks in advance

close but no.... there are so many threads about lowering VE's, I checked through a lot of them again and found it in this thread: https://forums.justcommodores.com.au/threads/lowering-ve-ss.128985/ cheers

Hi guys, saw a hub centre to guard chart here the other day for working out spring selection for lowering but I didn't save it... tried looking again but there are so many threads on lowering... if someone knows exactly which thread it is in could they please put a link here or attach it here...

for sure mate, a full system will definitely happen down the track a bit

no they will be going on a sedan, a '10 Calais V 6.0L I just bought it but haven't taken possession of it yet, it's on its way down from QLD on transport atm..

I just bought Rapid's J pipes to see how they go...

Hey guys, 1st time poster, just researching axle back exhaust options for a VE 6.0l Calais, sounds like the rapid exhaust product is pretty popular but I see they have the original DG1 and the newer DG10. watched plenty of vids but most people just say they are DG pipes so don't really know...
