Just don't remove the rear holden badge(the one on the boot) unless you have a direct replacement. the earlier ones on VE's apparently have 2 holes underneath it. Don't quote me.

Yes much the same (volume/sound) as without the muffler on at all, however not quite as loud and much less vibration as the exhaust isn't pointed directly at your car. I personally have cut off dump pipes, I'd assume it would sound much like the straight pipes. As far as the drone you just have...

I personally lowroozer, i would search outside the column for visible loose objects such as the striker(as previously mentioned) and go from there, than carefully take the trim apart and check out that seatbelt roller, they are rather heavy and can sound like a "knock" when loose, i recently had...

Just simply tighten the striker bolt into position.

It is common yes, i had my timing chains replaced under warranty however i left my engine light on for about 30,000k's like it, i forget what error code# it pulled but it was something like "cas/timing belt" i finally got them done and still nothing like the symptoms described. [edit; Cost me...

I just had a long and detailed reply to your thread however i had to refresh and well it's gone lol. In short, i can't see how the front mounts are doing that, it's possible that your rear is a 1 off manufacturing fault some come from the supplier to holden already damaged. So put a bit of...

At least you aren't saving for some bullshit obscene car so wont take years lol... Yes it's a mechanic possy, yea it will suck for a while doing services and **** but worth it in the long run, plenty of work for people with 2+ year apprentice paperwork but getting anything is bullshit, this...

If you want to know about the engine only, and apart from the obvious vin plate... Search around the front of the heads and see if it's the twin cam heads (4 cam total) you will see a very distinct censor and count 4 for high output or 2 for the standard. The difference between the standard and...

As a tip, if you get an amp with "high level input" a tip i suggest is to gain a left and right signal, this helps with your L - R fade . I gained my signals from my front center speaker than dis-connected it. UFO, glad you let him know the batt is in the boot. LOL.

Hey man whats up how is everything going? Did you end up getting another "man" car? I got good and bad news today, start off with the bad, finally got written evidence that vicky got all of my tax and i still have to pay the ####ing accountant woo... Good news is I hopefully start an...

Secretly De-badge it and say you chased a guy down the street last night after you seen the perpetrator standing suspiciously at the rear of the car.

I seen this happen on an underground video i own, the American test drove a mid 90's camaro, absolutely flogged the **** out of it for about 20mins. However in this case it was a dealership he was test driving it from. The guy took it back with bashed in wheels, rubber sprayed all up the rear...

Turtlewax also sells a similar product for $25, at first i had no faith in the product. But i was simply amazed, it worked very well on badly yellowing VT headlights.

Silver on black would look great, however the black on white slimline ones(normal ones) would also look nice. Why not photo-shop some pics and have a look?

Wow K-man! Very nice work, defiantly sticky worthy.

(PMLF) Performance Mode Lift Foot. For the record. *Only in sports mode* "This feature is activated automatically when sports oriented driving is detected, based on cornering and on/off throttle application. PMLF allows the transmission to hold the currant gear instead of upshifting when...

I fail to see how a low fuel tank can effect anything to do with the g/box to be honest.

Hey guys, i was just after some help on some damage to VT rear quarters. My brother in-law had put a retread on and set out to pop some tires, the glue heated and you can tell where this is going.... Here is the damage, there is tiny fine wire scratches and chips to bare metal on his rear...

DJRandom/Astroham, I've made myself up a set of straight pipes for my VE SV6 they sound a little quieter than without the mufflers on at all. Much less vibration through the car as the pipes aren't shooting straight at the car. No extra money spent. Imho perfect sound. Before you add the...

Cheers troy, i had a think about it. It seems that it'd be best to lower it than put it all back together and start from scratch so everything is back where it should be before i start. I was told by Red Ranger a bloke i used to work with actually that it's probably a days work. Either way i...

For your 2nd question, if it's under warranty just take it back to Holden again. (i had 2 rear passenger hubs replaced within 2 weeks ><. If your not worried about warranty, try searching an under-drive pulley kit. Also your speed alert problem, mine is also the same as cruzer. Good luck.

I've had the Nolathane set of bushes sitting around my garage for about 6 months, I have been putting it off and off for ages. Having a steep driveway isn't helping :( anyone done it themselves and time estimates? If it helps i plan on lowering my SV6 myself so is it worth waiting untill i do...

sv6 with chev badges is just failed lol.... Heres how i did it on a budget. Firstly i sourced a clubsport set of rear mufflers for spares, than chopped the stock ones up just after the bend and before the actual muffler. Now I've got a straight pipe and a tip the rear and it sounds pretty...

Have you tried a quick after market search? eg; Ebay/google? Imho it would be a great addition.

It happens in Mine also. Nothing a good overnight charge of the ipod/phone wont sort out if you are planning a decent drive.

My late 2008 (first rego in March 2009) had the stretched timing chain, However i was luckey enough to get it under warranty. Just for the record.

WH, WK, WL Statesman are imho the worst lookers. Also evan though i own a VE sv the omega rear end is terrible.

this has changed a lot...

I've had a few vn's in my time (s1 & s2 autos & manual's) & in mech good order they dont have a problem beeng roughness, Most of the guys up there ^^^ know what you mean & i know too as i have dh mates lol, But another suggestion is...He has a spark lead off which does cause viberations &...

'P.S. Give your mate an uppercut !!! " lol rhino.... sKaLpa, Maybe get a gregorys on hand?...hope you sort it out :p

Sounds alot like a problem i had a few years back, Whil i posted on here & thnx guys for the tips none worked.....But i took to auto elecy & it turned out it was the volt regulator. I hope this helps...Its the little black thing on the back of the alternator :)

Well, You have 2 great cars & a big poblem.... Imo id keep the clubby as its hard to get a hold of nowadays, But....The real question is weather you like the newer style commo's or older style?...Its realy a personal choice.

Hmm....Rather intresting that you say that accualy, The last time i heard of a retread as a "burnout" tyre it tore a hole straight through my friends tubs & into his boot.:cry: :rip: Although, I agree withthe tyre price :thumbsup:

hmm...... what about the water shortage?, would salt water or re-cycled water work?, what about pure & im-pure water? just random thaughts...........
