    I think the black rims offset every colour well and yours is no exception, looks mint.

    Clunk felt when I press the brake pedal...

    still got them installed, very happy. maybe i am happy because i still have great shocks and springs, and also any suspension part that wears i get replaced. i really gotta look at the Monaro eh, she's getting a bit rough, but that's the cruddy springs/shock combo (king.monroe of course) the...

    Headlight Cover Replacement

    they will also need to remove and replace the bumper cover too afaik. Genuine headlamps are closer to $600, aftermarket is sitting around the $300 mark.

    Headlight Cover Replacement

    the damage you have might be just not quite enough for an insurance claim, however they are expensive and then the labour on top and any other minor damage would probably tip it over the edge.

    ABS issues

    Did you match the module to the original or just randomly try them? Bear in mind if they are used they may also be faulty!

    2nd fuel pump gone in a month (P0231)

    i'm at the point where i am happy for a new loom and pump, but if it was to fail again i'd get an access cover made i think. My car IS nearly 10yo at this point so it's done ok.

    2nd fuel pump gone in a month (P0231)

    turns out it wasn't ready, this arvo hopefully still in bits all over the place. that said he's had this issue before and showed me another loom - exact same pin/issue.

    Rear Brake upgrade to 2014 SSV Redline Series 1

    this is all well and good but OP has a S1 Redline, no benefits there due to all this torquey torque business.

    2nd fuel pump gone in a month (P0231)

    dunno he's doing both. i figure that's for the best myself considering how much of a mission it is to get it all out. either way I have requested all parts back so yeah.

    2nd fuel pump gone in a month (P0231)

    yeah i figured just get a loom to get it back on the road and keep the old one and maybe repair it for a spare. supposedly under $100 for the loom and whatever for the pump.

    2nd fuel pump gone in a month (P0231)

    good news, he's gotten a pump and new wiring loom looks like it will get sorted this arvo, i requested the old parts. Might have a look see at what i can see. I figure that loom can potentially be re-used he said that the burn is just like sooty or something so it'd clean off.

    VX Petrol flap question

    you've quoted a 12 year old post so that poster may not respond, i have personally bought a new filler flap for a VX - they are all ABS plastic, you can buy painted or unpainted. the op didn't mention it but i would say his alignment was just due to fitment which can be fiddly. They all come...

    I haven't owned the car from new, but they were better than the ones that were on it, however they were not new of course.

    New Tyres Recommendation

    The best thing for me with the PS4 is that as they wear the performance doesn't seem to degrade which is more than i can say for a lot of tyres i've had over the years.

    Rear Brake upgrade to 2014 SSV Redline Series 1

    they saved the 6 piston for the big kahuna, the W1.

    Rear Brake upgrade to 2014 SSV Redline Series 1

    there's a certain point where the brake is at a level that's acceptable adding the branding is a nice bonus.

    New Tyres Recommendation

    i can't rotate so can't comment, no idea what the wear is like tbh but they've remained nice and sticky.

    New Tyres Recommendation

    I had Kuhmo's a few years back and tbh I wouldn't go back they were popular at the time due to price and then that changed and they were no longer bang for buck anymore. Currently on PS4S, love them to bits. I have no hesitation recommending them.

    car mag tests aren't worth the paper they are written on, half the time they do it with different drivers and stopwatches like cavemen.

    Rechargeable Batteries - what are you using/recommend
