Hi mate, I would send to the States but I imagine you could buy them directly through GM a lot cheaper. There is only one fog light and it is used.

When i sold my VFII Redline, it had 76k on the clock and both rotors and pads were in very good order. It really depends on how hard you drive the car and use the brakes.

Yes I have, I just don’t always log in ;)

No sorry I don’t, I am just clearing out spares I bought for my commodores over the years

Is it the clip that goes over the seat rail?

Pictures now included in the post above for available items.

UPDATE - I have removed all the sold items from my post. I am having a shed clean out and no longer require the parts I have collected over the years. The commodore models listed are what I bought the parts for, they may fit other models. ITEM: 1 - VFII Chrome fender vents. These were removed...

Yes, it is a genuine model, but Holden have never offered a vehicle with an OTR. HSV did with the W427, but Holden never have.

And the boot

Here you go, rear doors

Thanks Smitty

So which plugs are we supposed to use for the LS3. If I look at the ac delco site, this is the plug they specify

Awesome job Fu, a real credit to you

Does the ODO look dodgy to anyone else

Pull the fuse instead

I used Remsa pads on my VZ Clubsport for a couple of track days and found them to be excellent. When I bedded (is that a word?) them in though, I literally had them smoking while I went through the process. They performed very well. I had an instructor at Philip Island drive me around the track...

Yep, awesome work Fu

Good work Mutabo, and you should give a shout out to the helpful Holden spares dealer. Good service needs to be recognised.

I bought a VY SS Series I Ute new, and can confirm the colour is genuine and original. There is no mention in the brochure of the colour of this surround though, it only lists the actual interior configuration.

nothing in the memory bank about that, sorry

Fu, if you bought an SS you had to option leather. The climate was part of the leather option. Although climate was only part of the package from VYII to VZ though. Climate was not available on VYI.

Super Coach Here is a link to the info from the workshop manual for VZ Nav. I havent read it so not sure if it will help. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/a7igw4ltvadp9hy/AACdRcSSntGSAJ1LI4GtnoySa?dl=0

make sure you bed in the new pads nice and hard Ron, these brakes need to be used or they will start squealing and drive you nuts.

Apologies all, I double checked some old photos, and my CalaisV did NOT have a perforated wheel.

Great story but so sad too. Holden could have exported this to the USA but GM Detroit would not allow it, something to do with taking sales away from their trucks i think. well it was around the time of the GFC too so that also would have thrown a spanned in the works. The Holden Ute is a great...

My VFI CalaisV had a perforated wheel. I didn’t option it, that’s just how it arrived. October 2013 build.

No, the tubs are a different length

if I remember correctly, when the most recent update was released (2017), you could pay $130 during a scheduled service or it was $189 if you took the car in just for the update. So, they might be trying to screw you out of mire cash!

Didn't the Craig Lowndes edition come out with Brembo front and rear. If I recall, it was VFI with the 6lt, but that shouldn’t affect the abs/esc.

How high did you rev it? How do you know it has no limiter?

I think the additional money for the unemployed is actually for the people who are currently employed with a mortgage to pay, who will become unemployed in the near future.

Toss the cathedral port heads for the later heads off a Holden 6lt L98, L76, L77 (the ones without DOD, I can’t remember now which they were)

Sounds perfectly normal to me

Ah yes, but that wasn’t the question. The master cylinder on the V8 Calais will be the same bore diameter as the HSV master that the brakes were engineered to be used with and there will not be any change required for brake bias or ABS.

You will be fine to just bolt them straight on without any other modifications.

Thanks for the input guys, I had the wheels off today for some detailing, and on closer inspection of the right hand side calipers, each one has a section no bigger than 5x5mm that is also delaminating. I agree with @Skylarking, it’s not good enough and I probably could Perdue it under the ACL...

yep, Imoenger is correct. I purchased EFI Live for my Redline. Can mess with tunes and did in to clear codes or view live data.

nice one Fu, made me LOL.

Don’t touch it, something will fail. That is terrible, some people have no mechanical respect.

Hi all, The clear coat on my VFII Redline (left hand side only) calipers is peeling. Holden in their wisdom believe this to be fair wear and tear given the heat cycles the calipers go through. I called BS on this as it should be both fronts failing then, not one front and one rear. Anyway...
