    Our MY15 SV6 Storm Sportwagon

    Hey mate, well i have coilovers, so i can lower it or raise it to whatever height i want. They are pedders ones and cost $2400 fitted. However my previous 2 commodores were lowered about 30-40mm and achieved a pretty similar look. Lowering with springs only should be about $700

    MY16 Jungle Green SSV Redline

    I had to get the roof of my prussian steel wagon re-sprayed under warranty as i had the exact same issue as shown in the photo you attached. I was told at the time that i wasnt the first one to come in with the same problem also. Must be a prussian steel problem...

Ive probably only used the wool mitt for a hand wash like 5 times in a year, the rest of the time i just foam and rinse with the gernie. comes up like new every time..... Yeah im actually about to take mine back for a detail soon too, just a bit of a...

    White VFII SS-V Wagon

    ive got my wagon done with opticoat also. Been about a year now and is still good... the water doesnt bead off quite as well as when i first had it done, which isnt a huge deal.... BUT the best thing is i Still dont have a single swirl mark or hairline spiderwebbing anywhere on the car. Still...

    VF2 Redline Ute after market wheels

    annnnnnd theres only about another 10,000 people out there running the same rims. Yes i do agree they look good, but simply looking good isnt the whole story. Individuality is a rare commodity these days. And not sure what your obsession with forged is either.... not the be all and end all. Not...

    VF2 Redline Ute after market wheels

    Love your work panhead! (And your Ute ).... Sure saved me a lot of time writing. And yeah, head over to my "show off your ride" page OP and there's more photos on there. And also more photos in the vfs1 gallery on the vossen website. And just so you know, I am running VF clubby AP RACING brakes...

    Pedders XA Coilovers Yes/No

    Oh yeah I did hear about all he new VFS wheels. Checked the vossen website last night and wasn't on there... Looks shmick man! Get some photos up when u get em

    Pedders XA Coilovers Yes/No

    Im wondering what ones you mean too. Because VSF isn't a vossen name. Its VFS, and there is only VFS1 and VFS2 (I Have Silver VFS1's on my wagon).... Or do you mean VPS-305?? or CV5??
  13. waynebatt

    Pedders XA Coilovers Yes/No

    I have them on my VF SV6 wagon. Installed in July about two weeks after buying the car from new. I bloody love em. Great ride and handling. Obviously they're firmer than stock. But still quite comfortable. And the beauty is you can adjust the damper rates and what not. I had a tinker with...

    VF after market rim offsets

    Looks good man! With the guard rolling you're already getting done they'll be fine. 5mm less poke than mine, so shouldn't have any dramas.. Would have to be real low to have any issues..

    VF after market rim offsets

    I've got vossen vfs1's from America. If u wanna see the fitment with those offsets you can take a look on my "show off your ride" thread in the VF section.... And as the ever inspiring aaronm has mentioned, beware of "cheap" cast rims. Expensive, well made, high quality ones are fine...

    VF after market rim offsets

    If you're getting the guards rolled then there shouldn't be too many dramas really... I've got 20x9 +35 fronts and 20x10 +42 rears. Once I rolled the guards I haven't had any problems.... Hsv rears are 20x9.5 +57 hence not needing guards rolled...

    VF with Opti-coat +

    $1650 is absurd... Go elsewhere. For a brand new car it should be about $600-$650

    20x10 in wheels on VF SSV ute

    I have 20x9 +35 fronts and 20x10 +42 on the rears... I had to roll my guards on the rears due to scrubbing... The fronts are perfect though. I've got the 255 front and 275 rear continentals and they're not stretched at all. Looks good... Rolling the rear guards isn't a big deal. Very easy job...

    VF tyre load rating & 20" wheels

    That's a placard off of a gen f hsv. NOT the 20" commodore option... 245/35R20 95Y is the Bridgestone POTENZA fitted to the commodore when 20" option is selected. Placard is changed to suit also... Not sure if there is a staggered 20" option though. If so it would be the 275/30R20 97Y...

    Paddle Shift

    When I picked my car up last July the paddles didn't work... Went back and it turned out the software update to make them work on the sv6 models hadn't been released yet as they'd only just started allowing it as an option... They called me two weeks later and I dropped it in for the update...

    Paddle Shift

    Sorry yes that's what I was getting at. I thought you were enquiring if it was factory fitted or not... But yes as brad says, you can fit after delivery... Should be about $1000 to do through holden. It's a great upgrade, looks better too as you get the flat bottom sports wheel :)

    Yeah it's a dealer fitted item before delivery...

    VF tyre load rating & 20" wheels

    The hsv 275 rear contis are rated 102, so it's only the fronts that are the issue really. I have heard there is a company doing them... Don't know how good they are though...

    Wheel shopping

    get over it dude... I already edited the post from the original after reading it sober... I'll go edit it again to keep u happy. And in regards to my car ONLY being a 6.. What does that matter? What does that have to do with this guys thread or my comment? I'd rather a customised 6 that turns...

    What deal did you get for your vf series 2????

    It is a structural issue... Depends if they're gonna add some strengthening to it or not as to whether it will be fine or not.... I know of 3 people now who have hit a kerb or similar in their Gen f sedans with sunroofs... All 3 have twisted the body and creased the roof on all 4 corners of the...

    Our MY15 SV6 Storm Sportwagon

    Maybe we could sell both out sets of wheels and buy 3/4 of a set of forged? Then we just take turns using the forged goodness on our cars.... If SUPERSTAR DJ gets in on it too maybe we can get a full set? How's 1 month at a time each for a total of 4 months of the year each sound? I mean...

    What deal did you get for your vf series 2????

    I think he's trying to sell it with the number plate for a very large premium.... What an absolute idiot. Beyond ridiculous!... Not that special a plate...

    Just look at a photo of an sv6. They've got black instead of silver. Much better IMO...

    Shiny Dash Bits

    You can buy the blacked out kit I'm pretty sure.... Either that or take yours out and spray em. Plenty of people have done it. Not too hard a job if you got a few tools from what I've seen...
