My Vy Clubsport

My car has 315mm rear brakes, you can get a 16 inch rim over them, I have seen it on a mates clubby. You just have to have the right off set.

As above. Your car has the same brakes as mine, unless you have aftermarket brakes? , so 16's do fit. It has been covered many times on other forums.

Below is the spec list off the HSV website for a VY II Senator Signature

BRAKES

Anti Lock Braking System (ABS) Standard
Premium Braking System: 343 x 32 mm ventilated and cross drilled front discs, 315 x 18mm ventilated and cross drilled rear discs, Four piston HSV embossed front and rear callipers in HRT red, Silver finish front and rear hubs

Below is for a VY II Clubby

BRAKES
Anti Lock Braking System (ABS)
Performance Braking System: | 330 x 32mm ventilated and grooved front discs, HSV embossed front callipers in HRT red, 315 x 18mm ventilated and grooved rear discs

So your car has larger front brakes but the same rears. Your premium package is the same as an R8.

So I am sorry but 16's will fit.

So your telling me I do not know my own cars brakes...it has as per replacement parts 330mm REARS and 343mm FRONTS.

If you would like i could find some time to show you that a 17 inch wheel WILL NOT FIT. Obviously these were upgraded at some stage, didnt realise stock they were 343/315. So my apoligies there.

Let me know if you want this thread cleaned up

Looks like we were both right!

I have done a few mods recently. The car now has a Sureflo 3.5 inch single, a catch can, and a new OTR. The OTR has a slot at the front where you can remove the cover and filter for the drags, and easy cleaning of the filter. I also relocated the IAT sensor to the scoop of the OTR, behind the front bar.

Catch Can install


New OTR

Ay mate, im pretty sure you have that catch can set up wrong.

Should be set up like this:



Depending on what is the inlet and outlet on the catch can, but the yellow line should come from the valley cover into the inlet on the catch can and the red line from the outlet into the manifold.

I had it setup that way, but was told it isn't correct on a VY II as they have a filtered section that the U shape pipe runs too. So it would just be double filtering. They are supposed to stop oil vapour for the rockers getting into the throttle body, if I did it that way the vapour would still get in. Cheers.

Had my exhaust modded to be a Sureflo 3.5 Loud system. I went to Sureflo and they replace the middle muffler with a hotdog. It now sounds insane! Click on the video below.

My car is going in for a cam on Monday!

It's getting:

220/220 @ 112 LSA with .581 lift Comp Cam with XER lobes.
High quality Double Valve Springs including Titanium Retainers, Viton valve seals.
Moly Pushrods
25% Underdriven Harmonic Balancer
Full Custom Tune

It's a pretty mild cam, but the car is a daily driver, and I have seen cars with this cam make over 280rwkw and run low 12's in full street trim. I can't wait to get it fitted!
