havent been on here for ages. but the utes been off the road for over a year now. im slowly doing things to it when i can be bothered. i'll keep you's up to date when i'v got it back on the road.

nice build mate.

Aggghhh c**t of a job.... Took me two weeks to do mine. Everytime i tried i'd fail and crack the sh*ts and go down the pub and leave it for another days problem to solve. But as said above, Turn the steering shaft till you can undo the bolt that holds it together. Also i found i undone my...

try some other site bro, like: Australian LS1 and Holden Forums Chevy | Camaro | Firebird Reviews, Performance Parts, Modifications - LS1Tech.com LS1tech is a USA site, but them mericans know a thing or two about these LS motors. learnt alot of that site.

you'll need to change the front bumper and bonnet for the VZ lights to fit. Everything will bolt right in as its the same body car underneath everything.

nice bro, looks like your going to look after this ute. hope when your finished it looks fat!

wheels suit it so well mate.

i didnt have a problem with installing the PWR Radiator and the hoses went on with abit of force but not overly tight.

holy heck! i have forgotten about this place... i ended up getting the drivers seat in. bought a full genuine maloo kit of ebay, was out of pocket 7K, lowered it on the rear abit, done a sh*t load of skids, broke both engine mounts and gear box mounts (just to much torque hey), smashed and...

havnt been on here much... i havnt had the time to take it back for a retune guys. just been upgrading a few things. first was the brakes. upgraded to these! Harrop performance front and rear. i would of like to gona bigger but i still want to run skid tires on the back, so i can still run...

did it start doing it after yo fiited the new leads/plugs? mine use to do the same. surging and back fire. hooked the computer up and came up as a missfire on #2.. checked the lead on #2... it wasnt pushed on all the way. i'd check all the leads are clipped on properly.

my car doesnt over heat, it just get very warm under there during the day time. (its more of a bandaid for piece of mind...) but thanks anyway.

looks clean mate.

face plam to self.... tell me something i didnt know mate. i have done other things to help with it mate, but i dont come on here and share my ride anymore becuase of f**k wits like yourself that ruin JC.

LOL to many douch bags on here.... no wonder i come here once a month. the main reason wasnt for looks mate, i live out int he sticks in the hot summer air. the main reason was to get more air into the engine bay!

that sounds like a fuel presure problem. im not sure if the standard fuel system has an check valve, but on my worked V8 does the samething, only cuase fuel presure in the lines drop over night and gets air in there. it turns over after a few cranks in the moirining and runs rough whiles theres...

i just bought some after seeing this. what sort of bulb does the projectors use? i wanna get an H.I.D kit in time when my new head lights arrive. this is the ones i bought too. eBay Australia: Buy new & used fashion, electronics & home d

if he decided to go down the path, i could of guided him in the right direction.

and your point is what? no need to post in here mate if you dont have anything to say....

i'd like to see how this RPM heavy duty (piss weak) clutch goes. i'd fry it in no time in my car. 1K more and you could have a clutch that will last alot longer in your car.

if you read that thread properly... you would of seen after some time of bedding in it smoothed out. i just opened my mouth to early and complained about the bedding in bit. its perfect now. you can run what ever clutch you like mate, in my mind the Z is the best. it realy teaches you how to...

pitty what he said he very true. cant handle a Z grip... may as well sell the car and buy a Getz. also its not what rating power the clutch will hanlde that makes it last longer.... its the driver.....

first time i have read a neg comment about Tex..... real men drive Z grip clutches.... but if you want stock feel. get the X grip. NPC do a good kit too. i would use Tex or NPC. i run a single Tex Z grip and its holding up good with 500hp going through it.

haha thats my car, its an old chev badge mate. here have a look here, did a short write up as a few people asked me how i did it. http://forums.justcommodores.com.au/vy-holden-commodore-2002-2004/159280-blank-grill.html

so which one are you going to go? cant have both on one gearbox LOL Future Mods: Racing Ripshifter, Short shifter

or you could look up ASR audio!

4 into 1's in my book

LS3 conversion! or start saving up for a stroker/turbo setup!

yes it sure has, has about 4xxxkms now. but im gona change a few things before i go back. upgrade too 1 7/8 extractors and 100cell cats. also change the intake setup (yet again:P)

i still havnt goten around to painting mine black... but heres a picture for proof the glue is still holding. i'v hit a bird once and didnt even do anything to the glue. im pretty happy seams it only cost me $23.00 to make!

Bump, been having a few people ask how i did mine. so mite do a proper write up soon.

thanks mate. the grill was realy easy to do, it use to be an chev badge but im sure it could be done with an Holden one too. heres a short write up i did in another thread while back. http://forums.justcommodores.com.au/vy-holden-commodore-2002-2004/159280-blank-grill.html

nice and clean mate. i like it

nice mate, i too have the same model. ute looks good mate

standard flywheels are pretty thin... when you buy an aftermarket clutch, it comes with a flywheel. i'd get an heavy duty clutch kit bro! dont waste time on a standard crap...

im not realy sure. if you are just going to have a exhuast and cam, the standard clutch will hold out. but if it were me, i'd stick a heavyer clutch in. single plate will do the job fine and still have the stock pedal feel.

you would be better of just getting a single plate heavy clutch. something on the lines of NPC or the Tex X they sholud be around the 1200 mark from memory. but if you plan to do some work down the track, i would think twice about what sort of clutch you put in it now.
