    Vic rego Question

    Yeah I plan to have the renewal paid so I don't have to pay all the 're-onroad-registration' costs associated with buying a car without plates... It's just so I can pay the stamp duty, transfer fees and RWC costs all shortly after I pay the renewal... because I don't have the funds at the...

    Vic rego Question

    (VIC) If I pay rego renewal on a car that was given to me recently, when I can afford insurance and the RWC to transfer it to my name, will I forfeit the any of the rego I paid in her name? The pricks at work didn't pay me and I'm waiting on the fat lump sum to fund my RWC. The plan is to...

    8 inch subwoofers

    Rockford Fosgate have a really shmick 8" range in the 'Punch' series. Apparently Jaycar has some fair 8's too... but I'll leave a question-mark here.

    Subs draining TOO much power...

    With that gear you could calculate the load and then opt for a 1-2(circa) farad capacitor. Or run dual batteries with relay'd isolators off the ignition barrel. Ensure everything is fused individually too to be safe :)

    VN/VP/VQ/VG ute specs

    Solid is better for towing and having loads anyway I guess... I want to put bikes in the back and do some towing too. The one with the airbag wins then... its good to be safe.

    VN/VP/VQ/VG ute specs

    So in the end, is it better to pay a couple of grand more to get a VS? It's probably better with the ecotec and drivers airbag. And don't the vs utes have IRS, unlike a vn's live? mmmmmmm decisions:(

    6" Splits Alpne Type R??

    And make sure you get your amps and impedance all sorted out, otherwise you could wreck some new speakers via DC Clipping. Ask some people with the know-how to make sure you avoid under powering your speakers; (subs, splits etc)

    VN/VP/VQ/VG ute specs

    Just curious because I could get a front cut for under a grand! Only one thing stopping me from buying one; the inconsistent prices of them. What is a vn/vp/vq/vq buick on around 200,000kms doing at over the $4500 mark? :( Some VS utes with similar kilometers and in good condition go for...

    VN/VP/VQ/VG ute specs

    Do the utes run the same wheel base and chassis as the statemans? What are the major differences between the sedans/wagons to the utes? They run nearly identical setup? I'm thinking of buying one and when looking around, want to get a fair idea of what I can replace off a vn/vp if need be...

    NEVER use online virus software of any sort. They download spyware to your computer! Only use the stuff as an active program eg. Trend-Micro, Norton, AVG etc. If you're running 2 hard drives, always write important files to the drive not running your operating system (XP). That way if you do...
