Ah Ha! I stand educated.
I have noticed that my number of posts has been stuck at 300 for some time now, even though I have posted a fair number of times since reaching...
Same Story! I have had a legitimate copy of Win XP rejected for re-activation. Rang them up and they gave me the necessary key. Later found...
This afternoon, one of my sons went to Wollongong City Beach. Got back to his car to find someone had damaged the left rear of his car (VSII)....
Wrong Section? After reading the above and a few other comments, I think that this thread should be moved to Jokes/Humour.
Should we re-title this thread? Well, I came back to this thread after a day or so to find it full of "conspiracy theories". I never cease to be...
Bad guy, but? I consider that Saddam was a bad guy of the worst kind, but I am not comfortable with capital punishment. I wish the Iraqi...
Check the leads. I agree. It is more likely that the miss was initially caused by the leads, and it is possible that there were further damaged...
Yes it is! The following link gives the official Holden position on E10 (10% ethanol)....
Hi, I am about to fit a three window cluster to my VYII. When I talk to the service department at the local Holden Dealers about a Tech2...
Extra Wire? Did you connect the extra wire required for the fuel flow? This wire is additional to those than come with the fourth connector?
Fuel Tank Sizes With the VS, Holden revised the fuel tank quantities from 63.6L (14 gallons) and 80L to 59 and 73. My understanding was that...
Not Quite Convinced Yet! I am probably getting splinters sitting on the fence on this one. My final judgement will be based on the outcomes I...
Canadian State? Thought it was in Canada?
Yep, both 152KW. All the VY V6 plants produce 152KW.
VYII Manual V6 I just drove from Penrith to Brisbane and back over the weekend in my manual V6. I used the cruise control almost always. Into...
Part Throttle Response, not Torque! Having seen the torque graph comparison between the Buick and Ecotech V6's, the Ecotech has more torque...
Brake Switch? Hi, I am assuming that your car is an auto. Occasionally when I play around under my dash with the wires, my cruise control...
Default Settings The default calibration settings are 625 for distance, 625 for fuel flow and +0.00 for fuel quantity. These are generally...
Road test Update Since this thread has been re-opened, I thought that I would add the Motor acceleration figures for a VS Manual versus the XR6...
Caution. There is a real gotcha relating to the fitting of long range fuel tanks. As stated above, it is necessary to get the tank and the...
Old Thread. Air Strike provided the following infomation on another thread last year. Found a old notepad file on my comp with the info I was...
Surprised! I am surprised by the claim that VR injectors are better than later ones. Somewhere along the track, they were changed to what I...
All that needs to be said! In a nutshell. The purpose of "political correctness" is to take away the right to freedom of speech on certain...
Patch Harness Part Number Back in May, I had promised a Holden Part Number for a patch harness that would allow a Level 3 Cluster to be...
Road Test I have a road test of the VS V6 Manual for the equivalent F**d in 1996. I think that it was Motor magazine. The VS lead the way...
Yes it is, but! You could swap to a Level 2 VR/VS cluster by a straight swap, to get a tacho. The swap to a Level 3 is a bit more. You will...
Three Window Cluster Issues Hi, There are a number of issues involved here as far as I know. Firstly, the big issue is getting the right...
Need wiring patch harness and trip computer buttons. Hi, You will need the trip computer buttons (anywhere from $20 to just over $40), and a...
Cluster problem. The temp gauge should work as normal. There must be something wrong with the cluster or the green circuit board at the back of...
Getrags from VSII on I think. I have a VSII manual. It has the Getrag box. I have driven both the T5 and Getrag, and consider the Getrag the...
A Long Long Time ago! When I was much younger, I bought a F**d because my wife could not get the Holden we test drove into second gear. Anyhow...
Try Pressing Unlock Button Again. When my key was running down, I had this problem. Was always able to get started by pushing the "Unlock...
Run out of ideas! I've used up all my ideas. Tacho probably just requires a V6 tacho or modification of the resistors. Both L3 speedos...
Should Not Be Problem. VR/VS looms and clusters are interchangable I believe. That won't be a problem. How much of the new loom are you...
Wiring Issue? Noted your last comments. I have done this mod to my 1997 VSII, though with a V6 220 KPH cluster. I have had no troubles with...
V8 versus V6 Issues Hi, Further to my previous, a V8 tacho can be adjusted to a V6 by making a few adjustments to resistors. If you want, I...
More info needed. The speedo and tacho should work with the standard wiring. The additional wiring is just needed to get the trip computer up...
Not everyone agrees with "peak oil" theory. http://www.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/story/0,22049,20390685-5001028,00.html Interesting read.
