Bump. Still hasn't been resolved. Anyone?

So this is doing my head in. I have tried switching globes, relays and fuses but nothing has worked. All of my other lights are working apart from the front parkers, 1 is flickering and the other isn't coming on at all. Does anyone have any idea what i can do? One last shot at it myself before i...

Thanks guys I'm thinking its a valet switch

Wow i wish.

Yep gave that a go and they still aren't lighting up.

So i found a mysterious little red button on the steering column just above the fuses. The previous owner of the car (vz ss thunder 6.0) told me that he never figured out what it was for and it is driving me mad. Its a push button not a switch and very small. I push it and it seems nothing...

Hi guys. Just noticed yesterday that both of my front parkers suddenly stopped working. They are new led globes (yes i have tried turning them over) and my rear parkers and number plate lights are working. The fuse isn't blown. Could it be the relay? Anyone else had this issue?

Hey mate. I saw your post about your problem with your parkers not working. Did you ever solve this? I have the exact same issue at the moment with my vz ss thunder. The fuse is fine and tail light parkers are fine too. I could use your help please! Thanks :)

Thanks mate, appreciate the help.

Hi guys. So my father just bought a VF Calais Sportswagon with the Mylink system (satnav not included) Is there anyway to link Google maps from his samsung galaxy to Mylink so he can see/hear google maps through the system? What do you guys without satnav in the Mylink do for GPS?

Wow thanks mate. that's next on the list i think, bloody awesome.

Great idea with the styro boxes!

Dude please explain in complete detail how to do that. That's awesome and so handy to have if camping!

I have also heard of a cargo securing ratchet pole but can't get them anywhere here in SA that i can find. Does anyone know of what I'm talking about or where i can find one in SA?

I just bought my first ute. A 2006 VZ SS Thunder with a tub liner and hard lid. I'm new to this and would like to know how everyone has their tray set up and preferences. I have a tub liner with a couple of black 25L tubs secured with some hook elastic straps to chuck bags/small items in so they...

Thanks buddy. Yeah it was owned by a good friend, older guy who mainted it meticulously. That shot is in Victor Harbour, where i picked it up from.

Thanks bud

Hey thanks mate. I've been looking through your posts too for inspiration haha. Really want to do the gauges but they seem to be more trouble than they are worth. You in adelaide?

Hi mate. I saw in one of your posts that you had car mats made. Have you recieved them yet? What are they like? I am thinking of getting them from the same company for my vz ss thunder but want to make sure they aren't going to rip me off first. Thanks bud

Hi guys. Could someone please shop some simmons fr20s onto my black ss thunder?[

VZ SS Thunder - Album on Imgur Just bought this beauty. 2006 auto, upgrade model with PBR brake package and the L98 engine. 100k kms on the clock, leather interior and OTR Mafless tuned with 263rwkw. Very neat car, a dream to drive and a real head turner. Wouldn't mind a set of simmons fr20...

Ok thanks mate. Ill try and source a decent pair of gauges when i have the cash and I'll hit you up for a loom.

Hi mate. Just bought a vz ss thunder 6.0 with climate control. Want to put the binnacle gauges in And saw that you do the wiring looms. Would i need one? I have heard that they just plug into existing wiring if you have climate control?

This is my view exactly. I was very patient for the first 3 weeks but when you are waiting around for a call that never comes for a week it starts to get on your nerves. How hard is it to make a phone call and tell me that it wont be looked at for another 2 weeks? I would have taken it elsewhere...

Well they scheduled my car in for a certain date and kept telling me that they would get to it the next day. He offered the free tow and took it back. If that's not bad customer service then i don't know what you think is.

Hi all. Just a warning for anyone looking to use Willall racing to modify your car. I had my ls1 calais cammed with them a while ago and all was great, however i blew a head gasket (unrelated) and sent it back to them to diagnose/repair. They booked me in at their closest available date which...

I had a comp cam 220/220 cam only installed in my vx calais. Took me from 226rwkw to 274rwkw with an awesome difference in torque and my rpm range went from 5500 redline to 6500. Great little cam. Sounds nice too and cost 2800 supplied and fitted

Thanks mate, i haven't unfortunately. i might post some more photos though. Next will be diff gears, maybe next year.

Mate i am thrilled with it. I pull away from 6.2lt hsvs now. Definitely gets the heart racing!

220/220 112 0.581 from memory. If I'm wrong ill correct myself when i get home and check the cam specs

http://youtu.be/cEbQWPwinsM this is the new lumpier idle

No i actually gained a whole lot of torque. Being the smaller cam it adds more to torque than a larger cam. My 2nd gear used to redline at 5500 at about 130kph. Now its shifting at 6500 revs and at 160kph!

I researched cams all over the forums and came to the 220 being perfect for what I wanted in a daily driver. Willall agreed with me and have done them a hundred times.

I made 274rwkw with a mad increase in torque. Much lumpier idle than i was expecting from such a small cam. So happy with how it turned out.

So i have just dropped my 2000 VX Calais LS1 to Gareth at Willall Racing in S.A for a 220/220 comp cam and valve springs. When i bought the Calais it already had 2.5" xforce system with hi flow cats and extractors, OTR with maffless tune, shift kitted and LS1 edit. It made 226rwkw on the...

Hey guys. Today when i started up my Calais it climbed to 2000rpm on idle. Clunked when it went into D but then the idle went back to normal. Has been doing it all day. Any ideas on what it could be? It has a shift kit and mafless tune
