    Vz Calais V8

    Had some time today, so i ended up debadging. I kept the Calais badges on the side, removed the two V8 badges, Calais and v8 badge on the boot. Definitely gives it a cleaner look. At the moment my roof spoiler and hbd lip are getting painted and should be on next week.

    Vz Calais V8

    Dropped the car of today for headers and cats. Went with 1 3/4 X-Force 4-1 long headers and 100 cell hi flow cats, all 3 inch. So happy with it sounds insane. Next on the list is to replace the 2.5 inch mild steel cat back with a 3 inch stainless steel cat back with all the mufflers.

    Need some advice. I'm looking at getting x force 4-1 headers, what size should i go for 1 5/8 or 1 3/4? I plan on camming it in the future, its got a x force 2.5 inch cat back at the moment. Also what hi flow cats are best to get. Cheers

    Whining noise from diff

    Hey guys need some help, picked up my Vz Calais ls1 about 3 weeks ago. When i'm sitting on 85-90 there's a whining noise as soon as i take my foot of the accelerator its gone, i think its coming from the diff. Any ideas before i take it back to Holden's. Cheers
