I've just tried the exactly same downshift explained above at 24km into 1st gear without touching the accelerator and yes rev matched with no problems. Thank you, that's handy to know. Regards Mark VF SS Redline series2 W407

Interesting regarding the rev matching. Ok say eg. At 15km I could manually downshift from 2nd into 1st (without touching the accelerator) and it should rev match into 1st gear

Many thanks for the reply my question is can I downshift while in manual mode from second gear into First gear while the car's moving.

I was wondering about manual mode downshift into 1st gear. Vfssr2 auto In manual mode At what speed can I downshift into 1st gear?

2 .5 years and it's still working fine

Series 2 Redline W407 LS3, 5 year old and 68,600km, no issues at all... *touch wood* Awesome car

When I changed my cam vfr2 I also changed my harmonic balancer. I recommend the Powerbond OEM Replacement Balancer, ARP balancer bolt https://www.maceengineering.com.au/epages/mace.sf/en_AU/?ObjectPath=/Shops/mace/Products/PB850

Try it, But you need to shut the engine down when it's in neutral. Works every time for me

Automatics leave the shifter in neutral when shutting the engine off. The Radio, sunroof will stay on/open until you move the shifter into park. Like kleanphil said just be sure your head lights arent on so you don't flatten the battery.

Changed the oil Mobil 1. (5W 30) over to HPR-5 Penrite (5W 40) My tune shop used Mobil 1 when they changed the Cam. Anyway I immediately noticed how smooth the engine was running. Happy days. Also purchased a magnetic sump plug from Repco

I have a w407 Cammed Redline Auto. Installed it 10,000k ago. My w375 made 279kw and w407 makes 317kw (425hp) at the wheels. 38kw (50hp) 53Nm increase The cars awesome to drive with stock stall converter In Drive has no pushing at idle 650rpm. Your correct to say that the W407 cam would not...

Correct the Air filter can be washed out and re oiled but that takes time, So I will have the old one ready to go for the next service.

Changed my input connectors over to RCA and it's working perfectly. No line level converter needed. Nice cheap amp for $140. Thanks Stooge for your Help

That's a good idea. Will give it a go tomorrow. Thank you

I ended up installing a GMA3702 Pioneer Amplifier. It doesn't have a hi/Low input switch. Only x2 connection options RCA or speaker. I used the speaker option. Tried adjusting the gain control and that does help

Finished installing sub and amp, but I’m not sure what’s wrong. Low sound output. I’ve checked all connections and it’s wired correctly. Should I have used a line level converter?

I have a 2016 redline. hope this is what your after

At last I’ve picked up my new amp and sub today. Has anyone installed a GMA3702 amp? The Maximum input level /impedance. X2 input options. High level input: RCA 6.5v / 22k omhs or Low Level input: Speaker 26v / 16k omhs Also draws 15.5 amps max Going to splice into the subs L/R (OEM) speaker...

How does the Camaro pan compare to the OEM pan shift wise? Also did you purchase the wide mouth Trans Pan / Depth 3 5/16" from Pace Performance? https://paceperformance.com/i-84341...sion-pan-kit-with-wide-mouth-filter-6l80.html

Just wondering if this radiator hose is on correctly?

How many km on the clock? A good quality oil like Penrite could quite the lifters down. Try Enviro+ GF-5 Engine Oil 5W-30. https://powertorqueengines.com.au/

I’ve Just disconnected all the wiring harnesses from the stock amp and no sound. So My plan is to splice into the subs speaker wire and trigger wire before the amp. Leaving OEM amp in the system. Anyway if all the speaker wire runs to the stock amp. Then you should be able to run a second amp...

Bose Amplifier Connector Details Found this info from the link below. Pin #8 on X3 is what you'd tap for the "remote turn-on" trigger lead on your amplifier. Pins [12,4] and [13,5] (which is LeftRear +&- and RightRear +&-, respectively) would give you the cleanest signal for your amp straight...

Can I remove the original amp and then use the voltage wiring instead off running a new power cable from the battery?

Disconnecting the center speaker makes it stereo and it's only a 5 minute job.

Thanks stooge that's awesome info. I was thinking about something like this one from Autobarn https://www.autobarn.com.au/me24574

Thinking about upgrading my vfs2 amp and subs to a single 10 or 12 inch subwoofer in the boot. If I splice into the Speaker wires before the OEM amp. The signal is already at low level. I will need to convert my speaker wires over to RCA so I can connect to the new amp. Will this work? Add...

Try this mode it costs nothing. Unplug the center dash (3.35ohm) speaker and woo just like the VE made a huge difference . The Hands free telephone works through the front door speakers. Having left and right channels "stereo" - it's not a home theatre. Very Very Easy to do. Taking the center...

There's no fumes but a smallish fuel smell

I’m pretty happy with fuel consumption It’s Fun to drive. Using manual shift mode peels tires the first 2 gear shifts. Michelin PS4s

I haven't been on any Hwy's because of Covid-19 but around town in 80 zone at best 14.1 to 100km and up to 16.7 to 100km. So around 2 to 4ltrs more fuel per 100km on Bp 98

Every time I start her up, I have a smile from ear to ear. The cars awesome to drive. With a stock stall converter in Drive it doesn't push and idles @ 650rpm but you can tell it's cammed. Opens up nicely at around 3000 to 3500rpm.

Milo is correct to say Walkinshaw only upload / flash generic tunes. I purchased the W407 camshaft from Walkinshaw. But all work was completed by my local tune shop, including a custom tune. EternityDre On the power thing, dynos are all different just like your 300rwkw but the increased...

Yes the figures are correct a 53Nm and 50rwhp increase over the W375. There's heaps more right across the rev range in horsepower and torque. Happy days Also tuned the gearbox Adjusting Torque factor. Oncoming pressure presents and Base shift pressure.
