    What mods need to be done put a 6l90e into a Vf

    Craig’s automatics in Sydney can build your existing auto to handle well over 1000kw Will cost less and be stronger. Why bother changing to the 6l90e?

    HSV seats where to buy??

    There are a few places doing new seats with GTS foams. They use your own frames and bags. I’ve seen some on eBay for as low as $2500 inc door cards. Pick your style, your colours and they can embroider what ever you want in the headrests.

    Bit the bullet on a brand spankers HSV!

    SOAG is the best colour for a HSV. It's blends well with the Matt black plastic pieces. Nice work mate

    VF SS Spolier.

    Check eBay and gumtree. Worse case scenario you can get a bootlid cheap and get it sprayed. That's what I did.

    VF SS Spolier.

    Just did it the opposite way. You'll need a complete bootlid. Spring sin the hinges is different as well. I bought the entire bootlid and fitted it. If your car is slipstream blue.....I have. A complete bootlid with lip spoiler

    Brake lights in boot lid

    So would a twin element bulb fix the issue? Or I should their wiring involved? HSV guys are saying theirs light up in the boot when braking. But I've just installed a HSV bootlid and the wiring harnesses are identical

    Wanted boot lid with R8 spoiler

    im looking to change my boot lid to one with an R8 spoiler. I understand that I need the entire boot as my lip spoiler boot has too many holes. I've tried eBay and gumtree but slim pickings. Any other suggestions on where to pick one up? Wondering if Holden will have a parts sale after October.

    SSV Redline creaking in rear of cabin on driveways...

    When I turn right hard or the car twists entering a driveway but turning right, I get a light clunk from what sounds like inside the roof liner behind the sunroof. Holden say it's the roof lining and they'll replace it. Sounds like a thick lose wire hitting the metal of the roof

    Cam vs Supercharger or other

    I wouldn't say a supercharger gives you worse fuel economy. My supercharged Redline gets 700kms to a tank on highway Sits mainly on 9-10/100km efficiency at 110km/h cruising But as it's been said.......we don't buy these cars for fuel efficiency

    6l80e auto pan upgrade to deep dish

    Yeah I'm worried about scraping issues as I've lowered my Redline 25mm all round. Although my 3" stainless system already sits low.

    6l80e auto pan upgrade to deep dish

    was wondering if anyone has done the auto pan upgrade to a Canario deep dish wide mouth filter unit on their 6l80e VF auto? Want to know what sort of cost is involved, and how much lower does it sit. Is there scraping issues. I've heard the extra litre of fluid it holds helps a lot with staying...

    VF wheel placard

    I'm QLD You can legally have any set up that's available on may commodore variant ( hsv is considered a commodore variant) without changing your placard. The main thing they would look at is the tyre load ratings. I got this info from QLD transport. Contact your NSW transport organisation and...

    WHEEL SHOPS IN BRISBANE

    Got my rims from Stylish Wheels at Slacks Creek. They are good at working out offsets. I got my 20" Koya SF06 with Nitto Invo rubber all round for $3300.00 They have. A great selection on display.

    Living with a supercharger, thoughts?

    I've got a dyno that says 506rwhp which is roughly 505-510!Kw at engine. But I'm sure you're not happy with that explanation. Some say 30% loss through Auto makes 377rwkw become 538fwkw 25% loss still makes 377rwkw become 502fwkw So it's somewhere between those two figures. Hence the reason I...

    Living with a supercharger, thoughts?

    Yes very little throttle needed. We were only laughing the other day in the car how no one has ever put their foot to the floor. Think I'll wait for a track day to floor it.

    Living with a supercharger, thoughts?

    Power at flywheel is more like 510Kw.......economy sits on around 9.9-10.5 l/100 at 110Km/h And sorry, my mistake, average consumption is actually around 13l/100 over a full tank combined. I just read the numbers the car gives me bud. I certainly wasn't looking for great fuel economy when I...

    If you can prove it's been registered before....do not pay any GST. It's legally a second hand vehicle

    Is it worth upgrading VF2 SS to 375 or 400 kw?

    Drivability, drivability, driveability.......... That's what it's all about. A cam is a cheap way to get a larger dyno figure....but choose the wrong one, and you loose that smooth acceleration and driveability. Cammed cars can be a nightmare in heavy traffic unless you enjoy that type of stuff...
