    VF to VE wheel nuts ?

    Wheel fitment/offset/BCD for the VE and VF is the same, so cant imagine that they would use different wheel nuts. Which wheels did you buy? VF or VFII?

    Fitment Questions

    As Forg says ^^^^, the Chevy SS does indeed use the same 4 pot Brembo's as on the SSV Redline, and 2016+ have front and rear (pre 2016 only had the front brembos) For an easy upgrade, especially living in the States, is to just buy a set of V2 CTS-V front calipers 6 pot Brembo calipers and...

    VF2 LS3: Tekno Performance Stage 1 - who has it?

    I want my V8 to be quiet under certain circumstances. Its a family car, driven by more than just me. Bimodal gives me what I want, and I would under no circumstance, want a 3" system on my V8... but everyone to their own. :spot on:

    Tyres

    I had 275 on a 9" rim and it was very square, I'm gonna say and 8.5" has no hope.

    Tyres

    Try these calculators......... Tyre Size for Rim Size/Width Calculator - What's the best tyre size for my rim? I've no idea what your rim widths are, but an 8" isnt recommended above 245. 8.5" will take a 255. Online Wheel and Tyre Fitment Calculator. Offset, Tyre Stretch and Speedo Error |...

    Pleaseeeee help, clunking noise.

    Not being a smart arse here, but it a 15+ year old car... so I'd be getting prepared to continue spending money on it to keep it road worthy if I were you. As above, could be a number of things, but likely a shock/suspension or axle/diff bush related. If you have zero mechanical savvy, bring...

    MY16 Calais V Sportswagon Empire Bronze

    The Calais is aimed at a completely different market segment , one that isn't as concerned in advertising the fact that it has an sporty LS3 motor and more concerned about understated civilised aesthetics and comfort. I personally wouldn't have bought a sticker and stuck it on a car that didn't...

    SSV Redline scraping / height issue.

    If you want to find out what Kings springs you have, measure the guard lip to centre of the axel. Ring King with the measurements and they will tell you what you have.

    What deal did you get for your vf series 2????

    New Brakes

    Just get in it and drive it as normal. Never had any issues with running in brakes on a new car.

    SSV Redline scraping / height issue.

    Measure the guard to hub center (both front and back) and report back. I'll put my money on it that you're car has been lowered from stock.

    2009 VE SSV vs 2007 BF MKII XR6 Turbo. Which one would you choose?

    To add something else to the equation, if you have maintained your VE and its in nice order, then at least you know what you have. Buying a 8-11 year old second hand car with little knowledge of history and treatment can be a costly exercise... sometimes you're better off with the devil you...

    VF Specific - Cadillac CTS-V V2 6 Pot Brembo Upgrade

    Incorrect. Have another read before making uneducated posts. He asked if they fit under "standard" 19" rims, this thread refers to upgrading from an SS or SSV to 6 pot Brembo, not a Redline.
  31. J

    VF Specific - Cadillac CTS-V V2 6 Pot Brembo Upgrade

    Nope, as stated above, these will NOT fit under standard SSV 19's. I've swapped to some VF 1 Redline wheels (I reckon the VFII are ugly as), but all HSV or HSVi HF20 wheels have the clearance. HSVi Supersport 20" will not fit either.....

    VF Specific - Cadillac CTS-V V2 6 Pot Brembo Upgrade

    Front rotors are 370mm (CTS-V 2009+) Rear rotors are 360mm (VFII Redline ) Calipers have the Cadillac "V" decals.

    VF Holden Commodore Issues and Faults

    Those pesky electrical pulses... ask the dealership to give the flux capacitor a belt of a glass hammer, that'll stop the leaking voltage.

    Do you buy your fuel in the same servo every time?

    VF HID install

    Philips state these are 4300K and are legal to ECE regulations. The ADR's align with ECE regulations and are advertised for sale in Australia as legal for road use. My point stands, buy some road legal 4300K globes for a whiter look or chance your arm and go illegal HID's..... legal HID's...

    VF HID install

    Detailed specifications on WhiteVision 12342WHVS2 Maybe Philips are telling lies?
  39. J

    VF HID install

    You are incorrect. There are halogen globes with a colour temperature rating of 4300k that are approved and legal for use in Australia. The kelvin spec is not the level of "power" output (that will be the wattage output).
