Reviving an old post, needed my guards rolled for some wider rear wheels. This bloke https://guardrolling.com.au/ did an awesome job. Used a tool to fold the edge rather than rolling, looks factory. Moved the bumper bracket screw and folded up the metal tab. No distortion or cracked paint.

Adios amigo, may a big torquey comfy cruiser be in your future.

3 piece Simmons over standard HSV APs. Pic below (yes I know they are pretty grubby).

Don’t sweat it. Lots of miles, no dramas with a credit card between wheel and calliper. I’d post picture but cannot find a way to reduce file size on phone.

Latest version of Hptuners allows you or your tuner to program the bimodal operation. Will cost an extra credit as the control is via the Fuel System Control Module (FSCM). Have programmed my R8 to not shut the valves until later in Sport Mode. PS Also owe a thanks to Kelly and Craig at Zupps...

I ended up with some VF2 mufflers on my Tourer (long story) and they are much quieter than the HSV version, even with the relay pulled to keep the valves open. Just the way they are made I guess.

I bought one once and I think the parts guy said it was listed as an E3 GTS part.

Also you’re right about the brace, stock one will go back on if possible.

Flick of the driver preference knob on the Tourer and bimodals shut and remain so, hoping that will keep plod at bay.

Yeah, need a bit more noise to drown out the cold start piston slap.

Reviving this thread. Just bought a 3” system for my tourer. Bought it from Mercury Mufflers in Brissy. It is the same system Harrop sell, has bimodal mufflers (uses your motors), 1 7/8” long tube headers, metal cats, 3.5” stainless tips and a modified cross tunnel brace to clear the bigger...

Stock alloy load rated 750kg, HF-20 load rated 690kg.

The reduction may be wheel strength related. The load rating of tyres is independent of tyre size, 102 rated is the same for 20 or 19 inch.

Yes, even a SS or Calais V8, which I believe have a 98 load rated tyre, if you have a V6 then what ever is on an Evoke is legit. There is no limit on rim diameter only on all up rolling diameter (tyre and rim) being +15mm/-26mm and not fouling the brakes/suspension. No limit on width on standard...

https://infrastructure.gov.au/roads/vehicle_regulation/bulletin/pdf/NCOP11_Section_LS_Tyres_Suspension_Steering_Nov_2015_v4.pdf Especially the bit that says: the load rating of the tyres is not less than the lowest load rating listed on the tyre placard of the vehicle or equivalent variant of...

My bad: offset should not change by 12.5mm.

Read this https://infrastructure.gov.au/roads/vehicle_regulation/bulletin/pdf/NCOP11_Section_LS_Tyres_Suspension_Steering_Nov_2015_v4.pdf All states have signed up to VSB14 (google VSB14). Covers all tyre/wheel requirements and puts to rest all the incorrect info out there e.g. Wheel size is...

Enough (for now) Think I will give the R8 (the one I bought so I wouldn't have to mod the SSV-R I ordered) a rest from mods for now. Have added VCM OTR CAI, Genie Tri-Ys, Metal Cats, LS9 cam, Crane 1.8 roller rockers, PAC valve springs, tool steel retainers and chrome moly locks. After a tune...

Zupps Aspley, 20" wheels and sill plates?

12.9l/100km @ 45.3km/h avg, Gen-F 340kw.

Cannot agree more. If you aren't hurting anyone just do it, life to short and sh: tty.

14mm is correct but 14.7mm only gives 0.35mm around the stud. Given there has to be some manufacturing tolerances of not only the stud pattern but also the stud, it is not surprising they won't fit easily. 16mm will be fine and the taper of the wheel nuts will centre the wheel. Take it you have...

LS3, less than 1000k on the clock so expect it to improve.

14l/100km Gen-F R8 Samford to Bris airport mostly non peak hour.

Headers sold sorry

Sorry 426Cuda, missed your post and headers are sold.

Seating was part of the reason I opted for the R8 over the redline, was originally planning to buy a GTS interior of eBay and fit it but there is no provision for powering the passenger seat.

Where is the Calais V Redline? Would have bought one of those.

Sedan sorry

And number plates QLD SSV408.

R8 exhaust with ceramic coated headers, HSV bimodal airbox, insect screens, black grille badge and black internal drive wheel nuts. Got a few other bits but they will go on the R8.

Just cancelled my order for a Redline, bought a Clubsport R8 Tourer instead. Some lucky soul will get my car due at Zupps Aspley on the 15th. Now to sell all my bits I bought for the SSV.

Does anyone know if there is wiring for a power passenger seat in the Redline?
