Thanks Matt, I thought these ones had that issue fixed. You probably just saved me a sh_tload of money.. cheers mate

Hi all - I wonder if anyone knows if these rockers in the picture are the same as late model LS1 (VZ) or does my car still have the 'uncaptured' needle bearings in the rockers? I was going to upgrade to roller rockers just to maintain the valve train geometry but they are so expensive I was just...

In answer to OP's question though - $880 from Harrop and whilst it's out maybe you'd consider a ratio change... https://www.harrop.com.au/shop/detroit-truetrac-m80-28-spline?search=vz&make=3&model=30&category_id=153

Sorry - admin can you please fix this I dont know what went wrong

Strueth have a go at the price though..

I think some Eaton are cast and Harrop forged (?)

Yes, true. But of interest, and my point was again if you check out other users some seem to go to sh1te afterwards, thats all. The forums worldwide speak of it, I know they are silent when they are working, heaps are happy with it but heaps arn't either so when the OP talks to his installer...

No don't get me wrong i agree but if that's the case and you add more slop to an IRS rear end that's already noisy, forewarned is forearmed that's all I'm saying. I read that truetracks were silent which they ain't and the net is riddled with guys trying to overcome the engineering with all...

Search Google keywords TrueTrack+clunk just so you're not disappointed by your new driveline noise.

EYY - Mine being just a one off job is easier for me to remove the ECU and send it down to the guys at enyvous customs who are going to do the setup there. I will no doubt learn by my mistakes otherwise and f__k the whole shebang up in the process which is not something I want to do with an ECU.

Thanks everyone for your advice, I made contact with enyvous customs who have this issue solved. You've no idea how much running around I did before it dawned on me to spend 5 minutes on here with a request for help. Cheers.

Hi all - I have confirmed a 2005 VZ Monaro (auto) ECU can be calibrated to 3.73 ratio via Tech2 as it was a stock Holden diff ratio for some other cars. I can't confirm whether anyone can calibrate a speedo to 3.9's other than via the Jaycar box, which I'd rather not use. My question is has...

Hi Monstar apprecaite the write-up, I can't find anyone in Aus that stock them let alone somone that could fit it for me (Sydney). Do you bring yours in from the USA yourself? Cheers S

Thanks everyone for your input and comments that's pretty good news, I have lodged a request with Holden today regarding my concerns and will post the response when it comes back.

This seems to be a kit for it too: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Eaton-GM-Ford-OEM-Supercharger-Coupler-Repair-Kit-Combo-GM-oil/322246146477?hash=item4b075df9ad%3Ag%3Am7IAAOSwMKpUaj88 and I like the reassuring blurb - Note: If your supercharger is leaking oil, or making a squealing noise then it may...

Hi mate - No, I don't have any issues yet, only 2500k's traveled, I've only read the info online (a bit like a little knowledge being a bad thing).. My enquiries so far - Helpful young lady at HSV replied, 'It should be OK' Holden (HSV) Senior service tech I was referred to was a nice bloke but...

Hi all, wondering if anyone has done the solid coupler upgrade on their LSA using a part such as this Yella Terra one http://store.yellaterra.com.au/holden-hsv-gts-lsa-supercharger-solid-isolator-coupling/ There are lots of horror stories on the interweb floating about re wear on the...

That line is gold and so well answered thids post.

Hi all - I have one of these for sale for $120 (brand new from GM Parts USA) is anyone is keen. Cheers

Hi mate - were you able to fit the cabin filter by any chance? Cheers

Hi all - the VE video makes it look easy, but it's a total PIA on a VF II as the whole top cover has to come off, which eliminates the tight squeeze you're referring to. I've changed cylinder heads that were easier than this and have given up in fear of busting something despite following the...

Agreed. Learnt more on here and six months before most dealers, a big thank you to those blokes that took the time to post and share their knowledge, we have all probably changed our minds a dozen times about what we want but all said it's a shared interest and appreciated by many I'm sure.

Mate once you've driven the LSA the smile on your face will help you decide. The VF is a heavy car and good with a NA LS3 but lacklustre when compared to the LSA. Guys try to circumvent this with exhausts and wheezy OTR intake mods but real grunt factory grunt comes supercharged.

It didn't concern you that it's been well thrashed like a St Kilda hooker?

My apologies and I stand corrected - I always thought we were referring to the year they were built. Must admit though that's a case of smoke and mirrors.. bit like our good old all aussie SSV Redline whees genuine GM made in Thailand of all places...

Manufactured Year 17..? Must have a tardis LOL

Hi mate I just got one in from Chevy did you need more info, looks like a prick to fit thou as the headlining has to come down. Coach have you put your shark fin on yet? Cheers

Nothing wrong with that deal mate, well done hope you enjoy and thanks for sharing.

Much appreciate the tip mate I'm onto it cheers

Bloody good value there mate well done. Must be nice to have all the shopping around and dealer speak over with!

Yes, but keep in mind there will be a bombardment of advertising soon as the last Aussie V8 is pushed and even the average Joe might be a punter. Supply and demand will give the dealers the upper hand, I do want one and might have to bend over and present if it's left too long and dealers aren't...

Hey Zero - I'm still looking to buy, have up tilll now been looking for Prussian steel as it's only been on this forum to date that it I learnt you can't get it. I'm taking Last V8s advice and searching myself and will make do with what I can find in a MY16 as the special edition sticker packs...

Hey Last8 well done mate, though I can't see why you can't mention the dealers name if you are happy with them and got a fair go which I reckon you have.

True, I m gonna take a drive out there it isnt far from my place. I can hear the bloke tapping on his keyboard when I called - in other words he's probably relying on whatver is on there. They owe you a few bucks spotters fee if your right - Ill make sure thay agree on that before I sign up! Cheers

Yep, and to quote the HSV dude “an exciting future for HSVs post-Australian built era” utes will now come with optional back seat, photo of model with optional high performance twin air horns leaked to press. Existing Holden employees invited to put in expressions of interest:

Thanks mate, was after a ute

Fair enough. I don't know what the 'they're available' would be specified on the order though as they aren't announced. May as well write a post it note and stick it on his arse, most won't know it from their elbow though so better put one up there also; just to be safe.

Final colour is as correctly advised by another member as the same as that on a Trax son of a gun grey. There are a few SV6 Utes left in NSW I'm aware of though. Keep in mind you can walk into a dealer tomorrow and order a Prussian steel redline V8 and they will happily take your money with the...

I don't think you can place a deposit without the order.
