    Lowering Ve calais V

    Here you go. My car in an Equipe, it has the Berlina front end. OP you shouldn't have too much oh clearance issues with the front bar, the SV6's and SS's front bar is lower than tha Calais bar, but most concrete blocks in car parks you have to stop before them, I cant park with the front over...

    sv6 2011 91 or 95 petrol? is it worth putting 95 in

    I was having this debate too on another forum. I'm of the opinion 91 is fine to run in the V6, but 95 would be better as it's cleaner and provides slightly better economy. I have tried E10 and gotten about 150km less out of a full tank, the engine would shake a bit at idle, and it felt like it...

    Lowering Ve calais V

    With the VE and VF V6's, you need to go one level lower in the front as there is less weight in the front of the V6. I recently went through this. I went king springs SSSL in the front and SSL in the rear. I also fitted sachs shortened stuts and shocks. The ride is bloody amazing compared to the...

    Headlight question

    They're different between series 1 an 2. I upgraded my stock series 2 headlights to the Calais / SSV projectors. I got bargain OEM lights but I was looking on ebay and Mars website, theyre about $350 or so, $280 for black SS / SV6 style lights.

I know a duno tune would yield better results but Mace tunes were highly recommeded by members in this...

    Commodore Ute Drivers' Next Vehicle?

    I don't have a commodore ute but I was thinking about what my next car would be. Wife has a honda Jazz which is cheap run around and decent power for a tiny atmo 4 banger and cheep to run, but kidlets are getting bigger and I'm cramped in it. My VE sedan suits us perfectly, but I loved the VX...

    Standstills

    I have a 3.0l equipe and it won't do a stand still burnout. Even with shitty Achillies tyres on the 19" wheels it wont. It's like mentioned above anti abuse mode. Mine can do it in the wet. It' a shame because the power is there and there has been the odd occasion that I have wanted to do one on...

    Suspension Upgrade

    Do you mean sport low? I have a feeling 25mm wont be enough of a drop, my car is rather high. Good to hear that you can't notice any additional harshness. How is the driving feel compared to the stock springs? More stable when cornering?

    Suspension Upgrade

    Hi everyone. New member but long time stalker. Just want to say that this group has been great. Given me lots of helpful information over the years. Time has come for me to post for some advice. I have searched and read most of the VE suspension threads but still unsure on a few things. My car...

    ve ss suspension upgrade

    Sounds like a great outcome for you. Happy to read that your car ride is softer than stock but handling has improved.
