I just bought an ice ignition kit for Commodore &hsv 6.0ltr ls2 part no. 9GM829. Cost all up $300 for 8 ngk plugs and 8 ice 9mm pro leads, it also has some sort of mesh sleeves I’m assuming for the leads. I also have a new crane cam spitfire lx92 ignition coil to go with it. Any simple...

Hi guys, I have a vz ss Ute L98 ls2. Just bought a Walkinshaw cam & spring kit, it’s the lsa cam kit. I have just orders a t3/4 turbo kit. My block has 150,000ks, just need advice on anything else I might need to get the most out of this while the engine is apart, aswell as suspension advice, my...

I just dropped it of to my mechanic and told him my plan to get 800-1000bhp and told him he has a $8000 budget to rebuild engine and gearbox with performance parts to get it prepped for twin turbo, supercharger or nos whatever I decide he will have it for the rest of year, thanks mate U...

I've thought about the twin turbo ls block kits for $3000 then of course labour to install , I haven't driven many turbo but it just feels like it lags untill certain rpm, whereas fogger wet injection nos kit fully installed is only $3000 so there are a lot of options but def would get the...

Glad I'm talking to someone who knows what there talking about. That all makes sense, although I do drive it everyday I got it to be my pride & joy toy so I'm going for horsepower, if I want economy is buy a hybrid lol

Sorry ment VE, VN, VK's but love vz the most

Yeah this is sort of my problem, cause my knowledge isn't as vast as most I don't think of the other things, I mean of course why wouldn't I put a new clutch in while I'm paying for labour and it's all apart anyway. Thanks man, if U don't mind me asking I'm considering a cam upgrade but don't...

Yeah true, slot of components, from what I'm told a rebuild is the same cost as a low km second hand box but then again it's not in the car so U don't know what your getting so I guess Il have to find a decent company to do a rebuild. Thanks for your help, slot of up themselves guys on this...

Hi guys, my t56 when changing into 5th or 6th then accelerating starts winning pretty bad so I pop it back to neutral then back into gear as this usually stops it, just wandering if an6one knows why, IV checked fluid, it sort of started when m6 reverse stuffed up, I can only get reverse if I...

Yeah well I work 7-days a week so forgive me if I don’t read every message, for me this forum is for knowledge & convenience as I have been away for last 10yrs until early this year so I saw heading whinnying noises & thought good place to ask the fellas, as much as I love my vz v8 I don’t have...

Well not to be obvious but as a new member!! Still working out the forum & the heading is whinnying noise so thought I’d ask, as a staff member you think you would be helping rather than criticising. No problem though will just stop using the forum altogether. Thanks for your help, excellent...

Hi guys, quick question, my t56 on my vz ss thunder won’t go in to reverse unless slightly rolling back, also sometimes it whines wen changing into 5th or 6th, usually I just pop it back to neutral and put it back in and is sweet again, anyone no what it could be & would it be a simple fix or is...

[QUOTE="vr304: thanks mate I will have a look now

Thanks but from what I’m told that’s basically the only difference between your l76 and my l98, the l98 doesn’t have did dod anyway ,so what your saying is get a cam off the 6.2ltr and get a tune ?

Fair enough, any suggestions on a decent cam I’ll be happy with and worth doing? I hear comp cams get thrown around a lot but all I’m really going to do to engine is new lifters probly just the same performance replacements and the cam then the otr cold air and wet injection fogger no’s and mad...

hey guys, just had an option to buy a L77 6L cam off the vf, it would be going on my L98 ss thunder Ute vz, for $200 with 50000kms on it , my ute has 130000k and is stock only mid is wildcat extractors hi flow cats & twin 3” xforce catback just installed, think I should get it and is there...

Thanks, any thoughts on lifters, I’m at 130000kms and was thinking tie bar rods or a mate offered to sell me comp roller rockers used once for $300. I just got new twin 3” system and getting wet injection nos in 3 weeks and a tune, so any idea on what I could do before the no’s and tune

So u reckon 3:45, I’m leaning towards 3:9, I’m always on the highway for hours a day to and from work I do 10000k’s every sort of 2 months, I picked my car up after getting exhaust system installed, it sounds so deep now, I’m happy but the acceleration does feel abit flat at low rpm, iv also got...

Hi guys, I’m at a loss my 06 vz ss thunder l98 manuel is very decent on take off but want it quicker, on 105km in 5th 2100rpm and 105km in 6th 1500rpm, unless I’m changing into 6th at 130k + it just drones and I feel lose of power, I’m told to go 3:9, what do you think, I want to sort it before...

Cummo14 can I get those 2 calculator sites. Email: [email protected], I’m trying to find a good ratio for my t56 l98 thunder Ute, I got beaten by boss 340 Ford the other day, not happy

I’m confused, I have ss thunder VZ Ute and I want it quicker off take off, it’s manuel l98, I’ve been told 3:9 are the go, I would just be using 6th a lot more. Now I’m lucky to get 6th as even when shifting 6th at 130km it still feels gutless and drones, plz someone give me an opinion on what...

Much appreciated if anyone else has opinions plz let me know

Hi, would like some opinions, up in there air wether to get no’s wet injection or turbo, I’m leaning toward turbo cause it’s legal and gets more horsepower but don’t know what turbo or manifold to get, any opinions? It’s for my vz ss thunder l98 ute

This is why I joined forums, I probly sound like an idiot with these questions but I got to learn somewhere, so that all makes sense, obviously I didn’t think of that, when I bought the Ute I was told it had a cam in it but I wouldn’t be able to tell without taking head off would I? I’m on my...

Thanks I might look into the tie rods, I know there cost abit more at roughly $700 for parts but probly better performance wise, any other suggestions before I get them done and a mafless tune ie. throttle body?

As abit of research is telling me my l98 6ltr engine in my thunder Ute is decent the lifters keep popping up as a weakness so was wandering if anyone had suggestions on roller? Or something that would make a difference?
