    Stock shocks are not a problem however the ride becomes harsh so harsh in fact I went back to the stock springs.the bloke at king springs said why did you lower it the rsv and vxr are set up perfectly from stock.the ride became so bad I thought the car would shake to bits.the springs were 35%...

    my new ZB Calais experience

    Benny66 you have got warranty get it sorted through the service department.no use pointing it out to the salesman he's made a sale so is no longer interested in you.just my thoughts.

    my new ZB Calais experience

    Glove box is to small so I put manuals in the seat pocket in the back of the drivers seat.close the glove box with the palm of your hand to the left side of the lid works fine.

    my new ZB Calais experience

    Yes they sold well in nz but that's not the story in aus.and I stand by what I said about the motoring media and holden not standing by the product.

    my new ZB Calais experience

    Yes they did it was all about how good the car was.what I'm saying is after the release every one lost interest and not much good was written about it.now I'm not ragging the car I'm more than happy with my rev.

    my new ZB Calais experience

    VS 5.0 wheels magazine were all over it as you say when the zb was released they tested it against a stinger what a mismatch and that was the end of the love affair .nothing positive written after that. Holdens did not support this vehicle a bit of advertising to start with and then nothing...

    my new ZB Calais experience

    Sounds like a normal holden dealership I ordered and got the first rsv in cairns Matt the salesman was pretty good but the rest of the sales department were pretty useless.lack of advertising by holden and a general apathy in the sales department helped kill the zb along with a hostile motoring...

    Suspension.

    Matt if you lowered you rsv and then fitted 19s it would become undrivable I think if you lower it stick with the 18s I lowered it 1 Inch and the springs are 30% stiffer am thinking of putting the standard springs back in and then fitting 19s should still be comfortable.
