    Towbar wiring harness?

    What is the lighting module for? I have a towbar but this was already here? fitted led blinkers and now the lights flash fast, but i noticed this box down the back when looking for relays as it was clicking. Still i can't find any relays that control the blinkers or is this it?

    can we put 18" on the back?

    dunno if its legal, or covered for insurance in an accident. the rolling diameter might end up the same but the difference in sidewall height the handling could be dangerous and unpredictable. you shouldn't even really fit different tyre brands if you want even handling.

    vt stalls for no reason at any speed or even idleing

    if i'd seen this thread i would have said crank angle sensor, typical symptoms of that.could have saved a lot of money going straight to that, about $80 and a bit of time.

    Clock for lumina

    cassette player? they never had those fitted.... the lcd doesn't have a time display option? wear a watch maybe. you don't want some cruddy little clock stuck somewhere. expensive option is put a statesman dash surround in that has a spot for a clock up the top.

    bonnet badge came off :(

    they all have double sided tape. if your good and patient you could try cutting some out to the shape. Some clear silastic would be easier and cheaper if you have some around already don't need much. use some masking tape to hold it down while it drys.

    Lumina Radiator problem

    your mechanic should be able to work it out. pressure test the system. that will tell you if you have any internal or external leaks. the plastic end tanks on the radiators are weak. head gaskets are ok pressure test will tell you. make sure you have no air locks in the system check the...

    oil for ls1?

    for starters mobil 1 synthetic is recommended on HSV's not holdens even though they are the same motors up to VZ anyway. go figure, holden uses various oils themselves including magnatec on holdens if the motor is noisy on the recommended then its probably valve train noise. i've run...

    Sexiest Body?

    VT and VX nice curves, not squared off like later, VY on has an awful Magna tail light setup, fronts ok. VX R8 best looking shape ever. If you get over having the latest and the best, get over the old thing then the VX was a great shape. VE like the wide track, flared guards. Rest dunno...

    Lowerd Vt / Vx Pic's Thread ?

    i hate having to take it easy over gutters and speed bumps. i like the low look but it isn't really practical, had FE2 hieght back on for some time now. looks crap but a pleasure to drive. Who wants a speed hump race?

    Why do people put VX/Monaro Tail Lights on their VT's??

    even harder to do with clear and black tint as the variation in colour is harder to hide the reverse lights. but turned out ok i didn't try to hide the word Chevrolet at the top of the panel can see it reflect in daylight through the colour (not in the shade), can also see led's through it No...

    advise on tail light set up....

    change anything you like so it doesn't look like the other 2 million cloned cars around i say. although chrome tail lights with a vt oem red garnish looks very crap. chrome lights are for ricers real cars need black.... not sure about SS badges on a 6. mines an 8 but i prefer no badges so no...

    advice

    should be once a year fluid change for normal use. the fluid absorbs moisture from the air over time and corrodes parts inside. basically when changing the pads its preferred to open the bleeder while pushing the pads back in for 2 reasons. 1. you don't overflow the master. 2. you don't push...

    Hid lights in vt???? Legal???

    and forcing you to clean them helps with what? keeping them as bright as they can be? That the silly rule. Halogen misadjusted or coming up a hill are still blinding to oncoming cars, just not as blinding. depends if they are using +50's or 100 w halogen etc. Everyone is getting these lights...

    New 36Lb Injectors on Vx Com, now Troubles

    but it has to be programmed for those injectors, better check that or it still won't run right. you can't change the fuel delivery without changing the tune/mapping. the tune that comes with a charger is only a get me going safe tune, you still need to get it fine adjusted to suit your...

    Noisy Lifters (?)

    other way around, thinner oil pumps up lifters quicker because it gets there sooner than thicker oil when cold. lifter cleaner works if has crap caught in lifter/s, if just failed it won't fix it.
