Nah the trans has been running fine until this. I had a quick look in the dark last night and after having the car idling for a few mins then turning it off you can hear the trans fluid sounds like its boiling. I'll take a closer look at that breather pipe in the daylight after work. Where...

Hi guys, My bro has a V6 VS Ute, just the other day it started pressurizing the trans fluid to the point that it shot the dipstick out and covered my shed with fluid. My instant assumption was that the trans was stuffed and I have started hunting for a new trans for him, however, someone...

Hey Guys, Just started having some dramas with my electric antenna. I have an aftermarket headunit and the antenna has been working fine for years, but now, it will only go up a couple of inches. I've hooked a test light to the red and white wires and tested it and it only supplies the up...

Thanks for the input guys, any reason you recommend the 1.9s? Seems like they are the most popular option so just curious. I have been considering getting the 69mm TB as well but I have a T5 sitting at home waiting to go in so figured I would do that at the same time, save stuffing around with...

Hey guys, Currently debating about getting some rockers for my rig but unsure what ratio I should be looking at. I was thinking bigger is better but thought some professional input might be helpful. My current setup is VS Calais with motor from a VX (if memory serves me right) with the...

ITEM: Looking for a set of 16" stockies to suit the VS stud pattern, with tyres and a bit of tread would be nice :) LOCATION: SA CONDITION: Used PRICE: Will consider any reasonable price PAYMENT OPTIONS: Happy to pay whatever way pleases you CONTACT DETAILS: PM or Message (0418...

Interested in the centre console lid man, got any pics of it?

I have done this in my VS calais. I am currently running the L67 with my stock ecotec trans with no problems but the L67 trans does have a different torque converter and I think is a bit stronger. Essentially the motor will drop straight in but you will need an L67 loom and memcal. Your ecotec...

Sweet setup you get there mate. How does the L67 go with the T5? I am in the process of dropping an L67 into my Calais and am thinking about selling off the auto and fitting a T5. How much did the adapter set you back?

Well the car has been found. Cops found it this morning as it was in an accident and it looks as if it might be a write off. The witness who reported it said that after the crash 2 guys got out and ran for it. So the car is with forensics at the moment and then my mates insurance company is...

Hey guys, My mates car was stolen yesterday morning while he was at trade school and the car next to him had it's window broken and ignition barrel smashed. From memory he goes to the TAFE on regency road. But it was a black R32 skyline with vic plates. We drove over and picked it up from...

Hey guys, I know its not a commodore but hopefully someone can help me out anyway. I have a mate with a Toyota Supra and every time you open one of the doors one of the indicators comes on. I installed some LED's for him the other day and they now blink with the indicator. I also noticed that...

It was only a cheap kit from ebay but um no it isn't like that. I just read over the instructions a couple more times and I think I might have misunderstood some of the directions due to the poorly translated english. So I will take another look at it when I get home from work and see if I can...

Pretty sure you will find that a N/A ecotec has a higher compression ratio than the supercharged engine. So if you did take the supercharger off it would probably run horribly.

Hey, I posted this in the electrical and wiring last night but haven't got a response yet and am getting kinda of desperate. I bought a HID kit for my VS Calais and am having a bit of trouble wiring it up. The instructions say to put one of the wires onto the headlight relay, well as this...

Hey, I just bought a HID kit for my VS Calais and am having a bit of trouble wiring it up. The instructions say to put one of the wires onto the headlight relay, well as this is a low beam kit I had a look at the low beam relay and after playing around with my multimeter all I can find is a...

A single tone VS Calais! I have a single tone white VS Calais and I have never seen another one.. I approve :p

I have a VS Calais and it also has IRS so I had the same problem. When you lower a car with IRS you get negative camber issues. The lower you go the more negative camber you get. You can get camber kits that will help but it won't make it perfect again. I have lovell superlows and a 4 point...

How often should this be done? I have never done mine but up until not long ago my car was serviced at the local holden dealer so I assume they would have done it at every big service.

Well mate your welcome to your opinion but like it has been said my sister wants them, my dad thinks its a good idea and is willing to buy the stuff for me to do it for her. I didn't ask if people thought they were worth getting or not I asked about the different products currently on the...

Ah ok cool, thanks for clearing that up guys. You both have a good point, If i am going to be drilling holes in a bumper I am not going to want it to fail 6 months down the track. I wanted to avoid the normal ones mostly because I am not that comfortable with drilling holes in my sister's new...

Ah ok, this may seem like a stupid question but what do you mean by "you dont really know how far away anything is"? It says that it starts beeping more and more frequent as you get closer to the obstacle. But yes I do see what you mean when you say about why merc, bmw etc. aren't using it...

Hey guys, So my younger sisters just got their P's and a little Toyota Starlet. My dad is a bit concerned about their driving skills so asked me to see if I could get some reversing sensors and install them to help them out. Anyway I was having a look on ebay and I saw this REVERSE PARKING...

Thats ok its no problems, oh and welcome to the forum. As for the heater thing I am not sure how you would go about removing it or what issues you would encounter. Do a bit of a search and if you can't find anything make a new thread in the VR-VS section. But without the heater box I imagine...

With the double din head unit you will have a huge problem as the heater box is just behind the "second din" so it wont fit. If you do a search you might be able to find a thread from a few years back with some pictures of a guy who did it but instead of making the single din a dual din by...

Ah ok then, well I just called a mate who is an apprentice mechanic to see if he could do it as from what you have said it seems like something I should leave to a pro. He said they do them all the time and is willing to come round my place one weekend and give me a hand fitting the parts. So I...

Hey guys, I took my car in to get the air con re-gassed the other day and I was told I need a new condenser and receiver drier. They were going to charge me a little over $500 so I looked into the issue and found I can get the parts cheap and it looks easy enough to do. So I figured that i...

Ok well I have a decent sized list. Some of these I have seen at festivals others have been the bands own individual gigs. I am sure there are a few more I have forgotten about as well. Also to add to the list I am going to see No Trigger, Anchors and Such Gold tomorrow :p Parkway Drive (4...

wow, what the hell is that about? As confusing as it is at least the ipad thingie is pictured and then mentioned in the description. Unlike the range rover and steel that appear to just be random pics. He also has an other auction which appears to be just as confusing lol vj charger rear...

You could try and grab some leather seats out of a calais, statesman or caprice. They look a heap nicer than the stock ones. Some people also paint the dash and you can always change the interior lights...

Well the first thing I did was put a 2.5" exhaust on from the cat back. I wouldn't worry about doing extractors until you have done that. By the way, I am assuming this is a V6?

This topic has been covered alot mate. Check out this thread here. It should have all the info you need. https://forums.justcommodores.com.au/threads/buick-ecotec-v6-performance-upgrades.64700

Hey mate, Do you have any grey rear electric window switches? Cheers

I am also fairly interested if you still have it.

Ah cool, I would have never thought of using a milk bottle but yeah I am fairly worried about hot spots so I will do it just in case. Thanks man.

Ah sweet, is there any need for a clear one or can I just leave the diffuser out completely? If I need one what should I make it out of?
