Location is a key factor too. If you're in Ceduna (SA I'm assuming?) Then being in a fairly remote part of the country, there would be far less choice of cars than a city, so I think you could get 4K very easily, just might take a bit longer to sell :)

I did my tax on the 8th of July and recieved the return on the 26th. Was a bit surprised as the previous year I received it within a couple days of lodging. Both times I did it myself, using the e-tax program downloaded from the ATO website. Didn't really worry me, only the 3rd year I've lodged...

Thanks guys. Yeah i had heard of before that I can use a higher power amp, but was just wondering if there was a limit to how far I can go. Keeps my options wide open :)

Ok, so I'm working out the stereo for my yet-to-be-purchased dual cab ute. Looking at a slimline sub and powering with a 2 channel amp bridged. The sub is a 10" slimline 4ohm, with a max power of 800W and RMS rated at 200W. The amp is putting out 760W peak and 380WRMS bridged at 4ohm. If ya...

G'day I'm building a 4x8 single axle trailer to carry bikes, starting with a rolling frame I bought off a neighbor and modifying to suit. The frame didn't have registration, or a number plate and has no compliance plates or serial numbers of any sort. He couldn't tell me anything about it, as...

not getting into the ethanol debate, this is just for the benefit of the OP :p I ran the ethanol stuff from my local United servo for around 3 years, didn't seem to have a problem with it in my VS (similar ecotec motor to the VY as you may know). continued to use it because every time i filled...

That's awesome, thanks Juzo :) was looking at a Pioneer model that had WhereIs mapping for around a grand, but after reading a few reviews turned me off! How do you find it to use? Are you able to jump between the GPS and Stereo controls, and have music playing while the GPS is displayed? Seems...

hey mate, what brand/model head unit is that? any special fitting mods or kits needed? USB interface? I want one!

I was looking at that same unit earlier today to fit into a Hilux that I intend to buy soon, but after reading this CNET review I think I'm gonna keep looking for something more suitable...

lol after spending 1.5 hours on Friday night clicking away trying to get through to Ticketek I finally managed to score a gold area spot with my old man's Visa card. Gonna go off!!

Sweet lux mate. Looks great, and the flares make the SR look tough :thumbsup: Although I really hope it wont be that clean too much of the time haha. Rims look nice too. With luck I'll be replacing my VS with a good secondhand D4D SR5 in a couple months and doing the usual roobar, brush bars...

hey mate, has it got an auto? im looking for the t-bar shift leaver. pm me if you like

hey mate, where about in Adelaide are you? I'm chasing the auto shift leaver. Not the switch or linkage or anything, just the leaver and knob

PM sent mate :)

G'day So the plastic lift-up, locking part on my VS's auto selector lever has broken. The spring or whatever that locks it down isn't working and it's pissing me off as I've knocked it into neutral a couple of times now and it just feels like crap with no tension on it. Is there anyway to...

We need them for feral animal control and putting down crippled livestock. Baiting is reasonably effective, but it's only part of it, and 1080 bait is a slow and painful death, horrible when a dog of yours digs up a fox bait. Firearms should be allowed to those who need them and prove that they...

Hey guys After installing an amp into the boot of my VS this afternoon, i now have a few weird problems. turn ignition on and... -air con fan on full (climate control unit off) -no trip computer/odometer (green display backlight still works) -no dash lights (but interior lights work)...

g'day im going to install a 680w 4-channel amp in my car this weekend, and instead of buying a wiring kit going to get the components cheaply though my work. For the main battery and earth wires im going to use 4 gauge (20mm) cord. my question is, what kind of fuse should i use for the...

Sunrise on the farm - few years back with the old 3.2mp camera

get yourself a hilux in singapore do it in a hilux! unbreakable. :thumbsup: but when the unthinkable does come to pass, at least you can source parts no matter where you are. then sell the thing when you get to the UK... hmm you've given me ideas :D

hey bloke, i've got the same splits as you in my VS. If you pull off the glovebox, there's a plastic shelf thing behind there that the left-hand crossover sits perfectly on. From there you can easily run the wires through the grommet in the door and to where ever you choose to put the tweeters...

yeah thanks mate, yeah i hope he's as good i was crushed when she died. lol he spikes his ears up whenever he hears the ute start up, and bolts off after his old boy to go for a ride, then he sees how high the tray is and starts wining away when he cant jump on haha. seems to get the idea with...

hey nice looking pup you have there, i love staffies! :thumbsup: We recently have had a new addition to the family. Our 10y.o. Kelpie dog got it on with the neighbor's Kelpie bitch and as a result we got little Cooper! His parents are both workers (sheep dogs), and if he's gonna turn out...

lol oh yeah, seeing as you only started this thread today... one im thinking had the part number for it posted yeah really happy that it did fix it, and that i hadn't wasted 90 bucks on something that wasn't broke

after reading this thread last weekend i went and ordered the solenoid block and fitted it in this morning. absloute friggin pain in the arse spot to get at but after about 2hrs stuffing around, took it for a drive and FINALLY the climate control works perfectly! haha woot :D

yeah i drilled a hole through the shelf and just ran a bolt through one of the mounts on the crossover, it's sitting on a carpet sort of lining and doesn't move at all :)

In my VS there's a plastic shelf behind the glove box which is where I've got my left hand one. There's also a shelf on the right hand side in the same position if you drop the panel below the steering column, but its a bit more difficult to get to. after doing the left one i cbf with it and...

abolish mandatory voting... might at least stop most bogans showing up. But unfortunately its the self-opinionated intellectuals who are so far out of reality with the world who are the real danger.

Obviously you've never been proper four-wheel driving then hey? hehe...

Hi all, wondering if you guys could help me out with this one... Ok, after getting the condenser replaced and my air-con regassed, i fould out why the forward facing air vents had a habbit of not following what the control unit was doing (ie. not blowing when the arrow was clearly displayed)...

should have gone with a HMMWV M1025 (military spec humvee). I think seeing the action end of a .50 cal would be a bit more of a persuasion over the flashing lights in the revision mirror hehe.

please explain?? maybe this car also came with a flux-capacitor?? :p

1. Each player should furnish his own equipment for play - normally one club and two balls. 2. Play on the course should be approved by the owner of the hole. 3. Unlike outdoor golf, the object is to get the club in the hole and keep the balls out. 4. For most effective play, the club...

i think you should have B&S'd it hehehehe... but anyway, as a street ute that nudge bar doesnt do it any favours IMO. You could one day go for a shorter, thinner ariel and fit it just behind the cab, maybe on top of a sports bar. The unit can go underneath the radio, where that pocket is...

Got a Nokia 2125 CDMA. Basic, but it's great, never let me down... :rip: CDMA network :cry: Going to upgrade to the LG TU500 on prepaid, only reasonably priced Next-G handset ive heard anything good about. Might grab a carkit for it aswell.

deffinately a great project you've got going there mate :thumbsup: wonder how much interest you'll get while driving, or parked somewhere public and have people wondering what the hell that thing is on the dash?? lol

You could by a VT for 5k but it'll have been worked. If you want a commodore I'd personally look for a decent VS, older but less kms and better condition for a similar price. Go private if you can, price is usually lower and it may be easier to haggle the price down depending on the owner.

Howdy y'all I'd like to invest in a head-unit with USB interface. Digital storage is dirt cheap nowdays so i though a 4GB flashdrive would be pretty cool to have my music on, and it'd be hell easy to switch songs over from my computer, rather than burn CDs for every couple of new songs i get...

Wow, that looks sweet. Great design. Since your a signwriter i have a question for ya; how much would i be looking at spending for an airbrushed image to fill around half the space on the bonnet?

ah ok, didnt know there were screws there, had to go out and find them lol thanks mate
