It's so much more responsive now, i feel like i notice the power increase more at top end.. not so much off the mark. I have a quote to have a mild cam done but i probably won't go through with that just yet

I am impressed you still have this car parish, even more so that you're still doing work to it.

249 on the dyno

Not much to update, but almost after an almost a year I finally have the car currently at CHE getting OTR Maffless tune 3" Xforce Custom CHE extractors Looking forward to how it runs and sounds after. I've been told i can expect anything from a 50-60 rwkw power increase.

Yep, i reversed the positive and negatives on my subs and i was astonished at the sound quality difference... i had no idea it would make that much of a difference - and now without that silly little speaker in the center dash the stereo goes so much louder without distorting.

Cheers for the comments, and yeah timmo - that is an awkward coincidence for our names and subject names of threads. Here's a couple better quality photos. Just an update also. Want to thank Calais57 for giving me the tip to reverse the positive and negative on the subs in the parcel tray, i...

Cheers guys, yeah i definitely will lower it at some point just looking for the right setup. Well i'm interested in finding out what exhaust it has, the dealer said it was a factory option but i wouldn't of thought factory exhaust would have been so loud and gurgly

Name: Tim age: 23 Model: VE SSV Year: 2010 Colour: Red Bodykit: SS Engine Type: 6L Engine Mods: None yet Power: Standard Exhaust: It has an exhaust but i'm unsure what it is yet. Gearbox: 6SP man Diff: Standard Brakes: Standard Suspension: Standard Wheels/Tyres: SSV Interior...

Well done mate, saw photos of it on facebook looks amazing.. hows that exhaust btw? I was really disappointed in the one i got for my ute

Still got plans for that super charger?

Why do you say its photoshopped? OP: that is one hell of a ride, hope the 3" exhaust does fit. Have you asked James as TSS what he has on his maloo?

Looks good mate, how do you find the sound deadening? When i was trying to sound proof the boot of my VY i tried numerous different cheap brands and the majority of it ended up falling off. Ended up with dynamat which i can only assume is still stuck on there now. btw- i vote lose the...

that white ute looks identical to mine lol

12L/100, do you do alot of highway driving? Mines are a fair balance of start stop in the morning/nights and highways during the day.. mine sits at around 16 - 17L/100

Definantly don't just "paint" them. Have them powdercoated professionally I've thought about doing the same to mine.

Man thats a nice car i love that bonnet

Lol, thanks.

Feels like there's next to no cushion on the right hand side of the drivers seat. $125 is alright, ill look for that diy thread. thanks

Whhhhat, Impulse blue is so damn nice. I had my ute parked next to an impulse SS sedan and felt kinda sad i didn't get a blue one. As for my interior, well i really like the blue with the white - it does set it off quite nicely And the driver seat is rather worn - i was going to look into...

Man that looks sweet as! I didn't have any aesthetic mods planned but after seeing that i might have to reconsider

That is a quality photo, Welcome to aus.

Hey guys, Thought i should make a new thread for my VZ Thunder i picked up 2 weeks ago. Name: Tim Model: VZ MY06 SS Thunder Km's: 77,000 Colour: White Bodykit: Standard Engine Type: 6.0L Engine Mods: None Power: Stock Exhaust: Redback 2.5" catback Gearbox: Auto Diff: Stock Brakes...

I think the general concensus is the OP has and requires the keys for this method to work and therefore is not stealing the car.

Are there any holes in the top centre of the boot lid? I'd assume there'd be a holden badge at the very least. It sounds like the previous owner debadged it I think at this point its down to your preference which badge you'd prefer.

quality first post. lol You should take a look at the date of the first post, this is quite possibly once of the oldest posts i've seen dug up.

Thanks for the advice, I've spoken to a local exhaust shop that said they can do a 2.5" for $600, $1200 with hi-flow cats which i'm still 50/50 on. Do you get much drone in a ute?

Nice ute, what brand is the twin 2.5" exhaust that you have and would you recommend it. I'm in the market for an exhaust for my 6L thunder

As the title suggests, i need to replace the locks on the tray of my VZ SS. I'm assuming it's fairly straight forward with what I can only see, a single screw. Though I'm having difficulty sourcing the replacements. Can anyone recommend somewhere and how much they've cost you? I've...

Yeah lol i've had company cars since then.

Finally got around to getting that VZ SS Ute. Took me a while lol. Found a clean 6L Thunder at a local dealership. Picked it up this morning. Sorry for the poor photos

Nice stuff Adam, Noticed you ended up going with the FE2 springs. you know looking back i wish i had just done that to mine in the first place, when i eventually did the ride felt so much nicer. You won't ever regret that. What's this about an L67 goin in?

Bruce macarthur <[email protected]> enjoy

i used sssl springs

I have my car posted on car sales and i receieved an odd text message tonight The text message did not appear to come from a phone number? instead i have the name BruceMacar. When i hit call on the name it comes up with a number thats definantly not an australia number.. 2782362227. So...

I had my VY dropped 3" along with a gas tank on 19s with no scrubbing issues...remember the lower you go the more your wheels will camber.

looks **** house. only kidding. :) i was stoked to get my rear bar, makes it so much nicer aye? thought about how low your gonna go yet?

rear bar looks mint man.. that street in your before picture looks awful familiar tho :P - i literally thought it was just a picture of my old commy that you posted lol.

my VY v6 on gas used to sit at 15L/100kms.. consider yourself lucky

yeah cars long gone :P i'm not 100% sure but they look like advanti's - totally get where your coming with the the "different look" too many commys look identical. i had no issues with my door moulds flaking, just didn't look as good as a professional paint job. though obviously home jobs...

wow $400 to paint the trolley strips is alot.. have you thought about doing it yourself? i did mine and never looked back and only cost me $40 or so. not too keen on the chameleon lip on those rims.. i've always thought shadow chrome suits silver cars - but that's just my opinion just a...
