don't think they where taped on. but the guy driving did looked like a stoner, not surprisingly he stop off at centre link :-p

something new not just riced but looks like a RC toy car too. i'm guessing the spoiler would be acting more as an air brake then giving down force on the car

easiest thing to do is to slice into the illumination wires in the drivers pillar that run to the dome light, i know in the VS-pre it was the orange wires, not sure about the VT IMO don't see the point of having them on whilst having driving lights but that's just me. as for a switch, check how...

darn its been too long, not much has happened to the since last post since i needed to save up spending money for when i went overseas. got a sports exhaust fitted with rear res. w/twin dump pipes which i'm happy as with hubs like the zebra skin are long gone, painted and put back in the grill...

how to on it; http://forums.justcommodores.com.au/t53659/

well here's some pics, goin for the stock look i painted the grill inserts matt black the other day, which look quite good i'll try to get more better pics when the weather brightens up

this happened to me, stopped after i changed the gasket+pump as Wortus said, try re-bleeding the system (i found if you squeeze the top hose the bottom hose bodges up then you don't have any air but it might still do it even if there is air, not 100%) or maybe the gasket is on its way out you...

cheers mate, not much one can do whilst on P's for another 2 years i've taken off the hubs and polished my steelies, been driving on them for a good while. tho the hubs make an appearance once in a full moon i've done a couple of small things since the last post. repainted the engine cover...

hows the reservoir level? check the cap on it and the lines for holes. my VS had a small crack on the cap which i was able to close up with a thick layer of superglue (still closed after 3 years :p) last month i had to change my water pump's gasket when it failed, one of the warning signs was...

yeah the 100A will do for now. in short, a short circuit is when all of the batteries power is going from one terminal directly to the other. all this high current creates heat causing the wire insulation to melt if the current is higher then what the wire can handle and thus exposing more wire...

thanks for correcting me there, completely forgot about that :hit:

basic rule to figuring which fuse is; wattage/voltage=amp (700+400)/12=91A 14V whilst the car is running (700+400)/14=78A so at full power it'll be sucking 79A@14V. so a 80A fuse seems right. (cranking the audio whilst the car is off is just flatting your battery IMO) a circuit breaker(not...

not that hard to do. one of the things is that fuel pump/ignition pump requires constant power(you have to turn on the switch when you start and leave on. when you turn off your engine, you also have to turn off the switch ) while the starter needs momentary power (just push, when the car...

Shane Jacobson is better then Shane Warne from what was originally planed i guess

i got the number off the block and starts VH56 which means I'll have to get the serise 2/VT/VX pump (WP4001) since the engine number is above VH515479. so it looks like they started fitting these pumps in or before March '96 (folks bought the car new and no engine swaps) i believe the...

i know its series 1 because i know the build date is march 96 (i did check it before) might go to repco/independent car store to see if they have multi fit ones. (i don't buy stuff off the net unless i can walk to the sellers shop if something happens) i'll go engine number hunting when i have...

so the shim is a spacer that goes on top of the wheel where the bolts attach? my rego says the engine number is well past VH515479 (second ebay link), starts off with VH56 which means it needs a serise 2 pump even tho the car is series 1 :unsure:

i was looking into about there being 2 is the what is the difference? is it engine wise? (eg different for l76?) my VIN states: 6H8VSK19H HTL###### super cheap parts guide suggests this pump for it as it says its for VS 6H8VS#19H Water Pump - PWP4000A - Supercheap Auto should i go out and...

on Morton's guide it only says for series 1 engine (L27). appreciate all the info:spot on:

slayer208 if you don't mind me asking, did you have to take off the smaller pulley which is just upper right of the pump or can you just pull the pump off with the bottom hose still connected? plus did you take off the spacer so i should buy an extra gasket? my Max Ellery manual which shows...

understand what your saying TheIceman, but you know how people always want a cheap quick fix before taking it to the mechanics unless they know what you have to go through. started her up this morning and the leak started. the only reason I'm thinking its stopping is when the stop leak goes...

yeah, same here. no real over heating problems. drove it again for awhile with no leaks, but it could be the stop leak working. i'll see what happens when i start it up tomorrow morn my mate and his dad (who both know their stuff) said it sounds like the ball bearings are gone.

hey folks, sorry to get another coolant leak thread up :banstick: but yesterday my car started leaking coolant. i parked it in the shed to do some checks and took no notice of a small puddle of coolant since i topped it up earlier. but when i drove my car out of the garage and parked it in the...

as hwy747 said, the side rear seats have the "wings" which stick out, found it abit annoying after awhile when in the back but nothing major. the fabric of the outer edges of the wings will have 3 small " + " shaped holes for the plastic connecters but you can hot glued them shut. the base seat...

attach to the ciggie lighter as mentioned if you want it on when the car is on, but loses power like the radio when your starting the car. i hooked up mine to get power directly from the battery though a spare fuse slot, so i always get live readings when I'm starting the car, but its switch...

remove the central console side panel (just right of the dash, the panel with the air vent outlet which joins to the door vents) only held in by 3 screws. you should see the wires going into the kick panel, separate the illumination wires from the other wires, gently pull towards you until you...

white leds FTW!!! their the only ones you can get away without any negatives I've pretty much converted every light & switch to white, it help's open up the interior, makes it look more roomy. i suggest you also get a white led interior globe replacements. i still have my blue roof ones :rofl2...

to the positive orange wire next to the neg wire ;)

the illumination is negative triggered, in the VS it's the orange/white wire

their posting rice in "Pic of the day" so now their posting "Pic of the day" in here :rofl2:

if the switch has a ground pin and a specific pin for power, then its a illuminated switch. I'm not 100% about the 2 pin flasher unit, so as suggested post a picture of the diagram on the flasher, but if it says 49a goes to the light then it would go like this. general rule for fuses is to...
