Thanks for that info. It looks like I can just pull the old one off and put new one straight on without anything much in the way. Maybe that's why no one has done a how to coz it's so basic... I'm hoping haha. Doing it in morning ☺

Thanks so much for this how to! Was so easy to follow and I did the whole thing all by myself. I'm about to do my pcv pipe/valve but can't find anything to help like this one.

lmao, soooo funny. The vibrating battery would have to be pretty heavy duty :w00t:

from a newsletter I got........ Completely Outrageous Department For the family who has everything, International USA have recently released the completely over-the-top International CXT ( Commercial Extreme Truck) dual cab. This is a ute, based on an Inter truck chassis with the inclusion...

I know AAMI are doing some deal now where you pay a lower premium but if you have an accident, your excess is huge. Good luck

cool, dont you love it when things like that just make your day! I had a similar thing happen but it was obviously a monaro club cruise.... man, thats what ya call a serious distraction. Made my smile even bigger when I saw them filming my ute! Was on my way to Oran Park and got so caught up...

:rofl: HAHAHA :rofl: didnt see his off, agree hes a threat, holden shouldnt have let him go, they should have gone through with the HSV deal worked flatout today to get home in time for race 1 but too much bloody traffic (mental note, buy new adhesive for dashmat) and only saw the last 2...

cant quite figure out how they will pass the gun, might be that they have to place it on the ground rather than hand to hand. Not sure, but there's no throwing allowed. This year is also only 6 crew, 8 at sandown & bathurst no worries there, at least this year, they're getting 2 extra for...

;) thanks for setting me straight,,,,ive gotten myself confused somewhere along the way :confused:

yahooooo :D Go the Holdens, Did the lucky bigpond broadband people get to see qualifying? off to a good start....6 in the top 10 t.kelly, bright, skaife, s.richards, ambrose, mcconville :king: , tander, ingall, radisich, lowndes. Morris last... :ohmy:... must have had probs

ouch, that would hurt

oooops, sorry about that...

yep, only the GTS/R VR came with the 5.0L stroked to 5.7L,,, there was only 400 made. The first GEN 3 5.7 was VT series 2

Pit stops are so important, we've seen races won and lost in the pits so I'm interested to know what everyone thinks about the new pit stop, tyre changing rule which means that the crew have to share 2 rattle guns, so they can only change 2 tyres at a time. I love watching the pit stops and...

eeeek, scary, you gotta look at it first! and pay COD Wonder why he only listed it for 1 day? Wonder why he didnt put the build date? Wonder why he didnt put the date of first rego (1 owner, should know this) You can always back out of it because in his ad he said its roadworthy and its not...

you can check for registered trademarks by going to www.ipaustralia.gov.au its a good idea to check because they can sue you if you are infringing on their ip rights, at the very least they will tell you to stop using their trademark. Funny, thats the first thing I thought about when I saw the...

My friend saw a current affairs story about ebay a while ago and apparently any one wanting deposit into a WESTERN UNION account should be considered suspect. I think ebay advises against dealing with people with such accounts. You should express your concern via email to ebay and see what they...

totally agree with you about McConville! I always find him to say good luck, hes my favourite driver and my local paper did a story on us, and he was more than happy to do a photo shoot with me and really appreciated it when I gave him a copy of it. I also agree with you about the other team...

I got woken up by it!!! :D I woke up with a huge smile on my face, beats the alarm clock any day :D I would have got up early and walked over but we were informed there would be no where to see it from. Sounded awesome

what about just selling the iron on patches? I have a pair of jeans I wear to the races with other patches and would definatley put this one on but I wouldnt wear a shirt, well, maybe a singlet or bonds type shirt but I find T's are always too baggy

I wouldn't take it personally,,, Ambrose snubs everyone. I'm dirty on him after snubbing my 10yr old nephew at the creek. We waited for ages so he could just walk right past us saying 'sorry, cant stop'. Then we waited again and the cheeky bugger snuck out the back way :ranting: They've been...

LMAO, Im just imagining what that looks like. I suppose with a bit of practice,,,, after all you still got 2 elbows and 2 knees to steer with :D

I want to change mine but cant find 'user title' anywhere in the cp :confused:

I learnt in a manual but since I drive a lot from job to job I just find it easier in auto cause I gotta eat my lunch sometime! And call customers etc. (on the hands free) I have heaps of fun in my auto and drive it how an auto should be driven.... :D right foot on acc, left foot on brake and...

thank you for the info and for the time you spent on it, I really appreciate it :wave: and congrats on the new car!

well, on the bright side.........at least I can shop at supercheap auto now, they do have some good bargains sometimes and I refuse to buy from ford sponsors

I planned to take my nephew to the drags before this was announced. I was soooo dissapointed to miss it because the V8 supercars comes before anything else in my life.....even work, but I couldn't pull out of the drags because my nephew is only 10 and had been counting down the days for ages...

After reading a story in the paper today,, Im pretty sure it wont happen because its discriminating against those who do not have off street parking, they will be the ones to pay while their neighbour with off street parking doesnt have to pay

I know this thread is for 3rd manufacturer (& ive had my say) but I just have to say,,,,what the?! What do you mean about the 'declining V8 supercars'? From reports Ive read, its the fastest growing motorsport category in the world! (fan base, I mean) Also, Ive only been following the...

There are so many 4WD's in the north sydney area, I dont think they will get away with it because most of them are the wives of rich businessmen in the area. The council has been trying to revive the north sydney business district as its becoming known as a dead town for business, this wont do...

Its true that you do have to pass the 'attitude test' but I think the best way to avoid a defect notice is to make sure your car has no defects. Its in your best interest to keep on top of the maintenance of your car. I know it seems petty but what if a big bird shits on your windscreen and you...

good on ya for seeing the light! :D congrats on the new ride, I would suggest body kit first up.......although I havnt seen the wheels it came with. Looks like a clean ute, sorry to say this but I reckon the after market tonneau looks a bit too ford'ish

good for you!! Do yourself a favour and buy the book ALLEN CARRS EASYWAY TO STOP SMOKING. It will make you realize how we are brainwashed into thinking that smoking is enjoyable, and instead of telling you why you should give up it explains to you why you smoke and why you dont need to...

Im just about to get some 18" wheels for my ute and need new tryes. Can I have some suggestions for tyres with these points to consider.... 1) its pretty damn low,, 2) my work gear in the back is very light,, 3) the only time I loose a bit of confidence is in the wet. Ive heard that the...

mines more of a description than a name......SEX ON WHEELS! but my mechanic calls it SS thunder

its funny,,,,i often look in the mirror at lights to see people squinting to read it, then they crack up laughing

I have 2 stickers...... an aussie flag about the size of a postage stamp on the tailgate next to the ss badge.... and one on the back window that says ..........A WOMANS PLACE IS IN A UTE............

Ive been driving holden V8 utes for about 9yrs now and am still trying to figure that out! Slowly, its becoming more acceptable in society but theres always a ******** from the dark ages at every 2nd set of lights. :mad:

remember too, some people are just a bit shy and takes a while to be comfortable. :unsure: For example, if I went out to dinner with a bunch of people I didnt know, I would be pretty quiet in the begining until I knew they were friendly enough to open up a bit more. To some, its no different...

Wasn't project blueprint supposed to make the cars more even? Why would they do all that and then have a level 1 and level 2 in the same category? Doesn't make sense. I would rather they keep it just holden/ford
