Thank you all, and thank you risky very much for your help. I walked away from the deal. I only found out about the collision because of the vsr, my mechanic didn't notice anything but the seller went quiet on me when I told him I wasn't interested anymore. It was getting more and more...

Hey guys. He told me he got defected because of bold tyres. Would that be classified as written off report? Being defected? If so, is that a bad thing? Would the cops target me now because of the defect on the vehicle?

Thanks. Is it still worth buying? It's a vz Calais, 7,500 condition looks pretty amazing. 97,000 kms.. I'm now just a little nervous. But if it's been deemed road worthy?

Hello. I've just had my mechanic overlook a vehicle I am looking at purchasing, and he cleared it with no log reports or anything on the motor. It's only done 96 thousand ks though. I just dome a vsr to finalise before I buy the vehicle and it's showing as this - No encumbrance...

Thanks guys, I was considering taking them off, and putting some vz Calais wheels on it. Which is why I was wondering if I'd be able to get around 300-400 bucks for them. So I can buy the other wheels. I tried looking at the badge and for someone who had no idea about cars I had 0 hope in...

Hello all, Just purchased a new vehicle and they come with these 20" rims. What are they??? What are they also worth if I sold them on gumtree or something? Rear tread is getting a little low, Still legal though, front two are great.

Hey mate, Had my mechanic go over the car and there's no warning signs anywhere, The computer doesn't have any bad history in it, He said the suspension and buche's or whatever where really tight and good, Only thing he said was the rear tyres where a little worn and will need replacing. Other...

Hey mate, Mrs doesn't enjoy the crewman so decided to look at the Claias Sedan, I've just went out in it for a test drive and fell in love. There's no rattles, No bangs, full leather has not many marks, the car looks almost brand new. What checks should I have been looking out for ? I'm...

Amazing! thank you, I'm not totally sure on body to be honest, It's for a daily second vehicle as well as a boat to tow with, the mrs will take the cruze off me. I've actually seen a couple of cars I really like, How's this list? 2006 Holden Calais Sedan // 97000KM // Wanted 9, Can haggle...

Hey all, Been looking for a car to tow my boat with, And have been considering a VZ/SV6 likely, I'm just curious what the going prices are for these roughly at the moment? I've been seeing 120-130 thousand K, SV6's on carsales for around 8k but unsure if that's what they'e actually selling...

I was told by an audio store though "Ministry of bass" If I leave the rear speakers alone that when I turn the speakers up I will hear them all distorted though and I should be getting a 5 channel amp and amping them as well ? Thanks on your other options, looking into them now

Hey fellas, About to buy one of these - HOLDEN VT-VX BOBTAIL,SPOILER,WING ,BODYKIT,HSV STYLE | eBay Have a few questions though. 1. In adelaide, What would it roughly cost to get painted? 2. I have a light in my spoiler now, Will I get defected for not having a light in my window since...

How did you do that ? I'd love to go white dials with orange instead of the pink "Own a tiger mica" Thanks!

Thanks mate! I'll get back to you when I have a bit more time and let you know what I end up getting, or ask for more help !

Thanks mate, so do you think it's best to amp front speakers or get the 6x9s and amp them? Or get front and rear speakers and amp the rears? Hmm.

What do you mean metal plates?

1. Thanks, So instead of doing parcel shelf, you're saying just put decent 6" in my doors? Do you think I should amp them ? or the front speakers? Because I'll likely bridge it so 2 goes to the sub, and 2 goes to the speakers. 2. True, thanks for the thought.

Hey guys, how is this system? I have a mate who does installs so won't need to worry about install costs. Looking at a tight punchy kind of bass, Nothing over the top, clear quick audio, Something that can kick pretty decently. With the stuff I've listed this is what I was considering doing -...

Just curious, Been given around $3000-$4000 not too sure, What would you guys consider doing to it? Things I've considered - $800 sound system, I've already got a double din head unit, so will just require the subs, amps, and speakers. Changing the spoiler to a VX Senator bob tail Super lows...

Hey guys, Looking at buying some new stuff off ebay for my car, old covers are becoming worn and decided I'd go the colours that my vehicle is, I was considering buying these two things and I'm curious if they'd fit - 1. Circle Auto Car Superfine Leather Steering Wheel Cover Case Handlebar...

Thanks guys! I got it sorted. I unplugged the battery for 2 minutes and that fixed it completely. I found the pull hatch thing for the boot thanks to this as well, So thanks everyone so much! much appreciated.

Thanks, I'll go try that now and will get back to you later or asap. Much appreciated help.

Hmm thanks. Thought I'd go to gym and sort this out later, gym bag is in my boot... I can't use my remote so decided to push the boot button in my glove box, and guess what ? Nothing.... So even the glove box boot button isn't working. Does that help narrow it down ?

Hmm thought about the battery but my spares don't work either it's weird

Hey guys, I have a holden VX S-Pac Randomly got in my car and started it fine, but saw my immobiliser on and flashing red?? "Is this normal? I never remember it being on while driving ? Then I decided to try and lock my car with me in it and unlock it, It wouldn't lock, I though meh what ever...

Thanks mate!

Well it's not like it's a Cannon, or chevy badges, or fake blow off valves, or anything totally stupid. Just something only I can hear, And it's mainly because I like the sound of a V8, My cars obviously pretty quiet, and it gets boring when all I do is town driving, And I don't always want...

Hey guys, I know it's Wank Bait etc, But I want my car to kind of sound like a V8 inside the car for my own enjoyment while driving, I've done a bit of research on these - SoundRacer | Give your car the sound of a V8 using your car And was almost going to buy one, Until I saw there car...

Thanks mate, I'll prob end up buying it, As long as I know he can make them I can always gets another one at a later date anyway even if this one sells.

Yeah, I didn't mind them but every man and there dog has them in Adelaide, I am not overly keen on them anymore either, they're too "wingy" like, But on the right car it looks awesome! Anyone else able to please tell me ? Just need to know before I commit to buying if I can find them cheaper...

Yeah, I got confused, presumed they where both the same until looked into it a little more, sorry. So is it about right for the price? Too much?

Yeah, that's the VX one though, which is quite a lot different and in my opinion doesn't look as good, He says It's only cheaper because he has More in stock and won't lower the price of the VT one for me. It's this one btw -...

Hey just curious, Is $365 for a HOLDEN VT SENATOR STYLE BOOT SPOILER BOBTAIL a decent price "Unpainted?" How often do they pop up on ebay? I'm hesitating to buy this one, Or wait for one to become cheaper, And is there any other places that either makes copies of them, or if holden sell them for...

Umm that was one of the carline places in town mate, I'm not too sure which one it was now.

Hmm thanks Abba, The exhaust I may be able to do myself, But def not the extractors, I asked a family mechanic, and even he's not interested in doing them, So I'd need to get my local exhaust shop to probably fit it I guess, Isn't there usually welding required for extractors? What will I need...

That's installed by the way, 550 for the lukey extractors installed, and 330 for the exhaust and installed. I can't seem to rly even find extractors around that price and then I'd need to get them installed etc

Stuff on the VX is so much more expensive than it was on my VR, The fibreglass senator bobtail brought, painted, fitted is around $600, Around $300 more than my VR was, 2.5 sports Exhaust is $330, $100 more than my VR, I can't belive the price to do things to this vehicle is compared to my old...

Hey guys, Live in adelaide and have been quoted $560ish for Lukey Extractors and $330 for a 2.5" lukey sports exhaust system. On my VR it only cost me around $230 for the lukey system, Why is the V6 VX so much more ? Anywhere else around the gawler / elizabeth area you guys know about and...

Yeah, thought so ha!

Yeah I noticed that... But I really want my exhaust and extractors done... Not sure if I should buy it or wait... I know Ernie told me before it uses the same bolts which is good, Just hoping it uses all 5, "2 on each side, and then the hole for the plug to go" Still looking at around $400 for...
