Hahahaa, unfortunately not! I wish.. lol, seems I'm not responsible enough to own a car like the Clubby long term. Over the past 10 months I had driven it around 3000kms and now only have 2 points left on my licence. Most of those km's would've been a few long trips as well.

Awww, well one small update... Ill just leave this here.. :whistling

I've got a Tonner, that needs some serious love... But you're too far away, :( Looking killer as always Hak, been following the progress on Facey, love the progress man. Didn't realise Hi_ryder was doing the work tho, stuff legends are made of!

As far as I'm aware if Sam's don't have the info on file, then the only way to tell is to see if it's stamped or engraved on the end of the cam, not really worth doing imo. If it's been in for 30,000kays, anything that could've been a problem would've presented itself already. If it ain't broke...

This.. I've done it pretty much exactly this way numerous times, all with success, just make sure the socket is the correct size, if it's a little too small it can kick sideways, or start to slide up inside the seal, damaging the rubber.

Lol, it's one of those things, I probably won't be able to decide so I'll just do nothing! I do know I've wanted a lumpy ass V8 since I knew what a car was and never actually had a spastic sounding car, so it's a no brainer at this point in time.. I have a nice V8, why not go all out on it...

Yeah man.. It's an bit of a random idea, but the idea of a truck, diesel, lifted, muddies, big and practical.. Well, slightly more practical than the sled, figure I may regret it soon after tho, lol.

Hey smart people, chances are this is in the wrong section, or already been answered a million times, but one more time for the retards please.. Lol Whats the best/easiest way to post pics to your ride thread, I used to use my laptop and photobucket, which was easy enough, but now I'm basically...

So.. Procrastination at its best, still haven't done much to this sled, other than drive it. Lol, But the time has come that changes need to be made, I'm either going to trade this on a Colorado or something alike, or finally cam it and make some changes to it. Checking out Holden tomorrow...

Updates man... Well over due, Good to see you've still got her tho, sexy lil slut she is..

P/M sent.. This still for sale??

Lmao Herron SSV :rofl2: That, is what I'm after! That's exactly how I describe it to people I'm talking to in person, "spastic" for some reason it just sums it up perfectly! (not meaning any offence to anyone). The only reason I'm steering clear of fly cutting is I (myself) don't want to...

RIP Laurie.. Top bloke. Always had time to answer any questions or talk about possibilities on projects.. Never to busy to show you around his shop. Will be missed.

Cheers for the tips guys, spare time is a limited luxury for me unfortunately, but I'm trying to fit in a bit of research here and there..! Heron, is this what you were looking at? Camshaft Package LS3 - 6.2lt VE - GM Motorsport With the little bit of reading I've been doing, it may...

Will check out NAAF re: zorsts, if he does 'custom' orders, that would be sweet.. :D Unsure how good the factory HSV headers are, or if they're any different to any other LS3? Basically after a short, straight system, just to be a pest to society. Something like 2 bits of straight pipe...

Hey Gents, just looking into a cam upgrade for the commodore, stock LS3, M6. Plans are loosely based around the idea of a cam/lifter/retainer upgrade, extractors, straight through exhaust, OTR, tune.. Etc.. Not sure on the amount of information out there, really just started getting serious...

Cheers mate, I actually washed it on Sunday, looks tidy.. ;) Just thinking about a cam for it now, exhaust, otr, etc... Just trying to figure out brands, and suppliers.. :/

Still looking mint as ever Rich!!

:rofl2: Um, I'm not entirely sure, but it stems from working 60+ hours a week and not having some one nagging me to finish it..!! :p

Hell yeah they're as tough as nails..! This things running 20psi boost up it and I ramped the fuel up a bit..! Loves it, been like it for 12 months or so? lol Ahh the good ol' HQ, it's still around, little bit of progress, flat firewall, flat rear end of the cab/more room for subs/seat...

Cheers guys! Just got back from a weekend away up Tamworth, and took the big rig.. Was a nice run for her to stretch her legs a bit!

Just had a look at the catalog and you're right.. The ones I wanted are the SV performance forged alloy wheel. (available on all models) In Satin Graphite. Fckn kents..

Sexxxy Jec'sy! :D Cheers for the kind words mate, means a lot especially knowing shy'a and all the work that's gone into that sexy bitch..! Hahaaa, she does look pretty shiney, it's nuts.. The dark colours are awesome for reflections, but on the flip side an absolute bitch to keep clean and...

Cheers hsv_r8, are those rims on your new beast a thinner spoked design, darker colour/graphite? If so, they're possibly the ones I wanted but Holden used the line "we'd like to keep them for our elite models" so in other words, we're not putting those rims on your base model.. :rofl2:

Cheers bloke! After washing it again today, I think I can safely say white rims are out.. These are bright silver and they're bad enough with brake dust, white would be a bitch to keep clean.. So, if they get painted black could be it.. Cheers Tas, I don't mind them that much, like, they...

Cheers for the honesty mate, realistically they aren't my pick of the bunch I wanted the charcoal rims I think they come on the R8's, or spec'd up models. But couldn't get genuine at the time.. I figure painting them is just one way to try and lessen the 'impact' they have, lol.. Eventually...

^^ Leave the Jelly Beans alone, ;) lmao.. Well, they're alright instead of steel/stockies.. So Ari, whats SITR mean?

Wow.. You put up a thread..? A lot has changed around here..?! :rofl2: I attempted to read all 114 pages, got through 2 pages skipped 100 and read 2, then skipped 10, and well yeah, now I'm here.. Looks sexy as hell, pretty mint colour, mint condition and all! ;)

Cheers Ms Demon, good to be back! ;) Tell me about it! I've been driving a beat up old rodeo around for the last year then got sick of the oil leaks on my driveway and not being able to park on anyone else's driveways, so went and got a new toy. Funny thing is I fixed the oil leaks on the...

Looks killer mate, awesome job. I love how hours upon hours - weeks and weeks worth of work can be summed up in a matter of half a dozen photos.. Doesn't clarify the amount of work that really goes into them.

Cheers mate, as long as you can overlook the shitty quality/poor lighting Iphone pics, and filthy dirty interior, Ok..! ;) Agree'd, as soon as I saw it in person it reminded me of "Panther Mica" the old VR/VS Calais colour, I used to love that colour at the time. ^^ Thats a Lambo I...

I will stand by, eagerly awaiting a response...

Wooooo..! Reading through the last fifteen pages or so I've missed out on, I was hoping to see a glimmer of light as to the colour choice, (maybe even a painted bay?! but nope :p) glad to finally know. ;) Should looks sweet as, so many hours on this engine bay can definitely say its all been...

^^ DRL's and headlights on at the same time.

Rims look sweet mate, think they're similar to a work mates, on yours do the studs/nuts stick out further on the rears aswell? Pretty nice beginnings of the boot install as well. Any more progress on that? Very clean, nice height too.

Think those rules must be out of date, or have more to them? Factory Gen-F Clubsport has DRL, which stay on when headlights are activated. Hard to believe a brand new car would be made so it doesn't comply with current ADR's.

Yes, because nipping up half a dozen screws isn't worth the money saved on petrol...

So, just asking, if you've never seen it done, how would anyone know if it was possible? Why don't you try it and post the results? But, there are positives to de-stroking, albeit, against my initial opinion. Lighter rotating mass. Get the thing to rev. + Boost = Fun times. From what I can...

Hahaa, cheers man, I'm a fan. And yep Turkey ;) No love for the Barina, it never gets any love. (a now ex's car) Poor things running a stocky on the front passenger side, think she hit a gutter or something, and half ripped the rear bumper off.. :/ That's why she never drove this thing. Or...
