    Exhaust...

    Will definitely look into the hotdog replacement. As for keeping the rear resonator - I need to get one, the backfiring when gearing down is a bit much... Luckily my system can unbolt from the diff back, easy fix

    Exhaust...

    Ive got the full hurricane system 4 into 1 extractors, 4" 200cpsi high flow cats, no resonator at the back... 2.5" system... If you want a deeper note then definitely get extractors

    Exhaust...

    Lol, I was tempted to go the dual 3" all the way apparently it sounds deeper - but im getting old myself lol so chickened out... don't get me wrong 2.5" does sound nice, but it could be just that little bit better !!

    Exhaust...

    Hi Guys, Recently got a full hurricane exhaust system for my VZ, its twin 2.5" from the engine back... its not quite loud enough though :( Question is, has anyone thrown twin 3" from the diff back ? Wondering if it'd be a straight bolt on, as my diff back is just bolted on and the 3"...

    VZ SV6 [Tail Lights] - What are your thoughts?

    Yeh aftermarket ones look crappy, you could go like me and tint them yourself if you like that look (most people on here dont)... and get LED bulbs.

    Tail Light Tinting

    Cant believe I'm typing this out for the retards - but here goes... Man, read the first post on this thread, i asked if people could not crap on about the laws of tinting, all i asked was - would led lighting get through the tints better... So... Me saying dont bring up the laws means either a)...

    Tail Light Tinting

    Nobody really cares about how often you can quote ADR... Its really quite sad that you can rave on and on about it... Dont you have anything better to do other than quote ADR ?? Its the weekend, get out there and live a little

    Tail Light Tinting

    Makes me wonder, do you guys follow every law to the tee... pulling up regulations and whatnot, have you ever gone faster than 110 on the freeway, ever not completely stopped at a stop sign etc... Man the amount of crapping on about laws... Pretty much anything that is not a direct factory...

    Tail Light Tinting

    Lol, i got my sv6 tinted 5% all around no questions asked and the vy 15% all around... 5% is a bit much, looks awesome but visibility is pretty poor, 15% is perfect can see at all times... 35% is just plain ghey - being that low why even bother to tint

    Tail Light Tinting

    Just checked out your page, looks like your tint % is similar to mine, ill get those high output globes too, how many LEDs were in each globe ? Done a light test on my car, the globes are visible, but i dont think theyd quite reach the 200m mark... Wont have to last long anyways, Ill probably be...

    Tail Light Tinting

    Now thats just a low blow :( But, been thinking maybe i should remove it - what would be the go to get em back to stock appearance lots of sanding till the spray is gone and then clearcoat to shine it up and cut and polish !?

    Tail Light Tinting

    The point of this thread is do leds penetrate tints better than normal globes, not about 3 points of brake lights, do most you people read by looking at pictures ? Simple question but not many could stay on topic...

    Tail Light Tinting

    Thought about that - but the tint on the SS lights is minimal, not worth the extra cash IMO Lol too funny, why are you so against tinted tail lights ? Some say they look awesome, and others have your opinion... Anyways, heres a pic of my tail lights taken today...

    Tail Light Tinting

    Your car looks nice as it is man... but yep a bit of tint would be nice... uhm apparently the secret to a nice glossy finish is apply about 5 layers of clear coat and then cut and polish it with a machine, i dont have an electric buffer so it only half came out, ill show a pic of mine tomorrow...

    Tail Light Tinting

    At night it shows through the tint easy, but daytime its just black with minimal light... Looks mad on a vy/vz, wish i could've gone just a bit darker though...

    Tail Light Tinting

    Before reading this, if your gonna carry on about the legalities and ramble on about the law - yes I already know, so dont bother answering. Recently I decided to go ahead and tint the tail lights (about 3 coats) using VHT nightshades and clearcoat finish... Obviously having a tint its going...

    Exhaust Question

    lol thatd make it insanely loud... then id have no mufflers only a resonator... sounds like that could be a plan, good idea
  20. SH.00.MA

    Exhaust Question

    I had no resonator before, and it was loud as hell due to the high flow cats... but the resonator has made it just a lil bit too quiet, i like the rasp and drone lol, but just not so loud... It was louder than my dads v8 with 3 inch exhaust from the block back lol

    Exhaust Question

    Hi Guys, My current exhaust setup on my sv6 is extractors, 2 1/2 inch pipe all the way back, 2x200cpsi cats, 1 sports muffler and 1 7 inch resonator i think... anyways, the resonator has made it just a little bit too quiet, ive lost the gurgle when the car gears down and also it doesnt sound...

    interior swap

    I take it you mean you want to replace your console which has a/c controls, to a clubby one with c/c controls ? If so, thats what im in the process of doing... I have been told that you will need a dremel and cut out the a/c controls and put them onto your clubby centre console with fibreglass...

    Engine Revs

    Its normal as far as a VZ goes, get a cat back exhaust or something if you wanna get moving a bit faster when you put your foot down, the thing is choked up with 3 mufflers !!! Piss 2 of them off :)

    Fully Lowered

    I cbf dealing with them, so i went and bought a pair of 225/35/20 for the front... drives fines and looks like i have almost no tyre :) one thing though, did you or anyone else remove any of that plastic guard crap on the inside of the guards, looks like it takes up too much room, not sure whats...

    Fully Lowered

    It was ozzy tyres, they reckon the 245s scrubbed non stop when they tested it, and they said they had to cut the rear bumper a bit to make the 225s work... Very odd i know, but im also no expert
  36. SH.00.MA

    Fully Lowered

    Uhm recently my suspension stuffed up @ 164,000ks, so i got a new lowered one, boge shocks and sssl rear and ssl front, i did have 245s on the back and 225 on the front (on 20s), now that it has been lowered all guards are rolled and the rear bumper has a chunk cut out to prevent scrubbing...

    Knocking, front end

    Im getting the same problem, the left strut just turns freely, but the right is solid as... how do you tighten them ? hold the top part and tighten the bottom or just get a socket on it and tighten, if its the latter nothing happens just keeps turning

    Hypothetically Speaking

    Well i didnt end up disconnecting the A/C, just cut the C/C controls out roughly and the A/C fit right in, looks better with the SSZ console, cup holders and binnacles, the dodgy cutting will make me dremel and glass it properly asap... Sorry i cant put up a pic atm, no access to a pc
