    HSV headers on VE Redline? Is it worth it?

    Can get my hands on some HSV headers and cats. Would it be worth it putting them on my SSV as a affordable upgrade? Anyone know if you get a better note or performance. I know from the cat back is the same as SS but not the headers and cats. Thanks all. Can always count on opinions from JC.

    Tyres - Yokohama S221 or Bridestone RE050

    i had a VE SS ute on RE50A's and found YES they are definitely a performance tyre as compared to Yoki 221's that i have on my Series II VE SS sedan, however i think they do save more fuel and wear slower...got 23000 max on my ute with RE50A's and thats with rotating, pressure at 38psi and...

    Petrol expected to hit $2 a Litre

    what i wanna know is why the fark is E85 still 20 cents p/litre less than unleaded and the fact that 15% of it is petrol only...its a farking scam....My car can use it and i wont simply because it is actually the same cost to run 98...

    Does anyone else find the VEII manual weird to drive?

    I used to have an Omega VE manual ute and found that the gearbox was very rubbery, clutch was fine but 1st to second was very awkward...and the V6 has a different box to the V8.

    My new VE II sv6 ute (phantom) :)

    hey rusty car looks horn mate!!..one thing? are they Series 1 SSV seats cos they are black with red inserts and not grey with red inserts...just curious...looks great though

    yet another delay!!!

    SSV used to be different to SV6 in series 1....Dont buy their bull#### Rusty...Mate ask for more than tinted windows!!!...that only costs them around $100 for a ute...how about cargo dividers and a genuine tool box that sits in the back of the ute....and I'd reccomend you complain to holden's...
  20. M

    yet another delay!!!

    Rusty may I ask which dealer? Ive bought cars from Brighton Holden and Ralph D'Silva and they are disgustingly careless and unprofessional... When i picked up my car i stopped down the road to fill up and noticed a 40cm long deep scratch on the boot!!!...had to get re-sprayed!!!...stuffs me how...
  21. M

    yet another delay!!!

    you poor bugger mate...i feel your pain..there is no difference in leather anymore cos sv6 has same seats as SS....i would push them for more stuff since they faaarked you around so much...dealers give the Holden brand a bad name...they are a bunch of non professional retards
