    VE HVAC actuator replacement.

    Hey guys, I have just replaced two of these modules in my ssv wagon and done the relearn. The top drivers side one is working fine (that screw was a real bitch) but the one on the passenger side that wasn't working now moves the plastic levers one way(to heat) but won't go to cool. Any ideas. If...

    My wishlist, whats yours?

    You gonna be stuck on the short shift mate for the manual 6spd behind the alloytec. The ones out of the V8 gearboxes don't fit and are completely different. May have to get something custom machined. I like that boot install. Still seems very practical.

    New Front Speaker Selection Help

    I run the same focal splits in mine. Sounds awesome. Really clear. Same with comments from 2LOUD2OLD I would keep away from Alpine for the speakers, my mate traded his Type-R splits in for Rockford's cause they didn't sound right. But again like others it's all up to your ears. And i'd like...

    Sub and amp install | how to

    My power cable runs up and across the engine bay and through a small grommet behind the passenger side strut tower. There is a large grommot with part of the engine loom in there and then there is another grommet a little lower.

    window rattle when volume turned up?

    The product you want is called bailey channel and it goes in the channels on each side of the window where they run up and down. In older cars this starts to harden up and create rattles. It can be a prick of a job though. Probably require taking window out sometimes.

    HELP getting DVD deck out

    Haven't had a good look at the VT-VX stereo, but they mave have installed it with the original head unit brackets and bolted them to the side of the dvd unit. Therefore you may have to remove the surrounding trim to get it out, not just simply stick the keys in and pull.

    Maybe posting what gear you have might get a better answer. We could probably drum up a step by step guide.

    Been having issues with my stereo draining my battery and the occasional headlight dimming while playing music that has a bit of bass. Looking at holmart.com.au and they have a "VZ Police pack 120Amp alternator" for the alloytec. Just wondering if anyone has one of these and would it help a...

    How's the PS3 as an entertainment hub?

    From firmware version 2.10 I think it was (nearly 12months ago) the PS3 can now play DivX natively. And you can also get other programs to run on your pc to do on the fly conversion to the PS3. I just converted everything I had that wasn't DivX into DivX

    Might just try 3.08, presuming the original ones are 2.89's

    diff gears

    Is there a diff gear stepping that is in between 3.08 and 3.46 for my Manual SV6. I think 3.46 would make it too undrivable in peak hour traffic.

    What are these pins?

    So I assume you got it working. From faint memory the orange are the power for the windows. Black is earth. Pink or grey, can't quite remember is the power delay wire. The one that allows you to wind the windows up with the ignition off for a little while.
