    407RWKW VS Commodore 2JZ-GTE

    I appreciate the amount of work that has gone into it, but curious to know why you chose a vs commodore to put it in? Surely some nicer looking options were available ? Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk

    [Question] Will a vl redback exhaust fit a vk.

    judging by the above pictures from ebay, i would say they wont bolt on. All it takes is a little bit of difference and it wont line up. but for $300 you cant go wrong for one with a warranty. I love the redback on mine, sounds amazing

    Greetings from Critical Jim.

    Look identical to my lukey extractors. The flange to the cat looks very similar, and looks to be at the correct angle too. Good find! Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk

    Interesting viewing........

    just watched the whole video. Shocking some of that footage. But as always there are 2 sides to the story. Yes you will always get rotten apples in the bunch, and the entire US police force is a big bunch. But there are just as many (if not more) police who do follow the law. I certainly know...

    Ridiculously stupid question about tires

    Lots of good info in here. When i first got my car it had old hard thread and I did Aqua-plane, wasn't a fun experience. Makes sense that the tread pattern removes water from under the tyre. A lot of technology goes into tyre manufacturing today I suppose as there is a lot to take into...

    Ridiculously stupid question about tires

    mmmhmmm im getting this relief-like feeling because i understand now.. as you can tell I know almost nothing about tyres, but i do nderstand the concept of hard rubber/no grip and soft rubber/good grip

    Ridiculously stupid question about tires

    I was hoping for an answer like this.. with mention on tyre compounds and stuff. So over time the rubber actually changes i suppose? so it isnt as soft and grippy as new

    suspension!

    Radial Tuned Suspension Independent Rear Google those two. Radial tuned suspension means nothing really, they all had that, means its setup to suit radial tires.

    Ridiculously stupid question about tires

    Ok. so dont judge me but... I have never been able to grasp this problem. When you get a brand new tire if has lots of chunky thick tread and a relatively complex looking tread pattern (on an average midrange tire) plus it gives good grip. As it slowly wears down the thread gets less and...

    Will 50" plasma fit on Backseat of VP sedan?

    You can lay plasmas down completely flat as long as your not moving it. Its the thin piece of glass that can flex when transported that causes the issues We actually had a pallet of 50's come in that were all sitting on top of each other flat. from the factory Took one out, worked fine and sold...

    Will 50" plasma fit on Backseat of VP sedan?

    hey mate. where i work i spend all day putting tv's into cars. From my experience 50" wont fit, 46" boxes seem to be the max in a commodore back seat. Panasonic boxes are slightly smaller than some of the others so you can give it a go but expect to take it out and rest it on the seat. good...

    why bother charging an RB30 when the market for turbo equipment is in such great suply. turbo will make more power and be easier and more reliable. If you want to supercharge something then dont use an RB

    Caliper Covers

    I mean that they could melt all over your brakes and cause issues with braking. I am not a fan of them. You look like a clown with little brembo brakes

    Caliper Covers

    By caliper covers do you mean the plastic ones that sit over the calipers ? Like the brembo ones on eBay? If so, those who have no idea what they are looking at they might look alright. But everyone who has a mild interest in cars may think it looks a bit tossy Also, there has been some...

    VL indicators dont cancel

    Got nothing to do with the indicator stalk. When you take the steering wheel off and use the indicator you see a little metal clip that holds the indicator on/off. I'm not 100% sure but I believe the spring attaches to that. If the spring has come loose then it won't cancel. Worth looking for...
