Hey guys, I have putting this off for a few years purely because I can't be arsed following up the options, car has now hit 160k KMs so I figure it's about due. My redline has fairly significant sandblasting on the windshield and I'm curious as to know whether others have had this replaced...

Very slow on the reply here, but thank you all for the insights, went back to my tuner with a few changes and managed to pick up a few bits of information. Replaced the hsv340 headers and factory cats with xforce 1 7/8 headers with 100cel cats and replaced the have midsection with S2 bi modals...

Torque sitting at about 475 (W)(nm) my brain doesn't know how to translate this.. unfortunately tuner had left for the day when I picked up the car so I didn't get a chance to ask questions. But yes it's a 6.0

By no means expecting numbers like indeed on Facebook.. 350kw from a OTR, pipes and stick seems a bit happy. 280-290 was where I was kind of expecting the numbers to be as well, need to take it back to look at the warm start so I'll ask a few questions then.

Not by a massive margin if I'm honest. Partner says she can feel a difference but she's been in it maybe a handful of times this year. Given the two tunes were done by the same tuner on the same dyno I expected the numbers to be on the lower side, but just on +10% for a cam seems low

Howdy Had my S1 redline tuned about 2 years ago with OTR and hsv340 headers into HSV catback which resulted in 245ish kw. Just had VCM532 added with DOD delete and landed on 269.2kw. Due to some miscommunication we didn't change the cats and still sitting on the standard HSV cats, but numbers...

Anyone running the above setup? Currently have 340 headers with hsv mid and Baillie tips, looking at a cam later in the year.

Have the same on my car minus the high flow cats on an L77, got 245kw up from 212kw I think. Might need to look into the cats and triple check mid section diameter.

Cars parked up for the next few weeks hopefully but will suss it out. Never had an issue with it and probably only adjusted it a dozen times in nearly 3 years. Thanks for the advice fellas, will report back when diagnosed

Ambient air temp is working fine, I'll check sensors when this weather passes

Might have a look in the settings, I know there's a section for cabin air quality etc. Not sure what they may have touched under the bonnet given it was just OTR and infils, I'll see if I can notice anything loose.

Right, so odd one.. Car went in for OTR and tune mid week (made 244rwkw for those wondering), and since then the car has been great. But I have noticed the HVAC now seems incapable to maintain temperature. I think I've had it on auto and 23 degrees for the last year which has always been...

Thats the plan mate, big difference between bilstien b8s and monroe gt in cost and performance so after peer reviews

Mate you're focussing on the wrong number, as everyone has said your 298rwkw means nothing without knowing the baseline. If the baseline from Sam's read 245kw then your gain of 53rwkw is compareable to everyone elses relative tunes. As a few people have said there are multiple factors that...

I'll jump in and state I have no idea, but as my car has done 130k I figure new socks would go with the new springs

Might give the guys at shockworks a call, will be round the corner from them next week for otr and tune. Warrick I heard the FSD struts are fairly compliant compared to FE3, how much of a drop are the eibach springs?

As the title suggests, looking for some options and recomendations for shortened shocks. Will be looking to put SSL or equivalent springs in my SSVR wagon. Car has done 130k kms so I wouldn't want to push my luck with the stock shocks surviving too long wth lowered springs. Have seen the deal...

Ah right, makes sense. Hard to find reviews from others running the konis in a VF so appreciate the insight

Hmm disappointing, wonder if it's a combination of fsd shocks and those springs causing a soft ride. Ride height wouldn't be an issue for me but I'll have a look into it, cheers!

@426Cuda keen to know roughly a month later, how're you finding the konis and spring combo. My redline is up around 130k and looking to be lowered shorty, if the reviews looking positive ill be looking to take advantage of the deal before end of the month

Picked up a S2 berlina sedan that was too cheap too pass up, however I think I've found the reason why. The entire back seat and carpet has had something spilt that resembles wet aviation gasket and honey. My options are to pull the seats out and clean the carpet with a wet/dry, or pull it all...

Sorry for the thread dig guys, what would we expect to be paying for a set of rear cans these days?

Recently picked up a VY S2 Berlina as a daily, steering is quite a bit heavier than my VF and old VT's and in lower speeds I've noticed that the spokes have separated. How do you go about removing and or fixing them so they're joined correctly. Also any options to fix radio controls picking up...

But in saying that, if my last alignment was set to .81° variance in caster favouring LHS and is now .30° favouring LHS could that not be reason for the car tracking to the left. My assumption would be that having +1.0° variance in caster would cause the car to track to the right?

I'm going to make an uneducated guess that going from 0.81° variance in caster to .30° is what's creating the slight pull to the left. I might also get the toe in / camber addressed as I have some severe feathering on the outside edge of the tyres

Yeah for sure, it's odd though as it's not a constant pull to the left. I'll fight it for maybe 5 mins and it'll come good for a few then go back to a severe pull into the gutter. Image is from my tyre/alignment shop - this was done December 2017 when I had new rear tyres fitted. Image is from...

So as expected, car pulls to the left, got them to print off a copy of the alignment measurements. Will compare it to how it was done 18 month's ago. Also pretty sure there's faeces on the door card, might be dirt but didn't pass the smell test, taste test is next!

Received my notice in early January and called immediately, earliest available was today. Based on this thread I should be checking alignment, most likely excessive pull to the left and faeces, also likely excessive inside the car. Wish me luck.

Recently started teaching my partner to drive and never realised how much of a pain finding my driving position is Has anyone put a memory seat into a s1 vf?

Trying to find them is harder than finding the 340 headers :( Might see what other options I have

So had the headers fitted Monday just gone, definitely feel a bit more pull through the mid rev range, a bit more mechanical noise inside the car as well. Rear mufflers aren't doing it any justice now, gen f hsv rears. I know some of the vf2 mufflers have flared flanges, but do any off the shelf...

Been looking at exhaust bits for months, eBay is dead, Gumtree is touch and go but Facebook market place seems to be best value and turn over. Curiosity must ask, where are you located, have you got a price in mind?

When you say quieter, is that compared to the standard log headers? Either case, picking up a set with cats for 300 later today. What improvements did you find in changing yours over?

Have found some 340 headers and cats that have come up for a reasonable price, before committing I wanted to check I'm not wasting my time. Headers are from a Maloo, no issues fitting to a wagon? Has anyone got a video/audio clip on 340 headers paired with hsv mid section with bimodal cans on a...

Ah fantastic, from memory were the clips spaced wide or narrow?

Recently picked up a set of genuine smart shades as I have a little one in the back, I cannot for the life of me get the shades to seat properly in the window as it will either shimmy up when I put the window up or pop out whilst putting the window down. What am I doing wrong, anyone have them...

Due to upgrade my rear tyres shortly, slow leak and a 2000km round trip may shorten my timeframes. Looking for options to replace a 275/35/19. Currently have Continental ContiSport 6, phenomenal tyres but at $430-$440 it's a little bit pricey considering I've only got 22k from them. Have been...

So as of lately, gradually getting worse my car has started to surge as the fuel got down low, initially it was doing it when the fuel light came on, well thats when i first noticed it, usually dont let it get too close to 1/4 tank but recently it has been hitting 1/4 or 100kms to empty and...
