might sound stupid, but have u got traction control on coz myn does the same its a new lsd i just put in, and my traction control is locked on:S

i understand what all you fellas are sayin about the airbags in steering wheels and safety and that but if some1 wants to remove there stock steering wheel why not its there choice, i personally dont like stock wheels coz there chunky and oversized, i drove around in my old vs for 3ish years and...

it can be done, see it around all the time i would try on a shitty bumper from the reckers first though

Installed mine on my 5L the other day and im happy with it i had to grind down a couple of mills just because i was being fusy with how i wanted the box postioned but each to there own i think its really good defintly works well with MACE's b&p TB's. Thumbs up Steve you'll be seein me again in...

i had a similiar problem, one of my leads wasnt pushed all the way on

'Exhaust is smashed almost closed' that could be the main reason the car runs so ruff..?

Yeah like vn_v6 said check leads, oils etc. just give it a major service first then see what you think from there..hope its all good, effin barsteds!!

Sorry to hear about your car mate, i feel for ya all that hard work and money down the drain, id be checkin the transmission/gearbox because if they were young like you were saying in your other thread they probs held it in 1st or didnt no how to drive and were ridin the clutch like no tommorow...

yeah and i agree with that. and no i wasnt a poor quality driver, and i will admit ive done stupid **** in my cars but never put ne1 else but myself at risk. all im saying is if old drivers vision starts goin, hearing, reflexs etc. then take them off the road coz there a big risk to all drivers.

yeah im wiv you on that but still old people are the worst dont now if you ever heard about that old b@#ch that pulled out to over take in sunbury down romsey lancefield road and ended up killin 2 young kids and a mother, and 2 years ago one of my best mates was killed walkin to the milkbar by...

in my experience i wouldnt use spring compressors there effin dangerous, i used exhaust U bolts instead much safer they cant slip off the spring when you've got it compressed..

good they should do that here, always causing accidents and holding up traffic

also 'jas98' those b&m stage 2 shift kits, are harsh i had one put in my old vs and even when i was drivin grandpa style it shifted pretty heavy but i found that it wasnt a firm/smooth shift as you get from transgo stage 2. id go transgo anyday

true that i spoke to a tranny builder and he says installing a stage 2 doesnt make the box any stronger only makes it drop and shift harder when flooring it, he also stated what you did and that if theres something wrong in ur box it will go wrong a fair bit quicker (mainly because you start...

yeah custom interior is definetly on me mind but what colour? lol any suggestions ne1?

good on ya mate i couldnt find how to do it no where, legend lol

yeah true that, they quoted me at around the 1500 mark thats for italian leather front and back, then i think it was 300$ extra for material to do the parcel shelf and door trims. have to put some thought into it first. i wana get a few things done to the car engine wise. extractors, hi flow...

i was thinkin maybe gettin the interior that ive got now done by 'proseat' or sellin it and gettin velour berlina interior, any suggestions?

yeah mate thas what i meant.. its immaculate not one stain not one rip, tear etc

Been a while but i finally got around to taking a couple of pics of the guts, let me know what u think i dont like the interior any1 know what i could get for it if i was to sell it?

Got my 70mm TB off MACE the other day, installed it and car idle high to start with now its fine shift points are a bit crummy but definitly got more throttle response. Overall im happy with the TB. Thanks MACE

or berlina..

My VT was doin that not too long ago it was a spark plug lead wasnt plugged in all the way made mine have a lumpy idle goin up and down, has your brother changed the throttle body?

yeah thas right, its not worth doing but it takes a bit of glare out whens the suns shining, cops just want to c what were doing inside the car even though atleast half there undercover cars are blacked out

I drive a 5L on my my last year of ps ive been pulled up a few times cops never seem to care, and its not like they cant hear the burblin v8..:P

I think the feds just cant catch the murders, drug dealers, rapist's, pedofiles etc so they decide to test peoples effin window tint, ive got legal tint on both of my cars so im sweet where as my old lady just brought a brand spankin XR5 Turbo Zetec, and got tested and turnt out that it was...

Clean car mate, gotta love the VT's, lovin the red ss interior too XD

lol yeah thats why i said might sound stupid, but then again i popped a trans cooler hose at the front so it was a bit dirty inside the box, but its my pride and joy so i like spendin time wiv her:P and makin her look and feel clean haha

i cleaned my one already purely for the fact if u stay on top of cleaning every time it gets a bit dirty it will almost always be clean:D might sound stupid though lol

2 Days for me but im in VIC and so is the he, id say 4days max after payment anywhere in Oz

ive checked the pan and theres no leaks there its coming from the front end but its not the tranmission cooler hoses and its not the pan ive followed, degreased hoses and still found nothing on pipes and 100% its tranny fluid:S think ill be taking it to the auto mechanic 2moro lol coz its pissin...

Where could it be leakin from now, coz ive replaced all hoses and cant source the leakL:S

if you over fill will the tranny leak excess fluid?

correct me if im wrong but it depends on ur transmission on how much fluid it would take, i just had to refill mine after blowing a trans cooler hose and it took about 3l but if u have dropped all urs then probs take about 5-7L's. yeah start ur car let it run for a 5-10mins then fill up by the...

Thats sick, nice work. i wana charge my 5L...

Any1 know if it matters if trans cooler rubber hose is touching the radiator or the hose clamp on it? Any info appriciated..

My VT gets me too 100k pretty quick, think ill have to time it on the w/e see what it really does..
