What's a good price? I took mine to a proper auto electrician, I could get one from $150 up on eBay but he said they can be hit and miss. I was happy to do that except I had to pay him to remove and install it - apparently some you can get the stator off some models but my 07 ute there was...

Holy moly 162 pages! I read page one, what on earth did you do to the thing?! Will work my way through bits of the thread (have a SSV '07 ute so there's bound to be some good info in here. I had to buy the 3 plastic pieces of the sailplane (rear cab parts) and will have to get them all painted...

Ok so going by the info on the official site it looks like the battery is T S (totally sealed) so no vent hose necessary, the way I'm reading it anyway

Hi, so upon reading the post in the attached screenshot I thought water could get into the cab? I replaced the window drains but noticed if they poke up at all the water will not go down the tubes. Also I noticed my ute doesn't have the same grommet drains, I think they mention an inch, mine...

Screenshot of someone mentioning drain into cab

Ok so I just threw out the original battery vent hose I've now realised, it must've been disconnected or originally plugged into the rear passenger wall to the tray (is this even a thing?) Mechanic and battery guys said I didn't need one so it didn't even cross my mind that was what it may have...

Update 2 - so the error has started again, the rear wheels were in the flood water so I'm buying 2 rear sensors (googling seems to think this is the most common reason why now, maybe it's just as per build up more knowledge, I'm not sure. The battery is new though lol (well, a year old I guess)...

Hey mate, long shot as neither of us have been on here for a bit but do you still do 4 foot cabinets for fish tanks for $350?

I told them to wash it a few weeks ago and a hosing produces a few water drops on the metal part that the door closes in to. the bit in the pics with the red line squiggles in the first pic lol only the car wash sprayed it in over the plastic

It started happening right after someone pulled the rubber door trim off the cab section while replacing the A pillar trim, so I was hoping pulling that off again and pushing it back on firmly would do the trick, so i'll do that, and start on your list. It was hard to tell because when i open...

Hi, I've got a slight leak when it rains and when i go through a car wash I get about half a cup of water dribbling onto the passenger side doorwell and looks like it creeps across the plastic. Anyone know what seal might be causing this? The windscreen has been replaced, so Im wondering if...

Mine squeaked for a bit - bought a silicon spray lube and lay on my back in the footwell then sprayed one squirt up there covering the top of the pedal/spring whatever's up there. Worked well and has been silent since, might be worth a shot. Cheers

Hi guys, I have an 07 SS ute with twin 3" pipes. I am interested in purchasing a set of rear mufflers only to change up the sound, a set of defilipo, redback, something different to hurricane or xforce etc if anyone has a used quality set Northside Brisbane Happy to meet up to compare and...

Yeah I am ready to accept the V8 will spin a bit before getting going - I really like the SS utes. My WRX does 4.8 0-100. I was just disappointed that the V8 needed so much winding up, the turbo I understand needing time but the auto V8 (IMO) kind of killed the whole torque experience. I am...

Hi all. I am looking at buying a VS - VY V8 ute (I had another thread about that here see bottom of post). Anyway I test drove a VY SS with 158k's on it. It was definitely down on power compared to my WRP10 Rex which disappointed me. I thought it would be more brutal I guess. However I...

LOL I meant the Camaro, we make it. :( Cost has been a major issue for Camaro. But GM sources say entry level versions will retail from about $21,000. (IN THE US) For us - a different story.

Wondering what you guys think is best for 5.7L engine? Anyone have experience/sound/power stats? Cheers

Glad you like it. Can't help you though. What I can say is we pay $130,000 for the same US car that costs $30,000 over there, thanks to our import laws. All I can gain from this post is: our import laws are fuct. Sorry if that doesn't help. I like the Camaro and new Challenger (we build...

I agree. I like the old V8 noise. I don't like the older body shape though. How easy is it to get good power out of the VU engine? If I get an exhaust should I get twin 2.5" pipes, or single 3"?

^Thanks. 've been doing that. Looked at a VU series2, 215k on the clock. The car blew white and slightly blue smoke when revved, so I didn't even bother test driving. Haven't found any older ones yet - will look again on Sat. I've noticed that there aren't many VU V8's at dealers in QLD, just...

No luck huh.

Hi guys. First post here. I currently have an 05 WRX and I'm thinking of selling it to buy a ute. I only do about 5K km per year as I train to work, so I thought I'd rather have a car that car carry things. I'm tossing up between spending 5-10K on an older V8 ute (VN-VS) or spending around...
