thats not the only place they will rust. ive pulled my liner out and found mud and crap down in the sills in front of the rear wheel arches,took ages to clean out,3 others i know of have had the same problem and if nothings done to fix it theres gonna be a few rusty utes getting around real soon

in all fairness though i drive past their yard on my way to work and they appear to sell them no problem as theres allways different ones on display. yes he does have the odd sv6 there, ive even seen an ss or 2 but they are 12mth old ex chasers- ss's- with a million k's on them. mates daughter...

1. they are a member on this forum. 2. not much chance of mistaking yours,your in perth,they are in brisbane. 3. now whats wrong with hot pink wheels on a black omega? throw some hot pink stripes down the sides and thats one humdinga of a car!-yes i jest. 4. they are every bloody where here...

yeah thanks guys for the info. i figured that holden might interpret what troy described. just doesn't look physicly possible to stick another 5 speakers (factory ones) in the cabin. thanks for the pic ssv cory,its basicly what i have in mind too. the centre dash speaker in this one has me...

heres a pic of the ute i'm looking at;

yes mate its my12.5, im probably wrong as to what type of speaker goes where,the centre dash speaker in this one definately isnt the crappy one,i stuck my ear to it and all i could hear was bass? definately a bass sound from the rears too so your right there. wouldn't mind knowing where the...

in the utes yeah,well... oval shaped anyway,prob 5x7's

hi all, doing a bit of research on one of these utes with a view to buying one. as the title says there seems to be a bit of confusion as to how many speakers there are in this model,so far ive found 7,-doors x2,dash 2x tweeters,1 sub in the centre where the old crappy one usually sits,2x 6x9's...

no the rear bar has nothing to do with height or the front for that matter. pedders will tell you anything as you've probably guessed,your in brisbane, go see fulcrum at stafford,ask for barry,if anybody can sort it he can,no bullshit honest advice.he has set up a few of my cars and a few of my...

if that includes headers yes thats about right,no headers about 10/20rwkw less.not a real big fan of varex muffs,heard stories of them rusting out with early versions anyway.maybe better now?

thats about on the money,chuck some headers on for a little bit more maybe 10/20 rwkw. your arse in the seat is the best judge though! lol

ive got one on my ute.phone,reception etc.. is fine.just make sure you get one that works properly as theres a lot of **** on ebay,carbon fibre ones and full steel ones such as mine work well. this one- Silver BEE STING antenna aerial for Holden VE commodore,Calais,Omega,HSV | eBay is the...

thats scary!! a little bit of metal can turn into a big bloody bill! i'd be hotfooting it to be fixed,i also agree that changing the oil will do SFA... owning 4 LS powered cars , VU,VX,VY and my VE has taught me that.

when it falls apart and you cant find anything for it or you pay big money for that stainless strip that fell off because all of them stainless strips fell off and are hard to find now eg.. my HG gts munro had a stainless strip that ran across the boot lid above the tail lights and 99% of them...

copped a bad batch of fuel earlier this year,$615 later i had a nice clean system again. i kept the sender,pump,filter and a sample of the fuel and marched into the servo where i got it,after some gentle threats they came to the party and reimbursed me,i consider myself lucky as a lot of servos...

those early carnivals were absolute ****, boxes blow up etc.. as stated above go and sit in on a dealer auction and get a feel for what cars go for. you wont find them much cheaper there and especially now as the arse has fallen out of the market for bigger cars. you will get an absolute bargain...

yep i still do!,i make them highlight it on the job card-DO NOT WASH!, when i brought my ute i simply said "not interested in the ming mole just chuck some plates on it thanks". i agree whole heartedly with tinny and toey,ive been in and out of the detail game for years and have seen some...

i have superpros as well.the factory rubber ones are absolute rubbish,mine were stuffed at 6000km in my first VE ute, in this one (my second) i did them straight away.the VE does'nt suffer the same ride harshness as earlier models and is much better for it

1. no unless you tune the engine 2.late ser1/early ser 2 had body seal issues around the rear screen and directly under the cabin,have'nt heard of any lately so maybe sorted now 3. dont buy a v8 if your worried about fuel consumption,its a v8 not a v6 which aint much better. 4.ser2 has the...

what year is it? early to mid 09 builds had oil pump problems,even a healthy box will flare a bit ,the delay is the torque abuse mode in the box which sort of works by speed matching the next gear, thats not excactly how it works but is a simplified explanation. i'd be hot footing it to a shop...

here you go ; NVU, Genuine Holden parts to suit Holden Commodore VR,VS,VT,VX,VY,VZ,Monaro,Statesman,Utes and HSV

you will find someone mate,we get requests all the time for weddings on this forum and usually get heaps of offers,so im sure you'll be fine

about $2800 12 mths ago,thats with khumo ku31 tyres though, you will get them cheaper with cheaper tyres obviously but speedy wheels are a bit dearer because of the warranty they give- 5yrs on finish,lifetime structural, that and ive had first hand experiance with them regarding warranty, very...

Yes 45 on the front,51 on the rear

try this calculator its pretty accurate ;Online Wheel & Tyre Fitment calculator. Offset, Tyre stretch and Rolling Radius calculator

they are identical,the ss may sit a tad lower in the front only because of the engine but thats it

i might get the ocassional kiss on the inner guard but thats it.the offset clears the guard edge.if you look carefully you can see what i mean

sv6guy-no plenty of room,the guard sits about half inch above tyre, nve-69, they are a 51 offset,about 4 or 5 inches of lip,they are speedy cheetahs 20x10 rear,20x8.5 front for your info and yes i love them compared to the black wheels i had on it

"sigh" and now for twenty millionth time lol heres my ute,20x10 rear, 275',ssl kings,no guard rolling.now for f**ks sake go and buy the bloody wheels! geeez!! disclaimer; dont throw your wet kleenex at me,my attitude is in jest

just got myself a set of these the price is for F+R for anybody interested ;VE COMMODORE BRAKE PADS | eBay

changing the placard is illegal as well,a form of fraud actually,thats how ins companies see it, ser 1 sv6/ss utes had a single tyre listed 245/45r/18 96v ser 1 ssV utes ran 19's std and they STARTED off with a 94w tyre,with various MY updates that rating went higher probably because of the...

i have a full 3'' system in mild steel on my auto ute 1 7/8- 4/1's headers,i swapped the 200cpi cats for 100 cpi outlaws a while back,made bugger all difference, will swap back when i can be bothered but yeah sounds great even after 2 yrs

i run ku31 275's on my 10's nice and flush on the rim. but i am toying with the idea of trying 295's when these wear,have to roll the guards for sure if i do that.

f@#k that! dont go near it with a barge pole..infact chuck the barge pole on it and burn it..you'd be a lot safer and wiser. showbags hit the nail on the head.BUT if it were classed as a REPAIRABLE write off thats a diffrent story. a few yards up here mainly wreckers do sell them repaired but...

yeah thanks mate.yes i know that sound, a mate got me to listen to his and thats basicly what it sounded like ..bloody scary at that!.. and what i suggested to him,which it was,one of the afm crappers.i'm gonna hit my local up with it anyway as i'm out of warranty in jan and there are revised...

hi all,got home from work tonight,got out to open the garage and noticed that the usual valve train chatter (amplified somewhat with big headers) was acting a little strange. the noise seemed to be coming and going as in making the usual racket -no louder than normal i might add- tapering off...

to be honest :spew: reminds me too much of a certain car yard i drive past most days that has VE''s painted the most hideous of colour schemes,green,blue,black,red paint with flouro orange,pink,green wheels etc.. fair enough they like to look different but f..k me!!, ive seen horse vomit look...

20x10 speedy cheetahs,51 offset, kings ssl springs on my ute,inner wheel edge (275x35x20 tyre) occasionly kisses the inner wheel arch on heavy dips in the road, no probs outside edge,not rolled,48 offset chances are you'll have to roll the guard lip?

the intake is a vcm,kpm, they are the same,have a look at the rubber boot section between the intake and throttlebody,if there is just a rubber boot there it's mafless,if there is a black cylindrical plastic tube there with a plug on it its maf tuned, if your still not sure shoot me a pm when ur...
