Yes its the two factory leads, they are both the same, both have short right angled connectors and you plug in those aerial ext plugs for the aftermarket double din head units. One has a off white cover (probably clear from new but turned that off white yellowy colour) the other has a black...

Experts The VY has two coax cables going into the factory head unit, is this a cable each for am and fm. If so, can you join them to go into an aftermarket head unit as i just connected a new head unit and only have fm. Thanks

Hi guys, I have a VY 11 Clubsport R8 and it has the Blapunkt 200 watt six speaker sound system. Does anyone know if the speakers in this system are good quality or should they be replaced, they do sound good. But the real thing Im after is to get a bit more volume out of it, is it...

Ye, Nick is right, i would bet its vacumm. Im pretty sure the VN has a vacumm operated switch, you know the level switch, it operates a vacumm switch in the back and then feeds vacumm to the different suction doovers lol. I had to replace that little part on the switch that all the vac lines...

No just mean the fastest naturally aspirated v8 holden in any commodore, Ye Mattman, i wasnt putting it up against Eddies or those guys with the 1300 hp twin turbos. I mean against any other Commodore (any model) that doesnt have twin superchargers. I cant think of a car like that that could...

Im with vztrt, Dyno figures mean jack, take ya ride to the quarter and run her and tell us what ya get. Only reason I reckon dynos are crap, is that figures can vary by 30 % or more depending on how the guy is using it. Change the correction factor and hp can gain 15%.

Hi Guys Just lowered the VT with some King springs Super lows all round. Wow nice and low, only problem is the rear wheels now are way out on the camber, about 3 degrees to be exact lol. Installed a Pedders Kit in it and it sure fixed the problem but it also raised the height. The...

I dont think it would be worth anything but Im no expert, cores are still the same as they where 50 years ago and so are the top and bottom tanks. Probably be different if it was something like a genuine factory GTHO Phase 3 radiator. Trev

Hi Scott Did you use a kit from the CRS. They make kits for them. If not how did you go about the sump. The rest as in mounting gearbox and fitting exhausts is all just straight forward stuff and if you use the wiring loom and computer from the donor car its even easier. Trev
