Bump

You'll never get them white enough with road legal headlight globes (unfortunately), you'll need 5-6000K globes IMO (the blue ones).

I changed my VZ V6 (to a K&N) and noticed a slight change in performance and noise under-load. Made a bigger difference in the V8 though

Works very well, just dont go snapping any ratchets near your face.

If it's an auto it should have a transmission dipstick (my 4speed auto VZ had one), the manuals are sealed.

Towbar sold, send me some offers for the dash!

Thanks for the advice, I'm gonna try a long shot and put some new clutch fluid through it as the old stuff is pretty filthy. If that doesn't work I'll drop it out and have a look. Any idea how the LS7 clutch matches up against an exedy or xtreme?

Am I guessing correctly that I'll need a new clutch then?

Hey guys looking for a bit of help with my 06 thunder as (manual) Up until very recently my gear box ran completely fine but a week or two ago it wouldn't go into gear when I jumped in after work. Ended up putting a bit of force (not an overly large amount) and it went in. Since then though...

Why are you buying it, are you using it for work ie Chippy?

Yeh mine only seems to fill up 52L from empty, thought maybe the pick up is above the bottom of the tank or something... @ Munz, are you sure that will work?

Trying to install a set of binnacle gauges into my VZ (Thunder SS with CC) but am having issues. With just the loom wired in I get 'Immobiliser Failed' and with the loom plugged into the gauges I get 'very low fuel' 'service engine' 'dealer service'. Have double checked, triple checked...

Certainly tempting Abba but just looking to see if something pops up cheap, bit out of my price range (new)

If it's losing coolant without leaks it might be coming out the overflow, have you heard it boil yet? Could be a stuck thermostat

Is it showing overheating on the gauge? This guys on the money, just replaced mine as it was faulty and was boiling without showing it was too hot

Looking to see if anyone's heard/knows if it's possible to install the map light/sunglasses holder that's in the Calais etc into a Vz ute. Would it just be a case of cutting the roof lining and running a wire? Or are there no mounting points for it?

I owned a VZ Alloytec for 3 years and apart from servicing it I never had to spend a dollar on it, ran like clockwork. Smooth, Economical and plenty of power. Bought it from an elderly couple though who serviced it regularly. Only reason I sold it was for a V8 VZ ute which i've spent far more...

They come up every now and then on ebay

Hi guys, really need some help. On Thursday while sitting at a set of lights steam starting coming out of the bonnet (with no overheating warnings going off, temp gauge was fine). Pulled over and let it cool down before driving it home. Took it into a cooling repair shop on Friday...

Turns out I didn't realise the thermos don't kick in until the temp hits 104 degrees. Which is why it was boiling since all I was running was water. Thought this might be the case so filled it up with coolant (also did the chemi weld anyway before hand) and watched it hit 105 and whalla! The...

Nah, only run it on 98

Thanks for the quick replies, the radiator guy swapped the relays around and everything still worked. The fans do come on, just not for long enough. It doesn't even show it's overheating on the dash as the needle doesn't go past halfway, but it boils. @ Conrod I had the car on a massive...

Been reading for a few hours trying to find some advice but haven't really found anything that applies to my problem (its a L76 V8). For some reason my car keeps overheating as I can hear it bubbling away into the overflow. These problems started a couple of weeks ago when it blew the back of...

Does anyone know what material most Disc brakes are made of? I've used cheaper slotted sets of ebay which are made of Cast Iron with success (brakes tested 101%) but just wondering if anyone knows how long they last/if they're a danger.

Have you got a decent vid of a 6.0 with manta catback? Theres a couple on youtube but the vid quality is shite.

Thanks for the replies, extremely helpful! I'm definitely looking at a better note/louder rather then just louder. I've looked at a lot of exhaust vids but it's still hard to tell, and I don't know anyone else whom i could listen to in person. The extremely mixed opinions of xforce have kinda...

Also does anyone know a joint in Melbourne which stocks difilippo exhausts? Having trouble finding any

Sorry if this has been asked before or is in the wrong area, had a good look around but couldn't find anything. Recently got a 6.0L VZ Thunder and been looking at exhausts. I'm not really too keen on spending huge amounts of money but was wondering if it's worth getting a catback system? I...

Welcome to the world of being an apprentice.

It doesn't matter if you're doing the speed limit or not, if theres more then one lane you should let them past when you can. Having said that if they're tailgating me ill sit there with no ####s given watching them go nuts. Happened the other morning and the dude went nuts, at 5:30am I couldn't...

For everything people say about the alloytec all I've had trouble with the actual engine is a small oil leak and a bit of a rattle (probably from the tensioners). Had a few electrical problems. Air con doesn't work too well Rear passenger side window doesnt work Bubbling noise from the air con...

Tell me more of this magical land! A room just for fapping sounds amazing.

Think it's all one piece mate. Headlights have sold.

Looks pretty epic

Yeh i've rotated them several times, but will try again.

https://soundcloud.com/vicetone/vicetone-heartbeat Just came out today, these dudes are pretty insane

Yeh tail lights and number plate lights work fine, it's pretty wierd. Yeh might check the connections
