    VE Eibach Springs Pro-Kit

    Hello everyone. I am wanting to lower my VE SSV Redline and not wanting to use King Springs. I have read up on the Eibach Springs but haven't found many photos, or reviews from commodore drivers. Just curious on how much it would l (photos would be amazing) and the comfort of the ride. Cheers in...

    Will this set-up work??

    Ah ok, i forgot about the parcel shelf aye. I was just thinking, another option could be to run 4 speakers + 1 amp then depending if there isn't loud enough i could upgrade to 6 speakers by using the parcel shelf, and adding another amp, while upgrading the power cable and maybe a head unit...

    Will this set-up work??

    Alright, so say the front speakers are 110W and rears are downsized to 80W RMS and the amp puts out 110RMS x 4. Would the rears have a high chance of blowing?? So is pioneer, alpine more reliable as a amp over an Jaycar Response?

    Will this set-up work??

    Is this a sensor?

    Pretty sure it was 3.223 Ohms, but i will double tomorrow at work. Whys that? So AFM = Air flow meter right? Not sure about IAT.. Just went into the back of the air filter box... EDIT: Just looked mod chips up on another site about the Ohms, it must have read it at 3.2k Ohms, i might have...

    Is this a sensor?

    I'm a apprentice sparky and just checked it. It pulls 3.223 Ohms. So the more resistance the more airflow allowed?? Meaning that the sensor would normally get resistance from the air box through some sort of mechanism? The summer to winter idea would be a good way to fool people, thinking...

    Is this a sensor?

    So the ecu actually changes so that the "mod chip" is no longer in effect and reads off something else?? Im actually really curious as to how this all works, i find it fun understand little things like this..

    Is this a sensor?

    Ok thanks for the quick reply, so how much extra bang would it give really?? Would it be causing any damage, or affect fuel consumption by doing this or is it fine for it to be left there??

    Is this a sensor?

    Hey everyone, so i have bought a VY Series 2 S Pack, second hand obviously and i was going through the engine bay when i found a male connector disconnected and what looks to be a resistor stuck into the end of it with two prongs.. It is located at the air box which has a free female connector...

    Do i need a amp for my speakers??

    Well im not doing the setup in one hit, ill put the head unit in and at the same time re-wire the whole audio system. and if i have the rear speakers ill put them in at the same time too. then ill do the door vr/vs pods with the tweeters in the dash speaker part. then amp. and finnally a sub...
  24. Randymate

    Do i need a amp for my speakers??

  25. Randymate

    they are both pioneer, the sub is TS-W309D4 with RMS 400 watts and peak 1400watts and amp is GM-6500F with 60Wx4 RMS. what is the parcel shelf? is that under the rear window??
  26. Randymate

  27. Randymate

    Do i need a amp for my speakers??

  28. Randymate

    Do i need a amp for my speakers??

    Yes that makes alot more sense, i didn't look at it that way, thanks mate. found the speakers off ebay for $150 for a pair so i might get one set for now, ill put them into the rear as im not sure if i will put vr/vs front pods in.. i also bought a Kenwood KDC 153 from Auto Pro for $95 today...
  29. Randymate

    Do i need a amp for my speakers??

    ok great thats the info i love, yea i was liking the pioneer too. so would it be better to run the rear speakers off the headunit? or could i run the front speakers off the headunit and rear off the amp?? what would be the pros/cons for doing it either way??
  30. Randymate

    Do i need a amp for my speakers??

    not sure, head deck is 95, sub is about 200?? speakers are 130 each so 260 maybe?? i havn't completely looked at priceing yet, mainly at what is possible. but im looking at the lower price end of the high end brands.. if that makes sense..
  31. Randymate

    Do i need a amp for my speakers??

    so would that also power the rear speakers?? are you able to 'split' a channel? so from 1 channel you split it into 2 channels? that is if there is enough watts to share around..
  32. Randymate

    Do i need a amp for my speakers??
