Hey guys, as the title states I've got a pretty loud front end knock. I've changed the sway bar link pins and the sway bar d bushes, thinking it's time for the radius rod bushes? In saying that, I've also noticed that the front passenger wheel sits a hell of a lot further forward (off centre)...

How'd you go with the memory wiring mate? I've got the same seats in a VY but couldn't manage to wire up the memory function, neither could the auto elec.

Impossible I believe, pretty sure it's welded. I know sedans are anyway

Yep, my fronts settled lower than the rear. I like the look though, looks better than towing an invisible caravan :spot on: Looks good mate.

I've really gotta take some pictures that aren't done with an iPhone. Shitty quality but phresh detail :beer chug:

straight swap buddy shape wise anyway, not 100% sure on looms etc. but you won't need to change and panels, as the calais doesn't have the teardrop in the headlight.

Teacher at high school, Gayed Gayed... That one was too easy. And a student, probably the most common name in the world, Mohammed Mohammed

What condition are the strut tops in? Apart from a bearing missing, any noises or creaks?

Thanks mate, I'm thinking next step is a sunroof. Not for a while though! Hopefully I'll get a couple of good shots sooner or later

Pretty happy with how it's come up now :)

Widespread rumour that it has been designed like that to allow for a driver in the car. I.e car will level out when driving. Don't quote me on that!

seeing how many people we could get on one shoulder ride. We got to 4 high before I broke my wrist, god I miss high school

Hi all Lately (as in the past 7 days) my alarm has been going off randomly. It's happened about 5 times, all when it's been raining or the car is wet, two times being tonight (10:30pm and 11:30pm, not cool!). Every time the warning flashes up on the computer alarm activated by bonnet. Now...

Haha, I'm selling a VY bonnet on Gumtree atm. Had a bloke call up who has a '2006 Series 2 VY' and wants my bonnet. I laughed and laughed and laughed then told him he had a VZ but was insisting he had a VY. after 10 minutes of me talking this tool out of buying a bonnet that won't suit his car...

If you weren't in Perth, those dark SSZ wheels would be mine! good luck with it all dude

Yeah my mate is a mechanic though, so more than happy to have him guide me through it! dude nothing makes me cringe more than 'Senator' badges on an exec with a fibreglass kit :( hmm, yeah I don't mind the series 2 rims actually. man I'm just loving the look of the kit on delft blue! it's good...

Panel Shed in Diamond Creek are worth a buzz

Also on the market for new wheels, I sold the pentagons a while ago. What are you guys thoughts on charcoal ssv's (thunders) on a blue car?

Once you've debadged, you can never go back. It looks too clean!

thanks dude! but I was never ever ever ever ever going to put SS badges on my ecotec haha. Yeah i've got everything I need to drop it, just been time poor and I need to find time when a mate is around to help as well. Doing the full shocks, struts and springs.

Living the high life in collingwood.

Okay, so after a 2 week hiatus when i had to drive a VE (poor me) I got my baby back from the panel beaters. Finally I have a full SS kit with some welcome additions! I know it's still 4WD spec, but good things come in time :) check it out Just enjoying having her back for the moment.

ITEM: VY Calais door trims Description: Good nick, passengers door has a small cut in it, about 3mm. Refer to pics. Doors are also bare (no speaker grille, courtesy light, soundproofing etc.) Price: $150 Ono Location: Yarra Glen, VIC Pics: ITEM: VY Acclaim...

I thought it was a bird **** when I first looked, not impressed. Hopefully I can cut it out or maybe with a bit of spot remover it'll go. At least it didn't leave a dint. Yeah Danielzke, definitely worth giving it a crack, stock up on vinyl dye!

Yeah i've long given that idea away.. haha i've seen a couple and they look shithouse On another note, some derelict opened their door onto my car leaving a lovely white mark. Pictures up tonight and if I ever find the scumbag I will do unspeakable things

Cheers mate, uh yeah all the ones I looked at were between $300 and $500. I just waited around popped into wreckers as I drove past them and found this one for $130. Just gotta wait!

gotta remember, he spent the first 12 years of his life as a seventh day adventist. i'd be a ####ing murderer too if that was me!

Okay time for a bit of an update. Nothing exterior wise, but I've put some pretty new seats in and replaced the roof lining with a black one! Almost done with interior work now, I wand suede dash panels to match the door trims and maybe sometime down the line I might look at a Calais cluster...

Alright so I've tapped the passenger seat wiring from the drivers and that works fine... but after just wiring up the + and - for drivers it won't work. Is there anything else that needs wiring? and where the hell would I wire it too? thanks guys

Hoping somebody can help. Running into brick walls trying to wire these up. I don't mind having to bypass the memory module, but if anybody knows how to wire them up with full use of the memory function that'd be good. Even if somebody has wiring diagrams that'll help! Also got the door card...

Caught this toss in Yarra Glen, hope he's on this site!

Thanks for that mate. Anybody else got any ideas? Was hoping to get this done tomorrow.

Are you talking about the sunglasses holder at the front? (second pic) Or the one the middle of the roof? (exec/acclaim etc) because it doesn't have that light. Where the wiring is it looks like it would lead down the passenger side A pillar.

Hi all, I'm absolutely hopeless with wiring so I was after a bit of advice. I've got a new roof lining for a VY, and most of the wiring looks okay, but the last picture has been cut, it's on the front passenger side.. Any idea what it's used for? Rear courtesy lights: Sunglasses holder...

I'm pretty sure Series I had wiring for foggies, but Series II didn't...

This idiot. I was politely explaining that VY and VZ tail lights are different sizes to another person. This guy insists that I'm wrong. I think I won.

When I first started using the interwebz, I signed up to a mountain bike forum that had a very strict policy on correct grammar and spelling. I was always quite good with it all, but getting flamed for writing like a tard on the net kicked me right into gear. Dnt b lzy ppls itz nt hrd 2 rite...
