    VZ v6 Loosing fluid and over heating! help??

    Had the same problem, mine was the radiator cap spring/pressure thingo had snapped off. Where the coolant goes in near the engine on the right from memory. Basically all the pressure pisses off and the water/coolant boils and evaporates

    I asked about 3.7 or 3.9 gears for my manual sv6 and was told v8 gears don't work in v6 so I'm interested in wether that is bull or not

    Changing Wheels

    All I noticed was a little adaptor ring that sits inside the rim, other than that they are fine and sit just fine on SL king springs
  9. D

    Bigger rims, or lower springs?

    Will be fine both ways, I had 20's on my sv6 at stock height at it looks **** until you lower it but just throw some SL springs in or SSL springs and it will look mint

    What clutch to buy for 190kw alloytech?

    No problems, only the fact that they are too heavy for normal driving, if people like them then ey go for it
  15. D

    What clutch to buy for 190kw alloytech?

    I'm in the same boat as you mate, my plan was to go the exedy solid flywheel with the oem equivalent clutch because these really arnt powerful cars and a hd clutch from what I heard will do your head in after a while

    sv6 short shift? also wheel problems?

    sv6 short shift? also wheel problems?

    I'm running king SL all round, was tempted on 19's so might have to go with it. As for your clutch I was quoted $1400 for the standard one. I'll have to check again. The throw is fine it's the height that sucks! Want it to be lower

    Hey guys and girls Recently my clutch has decided to die on me and I've finally got the funds for an exedy clutch kit with solid flywheel. Opinions? Don't wanna go over $1500 However i want to throw a short shift in or even just lower the gear stick. Is it possible to cut them or is it not...

    removing mud gaurds? tray top

    You only have to guard to a certain extent in WA not sure about everywhere else, my navara was yellow stickered and needed them, however my tires were hanging out atleast an inch on both sides and bottom was about 40cm off the ground, so honestly don't think it matters that much

    p plate exemption for family statesman

    Rules are set and that's how it is, when I feel like giving my car **** I go somewhere there is no traffic and I can do what I want and not get caught but I'm only endangering myself.

    Which Ohm resistors should I buy ?

    Or change the flasher relay haha like he said
  23. D

    Which Ohm resistors should I buy ?

    Watts divided by Volts will give you the appropriate current and then using VIR you can do volts divided by current will give you the resistance which will be the total required so thn do that formula but change watts to the led rating. So calculate using the normal globe first. Pretty sure...
