not wanting to get people in trouble but i thought radar dectors could be picked up by police. Is there units which are undetectable or is just a case of if you get caught then so be it

70,000 km's in my dreams i am lucky if i can get half that but then i do enjoy driving my ute as why i bought it - not to drive like a grandpa and consrve and scrimp for every last km possible out of a set of tyres i too am about to get a set for the rear and am enjoying reading what people...

i guess it would depend on the offset of the rim, the width of the rim and the type of tyre i have 19 x 8 and no probs freind has 19 x 8.5 and his does scrub both of us have the same tyres easy fix would be get the guards rolled

At work at the mo but will take a couple later on when i get home does it matter what model or engine mine will be SS v8

due to so many posts on this subject i cant recall if this has been covered I have gone to the extent of pulling off the fuel tank cover and side panel to try and find the reason why the filling is so hard ( which is where i feel the majority of the problem is - that you just cant get enough...

is this due to seeing one with it or just a thought i looked into this when i was trying to find a way to stop fuel theives but could not find one which would cover the original hole without have the hole welded up and a smaller one recut you could always just put one of the stickers on like...

i would have to say you dont have to do wild mods to have a cool car i think keeping things simple is the best look - not much interest for the airbrushing or wild bling things for me

THIS SHOULD HAVE TOP STATUS IN LINK RATINGS Heres a pic of my ute

i would go see a auto electrician and get them to do a current draw and leakage test to see if anything is drawing power when the car is not running i would only trust the dealer to look at it and say all ok when they dont know Otherwise if you are handy enough and have a multi meter which...

Not sure if something has been said but i cannot find it but does the ls2 engine cover fit onto the ls1 Before all go why bother and the heat will kill it its not for go but more for show- i like the look of them better than the 2 peice covers any help appreciated EDIT so far cant see no...

VDO Speco another guage to consider would be a voltmeter easy to wire in ( + & - )

well i checked mine last night and here are the details 92048200 has HK printed on label 92048209 has EL printed on label so all seems ok to me

if no one else can answer beforehand i will check what is on my set i have at home which i took out of my ss out of curiousity are they for ute or sedan or wagon and how much did you pay i have thought of selling mine but didnt think i would get enough to be worthwhile will get back to you...

no probs at all retail was $2600 fitted allround with NS2 nangs on them I paid $1000 neat as i also traded my factory 17's in on them ( i deal with these people all the time so a good deal was had and i did it the following morning after picking up car) as i said above mine are shadow chrome...

if they are a good name brand and reasonably priced ok watch out if they have been in a car for a while as you dont know how sagged they could be and you dont have warranty my opinion go new so you have something to fall back on - ie not what they told you as to height of car or if they sag in...

mine are actually BSA but AR racing do a cheaper version but are cheaper quality and i didnt want to comprimise with 19's

I lowered mine with lovells super lows cost around 180 pair for springs used original shocks ( mine being ss has fe2 already so kept original shocks) Fitted myself - took about 3 hours all up ( rear is piss easy but front a bit fiddly as you have to compress springs - used air tools so made...

so does anyone have one fitted yet that they can give their impressions of what difference it makes so far i cant see how it would make much dif but then i dont track race either

have fitted lots of nudge bars here at work and a couple of bullbars that mount in front of original bumper ( you can get bumper replacement but most are not air bag comp and police target them alot) check out east coast bullbars site for pics not to hard to do but bumper removal is required...

i have a vz and same deal-has air coming out back of the console would like to know if this is just because holden could not be bothered to change for the ute or if it serves some other purpose i find it just blows cold air straight towards the cabin vents which seems a waste

Does anyone know of a way or a kit which you can get to allow you to automatically close your windows when you press the remote to lock the car i drive with windows down alot and would be handy to be able to just get out and press a button Alternatively can you adapt the original switch...

dont normally use the auto lights but tried it the other day and noticed it takes half a minute before the lights will turn on or same if you re-enter lighted area for them to turn off Probably so they dont false trigger in low light areas and shaded regions

Could only find info from a while ago so thought i would share my experience Found with having 19's on the ute that continuous axle tramp ( take of from lights or going round corners mainly) that i was causing extra tyre wear and damaging the tyres as well as feeling like the back end was going...

would have to agree that V8 option is best way to go if you like a bit of fun drive it hard and you will find as i do it can use fuel pretty hard but controlled driving isnt to bad i get on average around 14 l / 100 km driving to and from work each week - this is traffic driving with a squirt...

well have done the mod and wow you have to love that induction noise i havent noticed any real difference in power or loss of but feels a bit better in acceleration ( but that may be due to the excitment of it all) as i dont race my car its more about the sound than the times anyway Cost for...

I found on my ute same as yours that it does have the pipe which you are refering to that should be there i would say that someone has taken it off at some stage if you fit it you will lose the induction sound you have at present If you want to do the mcai you will have to go to holden and...

would love to get some dimensions as well as a couple of sphotos of it installed if possible what comments would you have on sound compared to in cabin mounted sub

not real hard at all remove grille couple of clips or screws on side in wheel arch couple of clips under number plate and i think a couple of screws underneath from what i can remember only took me 5 mins the first time i did it

Has it got the right fluid in it? Noticed on mine it uses auto trans fluid not normal gear oil which could cause this problem as well other thing to check would be the shifter itself-maybe to much play

would have to say cant see myself how sitting on the freeway with higher revs like 5th would give better fuel economy.i have found 6th to cruise really well -freeway only- but have to go back to 5th on hills to keep the good rev range without labouring it-possibly where it makes the difference...

sorry for the delay but being that i didn't know i went and saw my local tyre supplier and asked him- not that it makes alot of sense to me apart from the fact that they fit my vehicle He told me commodores have a 45mm offset( not sure if this is what he ment and how it was supposed to be...

Just got to ask have you tried them to give that sort of answer i have had one fitted to my ute and am getting around 50km more per tank than before so in my case they are worth the money ( only fitted one so far)

i suppose it depends on how far you intend to lower it i have 19 x 8 on my ute and when lowered they just fit under the guard without scrubbing ( a mate has 8 1/2 wide and he needed to have his guards rolled) i would guess they would be close to sitting outside the guard so you wouldnt be able...

You are right in that the ute bumper is different to sedan i have seen a few around with the factory mesh fitted and one person told me he used sika to hold it in there-another ordered the vehicle with it fitted i wanted something different to the standard so i just used alloy mesh easy to...

here is a couple more pics done recently
