    HSV AP Racing brake upgrade on VF SSV Redline

    Hey everyone, I’ve bought hsv ap racing brakes off a club sport for my vf ss as well as the rotors. Once I put the rear rotors on I noticed the eletronic handbrake wasn’t hugging the rotor like the existing stock rotors did, meaning it won’t grab when activated. I measured the internal diameter...

    VF SS with 4.11s?

    Hey does anyone have any experience running 4.11s in an auto vf ss? Curious to know how the 6l80e pairs up with 4.11s on the freeway in terms of revs haha. The car is a not my daily so I’m not looking for sublime drivability here, but I’m also not looking to fully throw it away either. Cheers

    Flex fuel system

    Hey, I’ve got a 2017 Sv6 series 2. I’ve done a bit of engine work and plan to tune it for e85. I know Holden removed e85 compatibility in 2015, so I was wondering if anyone knew the most cost effective systems to run e85, also considering performance. Cheers

    Vf sv6 - High idle

    I recently cammed my vf sv6 series 2. However, after driving I soon realised that it was idling far too high at around 1050rpm. I’ve had two tuners set the idle at 700rpm through the ecu, however, in drive it still remains at 1050rpm. Before anyone suggests checking vacuum leaks, as I initially...

    VF Bimodal exhaust on an sv6

    Hi all , I was just wondering if anyone has put an exhaust from a vf2 ss (Bi-Modal) on a ve sv6. As the ss is getting an aftermarket exhaust and don’t want to waste the old one that sounds good on the v8. don’t really care about v6 exhaust, wouldn’t mind it being a bit louder tho.

    ZB vs VF Climate Control

    Hi y'all...I'm new to this site and joined the forum as Holden and its dealers (surprise) have been unable to assist. I've transitioned from a VF2 to a ZB (why you may ask-another story) and in the VF2, the HVAC was sweet. I could set the dial to a certain temperature, push the aircon button...

    Hi, I’ve had my VFII Redline for 2.5 years now. I’m just over how quiet it is! (Yes even with bimodal open and the fuse out) I’ve been looking at a few exhaust options, ideally I’d like it as loud as she is on cold start up haha. The options I’m looking at are: - remove real mufflers (but...

    Noise while coasting

    Hi. I bought a VF series 2 SV6 last year and noticed just before its first service a whirring/clicking noise like putting a pen in a fan. The holden dealership said it was "characteristic of the car". I'm not sure if the noise is getting worse, or I'm getting more annoyed by it. I've never...
