My First Car - 2005 VZ SV6

Get your windows tinted mate. I just got mine done on saturday in the darkest legal tint and i would never go back now. Do you mean a panel filter when you say pod filter?

I was under the impression that a pod filter and a panel filter are different filters. Feel free to correct me if I am wrong as I am quite new to all this, but my understanding is a panel filter sits at the top of the air box and is dry, where as a pod filter sits inside the air box connected to the intake tube and uses oil for self cleaning.

I was also under the impression you can only have one not both...someone better explain this to me now...

How much did that tint set you back mate?

Dam that's alot of pics lol...Don't worry I'm the same :yeah: congrats on your new ride treat her well and she will look after ya . The silver manifold on yours is the updated model, like mine I had a 06 SV6 had the silver manifold, the 190kW stayed same the torque dropped to 335Nm to comply with even stricter euro emission's. I think after Feb 05 the manifold changed to silver and got the four airbags and LSD as standard, just a minor update from Holden is all.

Yeah its a September 05 model. Yeah I did go a little psycho with the digital but hey, she's a beautiful piece of work by Holden. I am loving the LSD too...

Yea you can only fit one filter at a time but pod filters are pretty useless on a stock car and even more useless when they are un-sealed. Your probably better off just getting a k&n panel filter instead of the pod. Afaik the k&n panels are also oiled

nice pics from the lookout and nice sv6. 22k? how many ks? I sold my black manual 2005 sv6 for 25k with 40thou on the clock.

I got sick of the lack of balls of the sv6, alot of hype about nothing, but the SV6 is a good streeter 6 cylinder car for a to b travel.

In terms of intakes, keep with a kn flat filter for your current airbox.

Seen a blue vz clubby going around in Yalla with a PWR supercharger set up on it?
