The rear trailing arms actually bend over time. I had mine fixed at centreline suspension in Melbourne. Paid them to put my arms into a jig and press them back into shape. 3 years on, my rear end in my VT wagon is still practically 0 camber with even tyre wear despite being lowered on SSL sedan...

Loosen both engine mounts as much as you can from the engine side. They'll start to sag and point straight down. It's impossible to do while they're nipped up as they both point outwards, and the tips of the threaded bolts are a good 50mm further apart than the holes in the subframe. Loosen em...

I had this exact issue on a mates Ecotec swap. Ended up being we forgot a ground underneath the fuse box near the battery tray. Make sure you got all the grounds! We hooked it up and fired straight up.

You cant unfortunately, gotta replace the glass. Comes like that from Holden. Unless some wrecker removes it for you..... Its glued in place and would probably bend/crease/snap while trying to remove.

I dont believe so. The VY bonnet has a slightly different shape up against the windscreen, so the VY cowl / scuttle plate wont fit (this is where the washer jets are on a VY). Best option is to buy some VE wiper arms, use a grinder and cut out the washer jets (these are on the wiper arms in...

If you can spare the cash, get a duspeed / vcm. Those twin pod filters are shiteee (looks, performance, cleaning, half filters get dirty other half clean etc)

You haven't replaced your dash cluster or fuel pump at any point have you? Your dash cluster has configuration in it that tells it whether you are in a wagon, sedan or ute as the fuel senders are all calibrated differently (different positions report different levels). Swapping in the wrong...

Reply with how you fixed it so others who also have the same problem can find your solution. I'm sure you searched online for it, couldn't find an answer, then made an account to post here (27th of July...)...

Look, to be truthful.. YES it is expensive. $300 seems like a lot to do the VIM mod, HOWEVER, without the JHP or other another companies programmer you need to: Remove the headunit from the car completely dismantle it pull the IC from the fascia (desolder it), put it into an EEPROM programmer...

The VE / WM roof DVD player connects to the front headunit via a connector on the drivers side (behind kick panel) This has a heap of wires, but the important onces are Stereo Left, Stereo Right, and a Composite video input. You're going to need to connect to these wires and attach 3x RCA (red...

I used a 5 channel sound processor in the boot tapped into the BOSE amp which gives me 3x RCAs. Then i plugged those into my 5 channel amp and you're done! I havent updated in ages, but there might be some info on my cars page...

looks like it might go to the firewall for the HVAC solenoid inside the car. There should be 2 hoses coming out of the firewall at the Heater Core barbs. Otherwise, follow it back to the other end and snap a pic for us. Obviously one of the ends is connected.

I've also had bad shocks cause excessive wear (tyres become scalloped out, do a google image search if you arent sure what this looks like) Generally: outer wear on both sides is low tyre pressure excessive wear in the centre of the tyre is over inflation excessive but even wear, on the inner...

You wont have an issue with VE parts. I can still get some VT/VX parts from a dealer, it really just depends on what. The less common parts will eventually run out of stock and cease to be manufactured, but common trim pieces, caps, suspension pieces etc will be around for a while
