Just in the process of throwing some new door speakers and an aftermarket head unit into my VZ Calais, but I am unsure exactly of how the factory amp is wired to the head unit? As far as I know they don't have a separate speaker wires to the head unit so I'm presuming they piggy back off the...

Thanks guys, all sorted now. I've flogged the VE now, have a 4wd Hilux. Just came here because you are all fast and good for info haha.

To be honest I don't want it to watch movies and drive anyway. At the moment I haven't run the wire anywhere, but I can't access the setup menus or anything without the hand brake wire installed. I just don't feel like pulling the centre console out haha.

Sounds like that will do the trick, cheers. Got abit confused, as I think the US models must have a foot brake wire aswell, and the correct sequence of hand brakes and foot brake need to be pushed to access videos haha.

Recently I've put an Alpine IVE-W554ABT in my ute. It has a "parking brake" wire, basically without it installed it won't let me do anything just listen to music (cant even access the setup). According to the manual I need too: "Connect this lead to the power supply side of the parking...

Driveability is a very subjective word that varies from person to person. What I may deem as driveable, you may deem as completely nuts and stupid on the street. Or potentially the opposite. The tune will determine alot or how driveable you cam is, as well as your choice of diff gears will...

Wow you're a dooch

I had the full 2.5" system from NAAF on my VE SS Wagon 6 speed manual. And I can say that when cruising it definitely did not drone. I can also say that if you want to save even more money, and are generally interested in working on your car, that installing the full exhaust is a very...

In my opinion you'll never have a true 'deep' V8 idle note with a cam. I went twin 2.5" because I was scared of drone (I owned a wagon and heard they can drone a lot worse than sedans due to the big cabin). I wish I went twin 3". I was happy with my twin 2.5", but I do wish it was just a...

This is my old car. Was the full twin 2.5" system from NAAF. Some people say it sounds raspy, and at the very top end it was a little. But for the majority they liked the sound. VE SS Wagon Manta Exhaust - YouTube
