So, designed the enclosure for my DIY Exhaust controller! This is basically an Arduino with a DFRobot relay hat, enclosed in a custom made 3D printed box which I'll eventually get replaced with a CNC Machined enclosure. The enclosure itself is currently being made as we speak. Pretty much...

I would honestly swap in an LFX and a 6spd manual when your LY7 blows up. You're already making about 190kW (a good 5kW more than a VS Clubby) and the LFX is a pretty noticeable power bump over the LY7 and it has way, way less reliability issues than the LY7. If you want to use your existing...

So, me being the king of all cheapskates, I swapped back to a non-AFM VE SS exhaust and man, what a difference! Perfect in terms of tone but it could be louder. I think that with some custom fabricated tips I might get a bit of extra volume from the exhaust without the **** note that the...

Pretty sure the 2010 Camaro RS has a Bosch ECU as well. Might help to look around Camaro5 as seppos love modding V6 Camaros for budget builds. Something, something cheap insurance.

This. Never, ever delete any centre mufflers on the SV6 unless you want to play the fart trumpet orchestra down your street. Trust me, It sounds like arse, especially at low RPM. High RPM and High load, Low RPM it sounds alright if you're going for that Jap car sound, but don't ever expect any...

Have you changed the strut tops themselves? I hear strut tops (ie the bits at the top with the bearings in them for your steering) tend to go pretty often. Swap out for some Nolathanes if you can.

Gosh the planets must be aligning for the pair of us mate because I'm just beginning to have this issue myself! The dreaded clicky HVAC wiper module. Worst part is too is that I have an aftermarket headunit in my car so the calibration process is going to be... Interesting, to say the least.

Did you have to do anything to the Firewall to get the clutch pedal through? you'd assume that Holden would be total cheapskates and use the same bodies for Manual and Automatic cars instead of making two separate bodies for two separate transmissions. Someone's gotta do a writeup with pics for...

Was just wondering if anyone here has a pinout for the amplifier that comes as standard on Utes with the premium sound system? Also, where is it generally mounted, and what kind of input does it take (High or low-level) I've just purchased some rear speakers (the ones that go in the bottom of...

Honestly, the future isn't EVs, it's getting as many people working from home as possible. The large bulk of people use their cars to get to and from work, and with so much office work being done on computers these days, and with the internet getting better (at least in other countries, smh)...

I have one of these, only I got mine from DigOptions, cost about the same too. I've only ever really had one issue which was relatively easy to fix, the clips don't sit in that well with my unit. I fixed that with some high-strength velcro behind the fascia. Also protip? Get an app called...

Probs your best bet are Ones from a MY2012 Omega, probably. Grab 'em from a wreckers or off Gumtree. Connectors and pinouts may be different between MY's so it's best to go with seats from the same year model to prevent your airbags going kablammo. Although I would check with your local track...

Louvers are huge in the mustang scene. Hell they stick'em on their side windows too.

is it Metallic, ie does it sound like someone smacking a piece of metal with a hammer? If so, take it to a mechanic ASAP.

That's rod knock. I lost rod six myself in an engine with 210k on it. I'd check the condition of your clutch if it's a manual as a broken DMF (dual mass flywheel) did it to mine. Basically caused the crank to walk. Thank fuark it didn't kill my mains but it took out a rod. I've since swapped the...
