I've recently been shopping around for a brake upgrade on my VX SS commodore. I've been led to believe to get my car engineer passed with supercharger etc that I'll need 6 pot brakes up front, 4 on the back. Brembo's are crazy expensive, Harrop are even worse. I was speaking to a shop in...

I have a VX SS commodore that is in pretty good shape overall. I'm currently getting a fair bit done on it in terms of mechanicals etc. In other words its not stock. I was speaking to a mate a few days ago and mentioned in passing, when I get my car back I'm gonna get a sunroof installed...

I'm in the process of doing a little work on my car (vx ss commodore). The floor on the drivers side was getting fairly hot before these (current) upgrades with 100 cell cats, cammed etc. So while the engine is out I was going to wrap the exhaust but googling it, it seems that it can promote the...

Hey guys, My car keeps throwing an error code, P0121. This is the code definition.. Code P0121 Definition Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) “A” Circuit Range Performance Problem What Does P0121 Mean? Your TPS “A” Circuit has an expected output voltage range, as does your TPS “B” Circuit (if so...

Are these throttle bodys available any time in the not too distant future? Thanks edit - see your in Victoria...so your shut down...maybe sometime in the future when your up again.

Hi guys, just a quick question on torque converters. I'm having a problem with limp mode...yeah yeah not with my missus (out of the gutters boys :P ) I have my traction control light coming on when cold.. When its on its like a prop on a boat cavitating. I know there is power there but it seems...

Hello, I have an error code 68 being thrown on my VX SS but the code doesn't have a description. I did a search and on VR's code 68 is the transmission slipping. Do the codes stay the same as the newer models came out? Also will a slipping transmission turn off my traction control. I'm trying to...

Hey guys. I recently had some work done on the top end of my car. Cam, lifters, springs, heads were decked etc. The mechanic mentioned that I have piston slap. I assumed the term would mean like a clicking like a lifter or something. So I changed all the belts and pulleys (to be sure). And was...

Hey guys, My traction control light is stuck on. My mechanic swapped the module over for a second hand one he had around the shop but the light stays on. I have it booked in on tuesday to have the wheel speed sensors changed and I'm trying to avoid buying a recon abs module unless I really have...

I've always been confused as to why people blank out their number plates in images posted on the internet. I can understand it if your ripping up the street but otherwise I'm not sure of the reasoning?

I've recently had some engine work done on my car and noticed that my bonnet is getting freakin' hot since. I've been considering wrapping my headers but I'm unsure of products on the market and what is best. Some people say that heat wrapping will destroy the header...others say that it...

Never mind...cam and stall has been chosen :)

Cams singing their own songs...

When I bought my car (vx ss) around 9 months ago I was driving back home with her down the freeway. Hit 100kmh and cruise control. About 10 minutes down the freeway it started rattling pretty bad like a rocker was just floating I guess. Anyway stopped the car and inspected it as best I could...

Hi guys..new here but thought I might start a dairy of where this is gonna take my car. Just turned old so I think this car will end up being my mid life crisis :p I recently bought a bone stock vx that had 168k klm's on the clock. Was clean and seemed well looked after. The trim is good and the...

Hi guys, new to the forum so be gentle :p Just bought myself a vx ss that I plan on doing a few cosmetic changes as well as a cam kit as time goes on. Like everyone else its likely to be a work in progress. Anyway I've decided to start on cosmetics at first. Looking at putting on a set of...
