    HSV AP Racing brake upgrade on VF SSV Redline

    Hey everyone, I’ve bought hsv ap racing brakes off a club sport for my vf ss as well as the rotors. Once I put the rear rotors on I noticed the eletronic handbrake wasn’t hugging the rotor like the existing stock rotors did, meaning it won’t grab when activated. I measured the internal diameter...

    Passing suspension defect with blocks/spacers in suspension?

    Hey all, I’ve got SL lowering springs all round on my vf ss. Recently got done for being too low… The car itself is not too low, it’s in fact Holden’s stupid exhaust design. Anyways, I was wondering if anyone has any experience chucking a few spacers/wooden blocks cut to fit and slip in the...

    VF SS with 4.11s?

    I’ve got a diff with 3.7s laying around at home that I was going to install but then a mate of mine offered me his diff with 4.11s. Do I bother swopping it? Or 3.7s will be plenty ?

    VF SS with 4.11s?

    Hey does anyone have any experience running 4.11s in an auto vf ss? Curious to know how the 6l80e pairs up with 4.11s on the freeway in terms of revs haha. The car is a not my daily so I’m not looking for sublime drivability here, but I’m also not looking to fully throw it away either. Cheers

    Insuring prohibited vehicle on your p’s

    I’ve actually already sorted one under an “auto repair” business. What do I use as a reasoning for driving the ss?

    Insuring prohibited vehicle on your p’s

    So I’m currently on my green p’s but recently bought a vf Ssv. Under the exemption laws, Vicroads states that a p-plater can in fact drive a probationary prohibited vehicle if they are under “supervision” by a fully licensed driver, the same as a learner. However, in terms of insurance, in...

    Legality of Lowering Car (and Camber) on Red Ps in NSW?

    I would recommend running SLs which is around 35mm. Anything lower scrapes just about everything and looks too red hot. My mats had SSLs and all have been done. I’ve never had problems with my SLs. In regards to 7 degrees camber… I have to agree with everyone else. It’ll ride horribly, wear the...

    Vf sv6 high stall converter

    Can anyone recommend the best and most affordable place to get a 3000 high stall on my vf sv6 in the south eastern suburbs of Melbourne? Got a custom cam done but lost lots of torque down low in the rpms as expected… Cheers.

    Flex fuel system

    Pre sure it’s supported. So all I have to do is get a flex fuel sensor? Obviously also getting it retuned

    Flex fuel system

    Hey, I’ve got a 2017 Sv6 series 2. I’ve done a bit of engine work and plan to tune it for e85. I know Holden removed e85 compatibility in 2015, so I was wondering if anyone knew the most cost effective systems to run e85, also considering performance. Cheers

    Yea bro that sounds about right. Just need to find out what.

    Vf sv6 - High idle

    I recently cammed my vf sv6 series 2. However, after driving I soon realised that it was idling far too high at around 1050rpm. I’ve had two tuners set the idle at 700rpm through the ecu, however, in drive it still remains at 1050rpm. Before anyone suggests checking vacuum leaks, as I initially...

    Mace cams on vf sv6

    Hey, I've got all the necessary components for a cam upgrade in my vf sv6, including 210/210 mace cams, performance valve springs, etc.. I'm weighing up paying for someone to install, or doing myself. Does anyone have experience with cam installation on the lfx and the complexity? What are the...

    Putting vf ssv paddle shift on sv6

    So I just bought a wheel with paddle shifts off a wrecked 2017 Vf ssv. I have put it on my 2017 vf sv6 but the paddles don’t work. I understand that the bcm has to be reprogrammed? Does anyone know where I can get this done or what else I can do for the cheapest price? Cheers heaps

    Sv6 auto transmission problem after new lsd diff and 3.70 gears

    Hey everyone. For some reason when I downshift in sport mode my car doesn’t rev up like it’s meant to and instead just jolts without making a sound. 2 days ago I put in a new lsd diff with 3.70s and hadn’t had a problem until today. As I got in the car it threw an engine light and was flashing...

    Hole in intake manifold? (Vf sv6 series 2)

    So I’ve had cams and porting done, and my car idles too high (1000rmp) in drive, but lowers to 650-700 in park, neutral and reverse. I’ve had it tuned to be at 700 in drive and it won’t lower. I’ve checked for vacuum leaks with my tuner... and there was no sign. Here’s an imagine behind the...

    Vf Sv6 not launching

    I got a stealth throttle controller for free and took it out. Been there done that. They’re ok... but not worth it. And it didn’t fix this problem either. It has to be within ecu, but can’t find what

    Same thing bro. It goes up, down a little, and then hits the limiter afterwards.

My cars been cammed with intake and cylinder head porting + performance lifters and high-lift valve springs, full exhaust, OTR and custom trans and engine tune.
