Hi Guys. Looking at fitting a VY K frame into my VU Maloo. So I can get the camber arms, I've got the option on a sedan one from a V6, but I've been reading a few threads and people saying the suspension mounts are different on the sedans/wagons/utes? So is this conversion even possible? Cheers

Can somebody tell me if the VY Maloo tonneau cover will fit my VU Maloo? I've read somewhere the sailplanes are different

Ok so I'm pretty sure I've read nearly every thread on here about this problem. Time to start my own. I've had the system from my Monaro fitted to my replacement VY wagon, Pioneer Amp, Infinity 4ch amp and speakers. Worked great in the Munt-ro but now I have the dreaded whine. It's been back...

Looking for some opinions I'm getting out of my 2002 CV8 and considering a 2005 SS VY S2 manual Wagon What should I be looking for? Any comments from owners? I know it's not going to handle the same, it's basically the same LS1? What to look out for? Cheers

Hi guys, due to an excessive backlash issue with the Diff in my CV8 I've just fitted another from a VX SS i brought second hand. Being a manual they're not easy to find the right ratio, so when i found one i grabbed it. Fitted it up this afternoon, filled it with 75/140 fully syn oil plus...

I'm looking at replacing the stereo in my 2002 CV8 Monaro, can somebody please clarify a few things for me. What's this about the rear 2 sets of speakers running at 2ohms? From what i can find it looks as if the rear seat speakers and the rear parcel shelf speakers are running at 2 ohms...

ok so i've been down this road before but here we go again. My VS ute has had a VR 403 fitted, it's got this issue where it refuses to fire up. It's got good healthy spark but no injector pulse, shoot something flammable up the airbox and it fires. I've tried different ignition modules, a...

I've recently acquired a VS ute, had a VR304 fitted. It has headers, a reasonably open exhaust and supposedly "HSV enhanced" memcal. Trans has also been shift kitted. It idles fine when started but when shifting from Park to Reverse, or Neutral to Drive it often stalls, if it doesn't the revs...

I know it's a "what the hell?" type question, but has anybody ever done this? What's involved? Does a 304 fit a 3.8 ecotec sub-frame? Or do the sub-frames need to be swapped/modified?

So i have the dreaded no heater controls in my ute, there's only a tiny amount of vacuum coming down the black line at the control switch on the heater panel. Question is, should both hoses running to the vacuum pot be solid? One is easily crushed between my fingers. Is this the cause of my...

I know this question has been asked before, but from what i can find there's no definite answers on this one. Excuse the haters that say it's Blasphemy, we have two kids and i need to take them places, two seats just isn't an option. Are the mountings for the door side handbrake there in...

Hi Guys Wondering if anyone can shed some light on my issue, I've put a 34adm onto my VK black motor, which is fitted to my WB tonner. I can't seem to eliminate this rough "dieseling" effect as i come off closed throttle. It runs well up top and when cruising, but when you close the...

Hi Guys The Mr's VS SS has developed what we believe to be either a HEI fault or the Ignition module is poo. When it's hot, you're fanging along and it all goes dead, revs drop to zero, then the oil, batt and engine lights come up. Coast to a halt and it will fire up again after maybe 5mins...

Hi people, is there a HOW TO in this place on replacing a 304 clutch? I've had a decent search around but no luck. I was told by the kid i brought my clubbie off that it had a new clutch, given all the other **** wrong with this car I'd say he's telling lies. Either way the shuddering on take...

Hi guys just wondering if anybody out there is running, or has tried this combo? My WB admittedly is heavier than any VK out there, it's running a 3.3 black motor, 34ADM webber into a M76 5 speed and a 3.55 ratio salisbury diff. I'd like to gain some fuel economy and a bit more top end, so...

OK, so i have a high idle, in between gear changes it's slow to drop revs, almost like a sticking throttle, sitting at the lights it's idling at 1000revs. I've replaced the air filter with a k & n, cleaned the throttle body, MAF and idle sensors, timing is right. Can anyone give me an idea of...

Hi all, i have a VT clubsport with a buggered reverse sensor in the gearbox, Holden here wants over $100 for one, the plicks. My question is, will a V6 one fit the V8 gearbox? There's plenty of V6 ones at the wreckers

Does anybody know if there is a fuse that controls the reverse and inner brake lights? I figured if i had the external brake lights then my issue should not be a fuse one. The spoiler brake lamp still works, but not the inner brake lights on the boot, bulbs are all good, i have an earth...

Just picked up a VT clubsport, 5 litre with the 5 speed manual. Sucker has a whiney diff, whines more than me even... My question is, what ratio diff's were fitted to these things? Surely the answer is out there, i must be looking in the wrong place. Any input appreciated

OK, interested in some opinions here, I'm keen on a Camaro, love the look and was one of my dream cars when i was a kid. Now i can afford one so i guess that means i'm lucky, or stupid... I've driven a 1990 IROC 350 recently and to be honest i was disappointed, our VS SS would chew it up and...

Hi guys I know it's not a commodore but does anybody know where i can find the chassis number on my WB one tonner? From what i've read it's supposed to be on the top of the chassis rail up by the firewall, but i can't find anything there. I know there's one on the cab, but that's been...

Hi guys I have recently acquired another WB tonner after selling my old one way back and always regretting it. My old truck had a toyota celica 5 speed and i never had much luck with them, all the boxes i found were noisy plus they're also getting hard to find. So i currently have a 4...

Does anybody out there have a diagram of how the hoses for the VG fuel tank are supposed to be set up? I have a V6 VG and it's always had a fuel stink, i've replaced all the perished breather hoses but it left me scratching my head, there's THREE breather lines coming from the fill tube, two of...
