I went with the Eaton. I just couldn’t find enough feedback on the Mace

So I pulled the trigger on the Truetrac. Really happy with the work done, and even some of the driveline clunks that I had with the factory centre are gone!

Right I’m set on just replacing my center, now back to the original question of the Mace vs Trutrac. The Mace is half the price here but I am happy to pay for the better product.

Thanks that’s reassuring, I just don’t want to compromise on safety!

Ok, I am leaning towards a truetrac or similar based on various recommendations and my research. In terms of functionality, are there any downsides compared with the factory cone lsd? As above I am weary of being caught out with it suddenly opening up if hitting a zero-traction surface

There’s not a lot of love for the factory diff that’s for sure. One of my concerns with the Truetrac and similar style is getting caught out from the near zero-traction condition where there is no torque transfer. Does a properly functioning factory unit behave the same?

Yes, would be great to get some feedback based on real world experience. Otherwise I will consider just an overhaul on the factory lsd, as you pay through the roof here for Harrop’s!

Hi guys, I’m looking to overhaul my factory VTII SS diff before getting a mild tune, as although there is no significant issues now, I want to ensure longevity and performance post 180k kms! Has anyone had experience with the Mace Engineering Torque-Lock center? I am wondering how these...

Is this the ppk setting? Once it is corrected the car will be safe to drive, at least to the tuner who I would ask to calibrate on the dyno?

Hi all, I have a factory VTII SS auto. I’m about to get a rebuild on the lsd and change out the diff gears to new 3.46 from the old 3.07. Following that I am getting an ECU tune and dyno. I understand some parameters will be out upon changing the gear ratio. The tuner is a couple of hundred...

Yes the VS Statesman 50th Anniversary wheels you reference are the same. Hi Ho Silver seems to be used for on the VP GTS wheels. Pics generally look close that’s for sure! You don’t happen to have that list handy do you?

Hi guys, I know there are some old threads around this topic but they seemed inconclusive. My VT SS wheels have minor rash and I am wanting to restore them so they look like they did the day they left the factory. A refinish will be required but it seems there is no known paint code. A...

Looks tidy mate, very nice

Are there any VT's out there with VY R8 wheels? Have always liked the maloo shadow chrome variation however they don't come up often so am wondering if the standard silver set would suit a black VT.

I just used 8 inch width as per most Holden 17 and 18 inch rims to fit a VX. Offset is not relevant to diameter but for an 8 inch Holden rim an offset of 48 is common.
