    [General] How to: Change bonnet struts, a beginner's guide.

    Many a time I've seen people struggle with boot lids and tailgates which won't hold themselves up in shopping centre car-parks, and I've sure we've all had, or heard of someone who's had a bonnet come crashing down on their heads. It boggles my mind why people continue to struggle with the...

    The Random Picture Thread.

    Pinched this idea from another forum which I'm on, figured it might go down well here. The point is simple; Having camera phones these days tempts us to capture images in our day-to-day lives. Some are pointless, some are funny, some are just plain and simply for the hell of it: "Because I...

    VZ centre console: Acc power to constant power.

    Quick question. Today I wired up a 12v accessory plug into the boot of the wagon. I've got a double-adapter plugged into the 12v socket in the centre console, then one wire running down the side of the console, under the rear carpet, then up the side of the boot area into the pocket where the...

    VZ - Weird headlight issue.

    Okay, I noticed this the other night, this problem has come from (seemingly) nowhere. I have a VZ wagon with aftermarket fog-lights (plugged into the factory loom). I was driving and I switched on my foggies for a bit of extra light when I noticed one side was considerably brighter than the...

    Deadlock your car - It could pay off.

    As some of you would be aware, some Commodores come with a deadlock feature. I know my VZ has it, and my missus' parents' VT has it, so I'm assuming all models from VT onwards must have it. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. Anyway, the deadlock is enabled by pushing the lock button on...

    [VZ] VZ and VE - How to change the oil and filter on your Alloytec. (Detailed pictures)

    Changing your own oil, particularly on these Alloytec motors, is a pretty simple task. Plus it can save you money in the long run. Furthermore, who doesn't like tinkering with their car every now and then? Enough chit-chat, what do you need? -A new cartridge oil filter (Ryco R2605P or...

    I got bored, so I put a hole in my head. Warning: Graphic images.

    So I was at a mate's place for a BBBQ last night, and eventually we all started shooting some hoops, as you do. I went up for a lay-up, and the ball must have pushed on the ring at the wrong angle, and the pole holding up the ring decided to give up, probably because it was rusted all the way...

    Boiling coolant?

    Went down to the bike shop today to get a few bits and pieces, and upon returning to the car, I noticed a strange burbling noise when I got inside. Thinking something had broken and I was dumping all my oil, I popped the hood and jumped out to see what was going on. No oil catastrophe, however...

    VX LS1 wagon cat-back - Bolt up to VZ?

    Sup. As the title suggests, would a cat-back exhaust from a VX V8 wagon bolt up to a VZ (V6) wagon? I'm guessing it would fit as they're basically the same chassis, but I'm obviously not 100% certain on the differences such as cat and/or muffler locations and whatnot. Thanks, Luke.

    Luke's 2007 VZ Acclaim wagon.

    Here she is, folks, my first car. 2007 VZ Acclaim wagon with 150 on the clock. Got it for a pretty good price through an auction yard, as it's an ex-fleet vehicle. Goes well, I'm very happy with it. Heaps of space for bikes (My main reason for getting a wagon) and plenty of room for me to...

    Sticky rear window - VZ wagon

    Sup. Bought a VZ wagon, and I take delivery of it sometime this week. One issue that's gonna bug me, is the rear driver's side window is a bit sticky. When it's going down, it's slow until it's about half way down, then goes at normal speed. Same thing going up, but in reverse. It'll be...
