    STREETFIGHTER COMMODORE 1000HP IN-TANK FUEL MODULE (VE-VF)

    https://www.kpmmotorsport.com.au/product/streetfighter-commodore-1000hp-in-tank-fuel-module-ve-vf/ Anyone have any feedback on this setup? Seems cheap and simple being returnless compared to the Squash and AI in tank set ups. My fuel system is maxed and looking to run E85/Flex. Can’t find...

    VF oil temp sensor

    Does anyone know if the VF has an actual oil temp sensor? My Ngauge has 2 oil temp PIDS, “estimated oil temp”, and “oil temp from sensor” They both read differently. But my mate, who used to work in the Holden service department for a long time, is adamant there is no sensor, and that it’s an...

    Driveshaft (axle) knock??

    So my bad luck with the diff in my VF continues. Ever since installing new Truetrac there has been a knock coming from the diff area of the car, a deep knock that gets faster with road speed. But strangely goes away after about 20 mins of driving. Just had the car back to diff builder, who...

    Replacing valve springs

    What sort of mileage should you get out of a set of valve springs? I have PSI single beehives. Being single I’m paranoid about one breaking and dropping a valve. I’m pretty anal when it comes to maintenance. Springs are rated to .625” lift and my cam .598” .602” You don’t hear of people...

    Truetrac diff oil

    What diff oil are people using? Eaton recommends an 80w90 mineral with no friction modifiers, hard to find anything without the modifiers. Truetrac needs an amount of friction for the torque biasing to work properly. All I can find is HD Penrite gear oil but it only comes in 20L drums. The...

    Steering rack recall

    Can anyone recommend a dealer in Melbourne that they completely trust that could do this for me? I have been putting it off, even thinking about not bothering as I have zero confidence in anyone at a Holden dealership touching my car. Even more so now that they are possibly looking at losing...

    Reverse lockout

    Last time I was at Heathcote, would do burnout, then the car wouldn’t go into reverse. Car is manual. Would have to get pushed back or turn the car fully off and restart. The last few runs I made sure I didn’t go past. I’ve run it before and had no issues. And during normal driving since it...

    Creaking coilovers

    Hi all, the drivers side strut has developed a creaking noise when turning at low speeds, and only when the car warms up. The coilovers are XYZ's and have only done about 4000kms. 5000kms for the whole car. Here is a vid with the noise. Any ideas? http://youtu.be/3CYJ7qMp778

    Adrenalin track day at Sandown

    I'm looking at doing a track day in my SSV. This would be my first ever. I would rate my driving skill as intermediate, in saying that have never done anything like this, apart from a few runs down the strip in my old rotaries back in NZ. I'm just wondering if anyone has done this particular...

    Halo headlights for VF

    Does anybody know of anyone in OZ that can build halos into my factory headlights? And what are the legalities with doing it? Seen a G8 in the U.S. With them, he sourced the halos and built them himself. Looks sick. Think they would really suit my car, not the colour changing ones, just...

    HSV Headers and cats

    Have been looking for a pair of HSV headers and cats for a while, have been offered a pair out of an E3 GTS for $150. My question is, the car they came from has done 110,000 kms, will the cats still be doing their job and flowing correctly? As a side note the car is new and that's why I'm...

    Pandora won't work

    So I have the app on my phone (iPhone 5s) and the phone paired via Bluetooth, but the pandora icon on My Link won't light up? Do I need to do something else? Couldn't find anything on the search. Thanks.
