    VF SS Sway bars/coilovers info

    I'm also in Brisbane and will be getting MCA Pro comfort fitted by MCA about mid year. Have heard great things about their coilovers and as MCA are located in Brisbane it's a no brainer for me.

    Unlocking Tuner Locked ECU

    I know this is an old thread but for ppl who are searching on how to unlock, lsXtreme and Envous Customs can unlock your ECU and leave the current tune intack. It does come at a price tho.

    What did you do in the shed or garage today

    Oh and while I'm in this forum... About 2mths ago I made the decision to downgrade the cam that was fitted during my V6 to V8 conversion. A few reasons...hated the high idle and l just wanted the car to have as close to OEM drivability as possible. Not into the lumpy cams or high dyno numbers...

    Installed LED lights, now throwing codes

    Hope these are clear enough. I opted for the blackened surrounds which makes it hard to see the projector housings.

    Maloo side skirts

    I also have the Mr Bodykits skirts. You have to trim the edge of the skirt in the area where the jack point is located. Pretty easy with the dremel

    What’s the best sized stall for my cam?

    Well, standard idle is around 550rpm, mine now idles very smoothly at 700. Pushing on the brakes is now back to where stock felt like and feels so much better.
