Yes I placed the K&N in there. Cheers Marty

Hey I have a stupid question, but you know how aftermarket head decks sit in the dash? They are on a angle then between the stereo and the air vents above there is that dash lip, can a flip out 7 inch screen fit and flip out without hitting that lip on the dash it's the one that says berlina or Calais what ever I want to get one but not sure of it will fit? That's my stupid question thanks Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

They will come out,But in most cases will hit the controll binacle for the rear window demister. Cheers Marty

I've had K&N filters in every single car I've owned, from 4s, 6s, 8s, N/A, turbo and supercharged, and never had an issue

anyone know what VL turbo injectors are worth ?

So can someone send me a photo of a flip out head deck, that's flipped out I can't seem to find anything about them :/ pm them to me please as I don't want to spend a mint on a nice one to realize it looks **** haha

This was a trail run when I was restoring her,I did not install it in the end.I did not want to alter the dash when putting it in.As the screen could not tilt all the way back becouse of the binacle. Cheers Marty Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

hey guys, can anyone help the mechanic said i had too many fuel regulators installed, but i think he's put me crook. I have put the VL fuel tank in with the in tank pump and external as per factory, i also left the fuel reg from the donor car motor came from. that reg is after the fuel lines in engine bay before fuel rails to injectors, theres also the small one at the end on injector rail (still with me?) 304 injected 185kw VR Clubsport motor if that helps. Now the mechanic removed the one from the end of fuel lines from tank saying i had too many regs and it didnt need it. But now it feels like shes straving for fuel, bit gutless. is he correct or should i put it back in? any help would be great ---------- Post added 22-12-12 at 07:54 ---------- never mind, turns out its the fuel damper he removed, which shouldnt effect it being slugish.

Thanks for the photo mate Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

hey guys. have recently had the dash apart to install a head unit in my vl. today realised my central locking is not working, is there any plugs I could have forgotten to connect behind the dash that would cause it to stop working???

Nothing behind the dash that you should of disconected,Have a look at the two relays in the fuse box(no 7 and 8)The two closest to the bottom corner of the front screen. Cheers Marty

cheers for that. tried a couple of new relays to rule them out but nothing changed. can hear relays clicking when I flick the drivers lock switch. I can unlock all the doors with the drivers lock switch, but cannot lock them. its got me a bit puzzled. ---------- Post added 29-12-12 at 20:35 ---------- something worth mentioning aswell, when I play with the lock switches I get a interference noise through the speakers

Might be unrelated to the dash removal. Maybe a wire has been crushed in door jam and its earthing out?

Must be the CAS change it Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Done some investigationing on Swaybars today..... In the Holden Parts Book- Standard front bar is 26mm Standard rear bar is 18mm "Performance Suspension Equipment" (FE2) front bar is 24mm "Performance Suspension Equipment" (FE2) rear bar is 16mm Why does FE2 (what I consider heavy duty suspension) have smaller diameter bars than standard suspension? Reason I ask is I picked up a huge (22mm) rear bar today but am cautious about fitting it...Would it make the rear too stiff and cause it to skate across the road instead of getting traction? I'm hella confused Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
