Hi all As per @RevNev's suggestion at various points in this forum, I have finally found an extremely difficult to find set of large aftermarket rear mufflers, from an old RS Performance system (a rebranded VCM exhaust). My objective was to fit these large mufflers to achieve: a) A deep note...

Curiosity question; has anyone ever seen a pic of the underbody of a W427 or even more sacrilegious with the exhaust system pulled out? Was scrolling through random stuff looks like the W427 basically laid the pathway for the entire aftermarket with its intake and exhaust set up in 2008... Read...

Open question to the seemingly few owners who have this system - does anyone have any pics to share on ground clearance? Mine is below. Is this expected with this system? I'm hesitant to ask the shop that fitted it to correct it unless I'm 100% its an install issue as they can just say "its...

Hi guys I'm looking for options to firm the car up a little and have it roll/float less, whilst still maintaining a comfortable ride. The car is really a cruiser and again I want to ensure its comfortable on highways, long drives, and badly maintained roads. My 2014 Calais V L77 sedan has...

Hi guys One of my bi modal motors has carked it. I can't for the life of me find any used on Gumtree or Facebook, or Holmart new etc. Has anyone else experienced a failed motor and found where they can buy a replacement? I'm just about at the point of purchasing a whole new HSV muffler for...

Hi all, I thought I would write my first post giving back a bit of info after asking more than my fair share of questions to this fair community, and treat this as a story like format that progresses over a variety of topics as I write each post from my learnings and research into the car. I...

Hi guys Bought some used vf2 bi modal mufflers and didn't notice it at the time but the hanging points are very bent out of shape rendering it impossible to actually fit them myself, see pic. The tips hit the bumper bar before you can thread them through the hangers. These should sit dead...

I know this question has been asked in the past but prior threads are pretty old and/or were VE related not VF. Has anyone had a whole VF diff replaced in the past 2 years or so and how much did you pay? Not changing out the gears - doing a like for like replacement such as buying this as a...

Hi all Noticed this week my aircon stopped working on my Calais L77 V8 Popped my head under the bonnet and noticed there's an oil leak that didn't exist 6 months ago under the alternator. I think this is where the air con hose attaches on the left of the photo and the bottom part is covered in...

Hi guys just installed the Orssom OTR this arvo on my VF1 Calais V8, took me a lot longer than 30 minutes but got there in the end. Question is, the rubber piping doesn't look right as installed but can't work out what I've done wrong? No matter how I position it the rubber shroud looks...

Hi guys next question for the brains trust - is the VF sedan boot supposed to fully open when the open button is pressed (keyfob or button on drivers door)? I've spent 20 minutes googling this and can't find an answer, hence the question. Have a VF Calais V sedan, which has a SS lip spoiler for...

Hi guys - don't think this has been comprehensively covered I believe so asking the question. I have some questions with AFM on the VF1 series cars I'd love to get some definitive answers on: 1. What is the RPM cut for AFM to engage in 5th and 6th gear? I've read 3000rpm however I've noticed...
