  1. I've thought about getting that set, but then realised I still have no idea about wiring!
  2. Enjoy the approach to the last corner with the downshift and braking!
  3. oooh looks like some kind of website issue yes! [email protected] if you need to contact them
  4. You need a bigger lounge room for all your parts....
  5. Not forgetting that you are comparing the previous generation of models, the VE is completely new!

How to book: use our online booking form http://www.circuitclub.com.au/node/26 and pay securely via PayPal What you need: a helmet, and to be dressed in long sleeved clothing with closed-in shoes & socks. Please ensure there are no fluid leaks or loose objects that could be dropped on the track during your session. Wakefield Park also requires a track licence which costs ~$20 for the day or ~$50 for an annual licence (I'm not sure about the current prices now so if in doubt, please call Wakefield Park to check in advance).

  11. No hard cover for me, trust me the amount of times i've carried things like tables, chairs, fuel containers etc that sit higher than the sides i'd be forever removing/reinstalling the hard cover every second weekend.
  12. Had 3 of those, all broken junk (actually still have the third 1 in my garage leaking oil everywhere that is free to a good home if someone wants to buy another seal kit for it) bought myself a quality Armstrong jack instead, longer lower and reliable!
  13. Their is a second mechanism (like the old ford style) that is inside the tonneau cover that can be used and clips onto the outside lip.
  14. That is the factory soft tonneau cover. Along the top of the ute body their is a groove and on the edge of the cover their is a plastic clip and u just push it over and it locks into position the whole way around.
  15. I'm a Holden bloke so obviously I went with the SSV didnt even bother looking at the Ford range of utes. The torque of the 6.0L V8 is so incredibly effortless, even at 160kmh it doesnt sound like the engine is doing more than 80kmh they are just so smooth and quiet, way better engine than the worked RB26 of my last GTR which you had to wring its neck with rpm to get it to perform. But then this engine is brand new, not 20yrs old like my last engine and also more than double the capacity. As for getting a Ford over a Holden because the Ford can take 1 ton in the tray, yeah good luck. The back would be so low to the ground you'd never get out of your driveway not to mention how dangerous it would be to drive. Most tradies wouldn't have more than 200-300kg in the back anyway.
  16. Yes you need 1, yes it needs to be bolted in and within reach from your drivers seat.
  17. Your problem is the first 60ft on the track, forget about more power etc etc get the factory rims and some MT drag radials and watch it do an 11.9sec
  18. No an actual vice, like a bench vice. Do a search on the supercheap website for gripwell vice to see what I mean as they are a variant of a bench vice so are lighter to hold. You turn it upside down and slide the jaws inbetween the piston/caliper and the rotor (as if you were clamping down on the rotor) but instead of winding the vice handle tight on the rotor reverse the handle and it will open the vice jaws hence pushing the pistons back.
  19. Go to SuperCheap Auto and buy there $40 "gripwell vice". Cut the jaws down to size with a hacksaw so they fit inside your calipers (had to cut about 10mm off each side from memory) if you are using the factory 4 spot calipers and simply turn the handle in reverse (instead of tight to hold a piece of steel you open the jaws up so they push the brake pistons back into the calipers). This worked perfectly every single time I used it and it pushes all pistons back together at an even rate/pressure. I'd take a pic of the 1 I modified but I threw it out when I sold my gtr's.
  20. http://www.gordonleven.com/motorsport/ New and used.
