Holden - Go Better....


Recommended Posts

After $1 Billion in development it would want to.

My ass..what a tax dodge.....

I mean at $10K profit a car..they would have to make 100,000 cars before they have break even.

Which equates to 2 years approx. production...especially at the rates they are going now.

Off the topic I know....

On the topic ...........I would much rather they advertise..the home grown...family....country tourer

that this car is.....large...able to do the job you bought it for...with great looks and styling.

Do you realise how many commodores they make? They are exported to the United States, United Arab Emirates, China....They do make a lot of commodores

And they sell the current model for more than one or two years... But I am sure they just made up the $1Billion dollar figure

It wasnt just $1b for the current model VE but everything involved in making the VE, also that chassis will continue on for a couple of years more yet.

For the streets i'd happly drive a VE SV6 or above over my r32 gtr any day.

havent seen the ad yet, but coming from a VE SS must say for 45K brand new it would have to be one of the best family cars with balls goin around. 13.4 quarter from factory is almost R33 GTR factory times !!!!!

But in saying that my old 94 model GTR with just an exhaust and air filters would tear the ass out of the VESS straight line or on the track..... GO THE BIG RED R !!!!!

Until you need to cart a family around or furniture.

I personaly like the SS ute commercial for holden and the evolution of the ute..... and the best bit at the end "Evolution ends here" ???? Now does this mean that they will no longer be making and new versions of the ute??? because i would say that if the evolution of the ute ends, then so does the ute. So go buy a new ute and when they bring out the next model, you can go and get a free upgrade as you bought the ute origionally knowing that it was the last because they said in the commercial that "Evolution ends here". so they made you buy it under false pretences..... sorry i was really bored and have a very overactive imagination. but you do see my point... its false advertising

    • I installed it all myself,  It was really easy to install.  I got a professional to do the degas/gas.
    • Finally had some time after working on other projects to jump back on this thing. Pulled all 4 wheels to check the brakes over and lucked out, only needed to bleed them/change fluid to get everything working!    Took it for its first quick spin (around 2km) up the road and ran great! Sounds like I have a left rear wheel bearing that needs replacing and there’s a shake in the steering wheel but the tires are absolutely junk on this thing and had been sitting flat when I went to first look at the car so we’ll see if that’s the cause.   Tach randomly started working but I notice if my hicas light comes on the tach stops working 🙃 yay for electrical gremlins 
    • Bunnings car park it is! if you buy the kind of dampers with the adjustable top on the strut you can see it, red, purple? So many options.
    • Yeh a meagre benefit, what strut tower brace are you using? Eventually all the suspension and tyres are done and you get to ... meagre benefits. Narrow end of the wedge, all that stuff.
    • Yeh not doing anything with spacers at all, ty for the info
