Well if every manufacturer got it right the first time, than we would have no reason to discuss recalls would we? But the fact is it does happen.

I wonder what the reaction would be if this happened to Nissan? Doubt it would though, because Nissans are the greatest cars ever built, that never have any problems. *cough*

It is fuel you get it right or it goes bang no 2 ways about it you get it right its not like the door handles dont work or the windown dont work its fuel get it right.

Well i havent heard of a recall from Nissan in a long time and if it is its just piisy shit like windows or doors.

If your gona bag out nissan then why do you own half of one

Probably because I like the VL? Infact I don't hate Nissan (Why the f**k else would I say the RB30 is the best engine Holden never built under my Av?) I'm just in the mood, for a stir.

Im always up for a stir when holdens are involved lol lol.

holden nissan there both cool

caint we share our hatered of fords instead

lol ur signatures a bit strange u own a holden so ur pro holden but the got sig that slams holden lol. but it is true tho

I've been thinking to changing it to best 6 cylinder engine never built, as I love Holden V8s.

Might do that now actually.

haha these threads shit me... why all the hatred?

Its not that the car 'sucks', it is just a car that is not up to the quality of japanese and european manufacturers. The car is still of decent build quality though. I think they have done a decent job considering the market is only really 20 million in AUS (market is increasing slightly overseas).

What do you expect from a company that does not have the same amount of resources and money to spend on developing a world class car...

yes, holden have had another recall on the VE. this time it is to do with dodgy fuel lines causing engine bay fires.

they had a similar problem with the v8 within 2 months of it being released.

"I'm ready to goooooo!"

Isn't that the lyrics to the song that was and still is played on Commo commercials?

Lol

H.eap of S.h*t V.ehicle

It's nice to see someone who doesn't carry the typical "Holdens are shit" attitude, for a change.

If only all the Holden drivers are the same... I absolutely hate Holden purely because of the attitude of many of the scumbags that drive them - not all, but many.

Well same would go for skylines.... there are plenty of tossers who drive them like complete wankers, so why don’t you hate them?

Scumbags are everywhere driving every car, sure you get a lot of bogans driving Holdens but it’s probably because they grew up with Holdens around them. Being an aussie built car and having a large number of cars on the road due to their popularity, you are going to get a lot of Holden drivers.

If Nissan sold as many skylines domestically as Holden did, i'm sure the tables would turn and everyone would hate skylines as much as some people hate Holdens (and Fords for that matter).

You probably get the exact same 'ratio' of scum driving skylines, but obviously on much lesser scale. There are probably a million more Holdens on the road... so if 1 in 10 drivers are scum, Holden would have 100,000 scum drivers (out of a million) where as skylines probably have 2000 drivers (out of 20,000). That would be why it 'seems' there are so many wankers driving Holdens.

No, it sounds like you hate the people more than the actual cars.

Yes there are "scumbags" that drive Holdens, but there are "scumbags" that drive Imports too. In most cases are actually worse.

o now we are going after fords

i dont think so....

gm can bag tag themselves,we all know ford is superior and nissan shits on em both :D

Plain fact is that holdens are cheap as f**k,so any bum can buy one with centrelink money and enough for a goonbag,where as you need to be classy enough and have some kind of reasonable job to own a skyline.

lol now thats funny new commy about 35 g r33 start around 10 g under your thinking all the doleies would be driving skylines or maybe you have had one sip too many from ya goonbag

Hahahaha now that's funny. Reasonable job to own a Skyline?

Skylines aren't that expensive, unless it's something like a GTR. I'm sorry, but if you think you need a reasonable job to afford a average Skyline please jump off a cliff, and make sure you land head first on the rocks below.

I have also never heard of anyone saying you need to be classy enough to own a Skyline. God maybe you should buy a Merc or something.

    • I removed the head expecting to find broken and bent valves, but instead found number 1 at TDC and cylinder 2 at the top of its cylinder stroke as well, thought that was weird and proceeded to push cylinder 2 back down until it either bottomed out on its other piston half or the conrod either way we found the issue kind of,  now to remove the engine and see how the block looks, hopefully its just the top off a piston.  
    • A little more work this week.  Fitted astra power steering pump in the boot with a lowe fabrication bracket. Gave the pump a good clean, fitted Anderson plug and high pressure fitting. With the intercooler being flipped under rad support factory headlights weren't going to work. Ordered a set of origin battle lights, they arrived so got them test fitted. Will require some fiddling to fit nice but was an easy quick option for now. And today we pulled out the manual Rb gearbox and test fitted a ZF 8HP50. It will fit with some casting tabs cut off and small tap of the tunnel with a hammer. Pick up the adapter plate Wednesday so hopefully all bolted in Friday and measure for tailshaft which will be a 2 piece. Been doing a lot of ecu, pdm and tcu loom design so when comes to wiring it in a few weeks will all go smoothly.
    • FYP. Sadly. Even bolt cutters wouldn't take 2 sec. But in the days of 18v angle grinders, nothing is safe.
    • One piece driveshaft I would recommend a dual CV setup otherwise stick to OEM. I have heard most one piece driveshafts cause excess vibration otherwise. The transmission grind I'm quite familiar with. You can try shockproof gear oil, otherwise you need a new transmission. The shifter is extremely simple on these cars. If you want pull apart the assembly and replace the plastic bushing but I doubt that fixes anything. The tail light issue is very common, unfortunately new tail lights are long discontinued. The trunk antenna going up always is because your radio doesn't have a true power antenna control, just remote amp power signal. There is a blank switch plate that you can pop out and install a switch for this or alternatively source a head unit that has proper antenna control. Throttle body sticking you have to disambiguate by disconnecting the cable and seeing if the linkages are the problem or something else. There is a procedure to adjust them, refreshing them is also somewhat involved if that's the issue. I have dealt with many of these issues. Old cars really are fractals of problems. The more you fix the more you discover there is to fix.
