FOR SALE:

Make: Holden

Model: 2003 COMMODORE VY "Acclaim"; Sedan, 3.8L V6

Milage: 147,000 (ish - tad less)

Transmission: Auto

Colour: White

Location: Hornsby

Rego: Yes, June 2009

Price: $8,500 neg

Contact: DJ - 0422 646 173

Comments:

* Partial Service History

For those that don't know the difference (I didn't); the Acclaim has, over the commodore:

* 4 power windows

* 4 Air bags

* Cruise Control

* Speed dependant wipers, stereo volume

* few other accessories - basically, the Acclaim is referred to as an "Options" vehicle, over the Commodore.

EXTRAS INCLUDE:

* Nokia Blue tooth phone kit installed, hiden behind dash

* Modified stereo - plug an amp into the standard head unit for better sound and keep that stock look so no-one touches it. The other benefit is that this retains usage of the steering wheel controls etc.

THE BAD POINTS (Honest sale):

* Small leak in one of the radiator hosese - found the issue but haven't had the time / energy to fix

* Needs new tyres

If you wanted to throw a nice set of wheels on it, nice amp + speakers for sound; she'd be great.

Also, for full price, I will throw in a brand new set of rotors and pads (all 4 corners; still in boxes)

Reason for Sale:

I've had medical issues and have another car so I want to get rid of this one asap so it's one less thing I have to worry about.

Give me a call on 0422 646 173 to come and have a look

Cheers guys,

DJ

- yes, I know there's a bit of dirt there, that's all it is is loose dirt / dust

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
