Hi Guys,

Since selling the S13, I'm now left with three cars. One is for the wife and kids and the other two are for me but I'm thinking about selling one or both of them to replace the s13 with another street/track car (too many cars = too much spending $$$). One is a 1990 NA MX5 turbo and the other is the Holden Commodore. I'm tempted to keep the MX5 turbo as my street/track car so I'll start with the Commodore.

Details

Make: Holden

Model: Commodore Executive VT series 2

Year: 2000

Engine: 5.7 litre V8

Trans: 6 speed manual

Odo: 286,000kms (35,000kms on engine)

Colour: Silver (Tungsten)

Rego: 15th Aug 2011

Location: Sydney, NSW

Price: $10,500 ono

Factory Options

The car is an executive but has all the HSV/SS options and has an HSV enhanced build plate. This was ordered by the original owner and I was given the original order form.

- HSV suspension (not FE2 as standard on the SS - don't know the difference but this is indicated on the order form)

- LSD

- Power windows front and rear

- Air conditioning

- Power steering

- Cruise control

- 5.7 litre V8

- 6 speed manual transmission

- Metallic paint

- Removeable tow bar

Modifications:

- Engine was rebuilt approx 35,000kms by previous owner using standard parts (I have receipts detailing the build and totaling $7500)

- Supercat 2.5inch twin exhaust system

- 18inch Genuine Monaro wheels

- Air conditioning system completely rebuilt with new parts totalling over $1100 in Sep 2010 (12 month warranty)

- Polyurethane suspension bushes in front end

- Tinted windows

Overall, the body and paint are in very good condition. There are a couple of small dents here and there with the worst one being on the rear drivers side quarter panel underneath the petrol cap. The front bar and rear bars have a few scratches but nothing too major. I can get these repaired and painted if I get the asking price.

I am the second owner of the car and as stated above, I was given the original order form and complete log books. I was also given the receipt for the engine rebuild. I have been using this car as my daily drive and other than the Air/con issue, it has given me absolutely no issues whatsoever.

I'm happy for an inspection to be carried out on the car. I'm am located in the Liverpool area in NSW and can be reached on 0407 931 097 for any questions.

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
