When i fill through the shifter hole, take out the plug on the side that is meant for filling it and just pour in through the shifter hole and get a mate to tell you when it starts coming out of the side hole, then its full.

Yea, i meant powder coating, i was overly tired last night, probably should have posted that today. Any places that you guys would recommend?

Marshall Powder Coaters in Wingfield did my covers... cheap as too

Easy. Jack up car, undo plug on the bottom of the gearbox, drain, replace plug, and top up either through the plug on the side of the box (hand pump is very helpful in this instance) or through the shifter hole (with the shifter removed).

If filling through the plug on the side, stop filling when the fluid starts coming out (obvious).

If filling through the shifter hole, just add the prescribed amount of fluid (I can't tell you how much).

Thanks again guys

Seconded.

Or Art Metal Coatings in Holden Hill.

Avoid the place on Main North near Gepps cross like the plague.

That's kinda the look they were going for...

Interior is basically Cruze bits anyways (steering wheel, dash cluster etc etc)

The Holden owning fraternity will be up in arms.........the final model Commodore (going by predictions) and they FINALLY put the window controls in the armrest in the door

They also moved the boot release onto the drivers side. No idea why they had it in the glove box.

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
