whos up for a ute cruise in melb ??????

[seevee8]

a ute cruise?? sounds cool!
can a munro tag on the back of ya's?

[googers]

ute cruize sounds awesome but i really think we wait maybe a month or 2 for the weather to get a bit better! Melbs weathers been all over the shop lately, sunny, then pissin down then storms etc etc. September - October when the weathers a little more prodictable and nicer (maybe?!)

[ROY DAVIS]

Hi
Since a pic of an Impulse blue Lumina Ute SS has already been posted there is no point in posting mine although mine is branded Chevrolet as I am in South Africa. Mine is the 250 kw. 2005 model. I would like to get more power out of it but mods are expensive. Any ideas for do-it-yourself mods or inexpensive ones?
I notice that all these motors are force fed by supercharging not turbocharging. The latter seems more efficient. Any idea why they do not turbo?
ROY

[iamhappy46]

Hey Roy,

I am going turbo shortly :) Supercharging is popular but they both have benefits.

As for modifying your car, a dual 2.5" exhaust is a worthwhile upgrade and talk to one of the tuners about getting a MAFless tune done by sending your ECU over to Australia.

Nice one sideways. l just got mine and having the back chev badge painted as we speak.(Quick Silver) :)

After looking for a Traytop I couldnt go pass this Ute. It will be my weekender for now, too low for work so still might trade it down the track for a VZ Tonner......Ive booked in for a Club Drive Day with Track Skill at Mallala Motor Sport Park for next week..(only car ive driven last 9 years is my 283 auto WB Tonner)
P.S Can you spot the mods??

[transcend VUSS]

nice ride man
just wondering what work had to be done to put in the Billet fuel cap??
my stock one is all scratched and looks shoddy, was thinking of replacing, but with one like yours........whos the company that supplies those things????

[E11R]

The cap is bolt on with Sparco name on it to highlite the SS badge.The guy who did all the mods owned Emtech in Adelaide so the ute was used for display over the years.

NICE Ute ,
fuel filler looks good BUT $270, ?? on sparco site and it is still a dummy the way it has been put on can you get cheaper fake ones ?

http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e111/abbeystump/DSC01049.jpg

why have you got a nitrous gauge and boost gauge and i see in the engine bay pic you have none?

[E11R]

The ute was used to display the Emtech products so they picked those gauges to set off the carbon fibre console.(at lease there ready if I go NITRO ) :eyes:

[patto (dro9it)]

some killer utes in here!
mines not much yet, stock except a dual 2.5" cats back exhaust. as its my work car not my main project.. but still plans are for 18's, stereo, the split engine covers and some more power!

Nice tray top. I will be looking to trade my VY SS for a tray top soon!!!!!

[patto (dro9it)]

thanks fellas, i think theres something wrong with it, the back tyres seem to leave black marks everywhere :smilesandbanana:

and e11r, start looking now mate. 90% of the ones i looked at were overpriced and underserviced, took me 2 months to find this one at a holden dealer.

[blackbettyhsv]

guys its not a commadore ute but we had to sell the vs malloo cause it was too hard to get the motor bike in the back with the spoilers & too low for the paddocks, so we got the rodeo, its a bit low also but its a lot more user friendly for the bikes. it actually gets more looks than the vs did. pretty much brought it the way it is near sydney , 04 model with 06 tub $2400 worth of wheels 18 inch flash stereo timber s wheel gear knob & peddles,we plan on getting more chrome around the front for bit more bling, its a fun thing to drive & a bit cheaper to run than the old 5 litre, does'nt have the V8 note but its doing the job, until we look at the VE utes that ishttp://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p98/blackbettyhsv/brutus005.jpg

[philstoj]

Heres a few pics of my ute, its not a Holden though, but has served me well as a workhorse and a bit of play.

Its been on quite a few ls1 cruises and also a few drag days (its been a while though)

all good here ,thats nice mate . The AU in ute form always looked good , AU XR looks better than BA too imo. Still not keen on the split cab / tray though.

[blackbettyhsv]

blackbetty you mean that rodeo is a 94 not an 04 yeah ?

patto my fault sorry yeh 94 model, but we like the 06 tub compared to 94 tub it gives ours a better look, a few people thought it was a yanky ute of some type

[VZ_V8]

well heres mine.... nothin special..... and yep its only a 6 banger.....

"nothin special" dont pull yourself down pal, thats one sweet ute and not over the top! very clean engine bay looks very well looked after, and to say your 18, top ride keep up the good work!

[VZ_V8]

cheers mate, dont get me wrong i love it and it took a s#!^ load of work for it to get like that but compared to some its not up there....

[patto (dro9it)]

cleanest v6 engine bay ever! ****in awesome ute mate

[VZ_V8]

cheers for the comments guys, i try hard to keep the car clean. I dw about the outside so much in winter maybe a wash every 3 weeks because generally it rains the day after anyway, but the rest i try to keep as clean as possible.
Even the insides are clean!!!...

[ss50]

There are some awsome utes in here! I have an vu ss50, had a bit of a play just 2.5" twin exhaust, pacemaker 4 into 1 extractors, hi-flow cats, 3000 hi-stall, I did have big plans for it but it looks like it will be going soon with my first bub on the way. I would post pics but can't yet, havn't posted enough yet apparently.

VU-V6 - you can still get a nice bit of power out of the old six!

[VZ_V8]

yeh to a point without FI. I will get it dynoed when i get it tuned after a new diff with 3.46s. The Yella Terra whipple 2.3L twin screw blower claims it can get 300-400RWKW out of this motor seems very high though....

[coombesy]

how do u put pics up?... i want to put my ute up and get some thoughts but cant figure it out!!.. not the best when it comes to computers!

[VZ_V8]

sign up at www.photobucket.com then all you need to do is press add photo, upload, then underneath the photo it comes up with all the URLs once its uploaded. Just click the IMG code one which automatically copies it, then paste into your post. There are heaps of threads on this topic so if you still cant work it out, do a search on the topic and there are probably more detailed threads, it is really easy though.

[coombesy]

okay well dont know if the pics will work!..
well just a couple pics of my VY S II.
more pics soon.. tell me your thoughts!

The man with the gun decided I did not need my work vehicle for a few weeks :confused: The courts ruled otherwise :rofl:

I have also recently fitted a Magnaflow 1300Hp fuel system and 8L surge tank with upgraded lines and fittings. Also fitted the battery into the tray and spaced the old engine bay battery tray about 3" higher in the engine bay.

I'll post up a few more pics in a few days.

here's pics of my new SSV series VE Ute. Picked it up yesterday - Atomic Metalic with leather and hard lid. went for a long cruise yesterday and another early this morning!! what a joy! full review to follow, once i can get out of the thing.

pics are from mobile phone:


so do we get to see some pics of this thing?

[VU_SS_UTE]

They're delivered already, there's some in Tassie so I dare say they'd be in most other states already too!

[chrism697]

they have not begun volume production yet.

some dealers have been given "saleable" off tool cars to be displayed, but that is different to cars rolling off an assembly line.

I agree with you Chris.

I went to the VE Ute preview here in Perth last week, and Holden told us that they would not be on sale until October. So I am highly sceptical that a member of the general public has already picked theirs up.

Where are the pics that he 'tried' to post too? :confused:

Oh ok, well you probably know more than I do, but I just assumed given they were sitting in dealers in little old Tassie already someone could easily have one already...
Obviously not though, wonder if you can test drive them yet???

It looks as if the graphics been sprayed on, yes?

What material have you used for the interior upgrade? Suede?

[biante12]

The graphics are a new type of colour shift vinyl out of the States. The one used is red/blue.

Currentrendz adapted my design to get the final result. Interior is black suede

Hey Biante12, seen your ute at the show and shine.
Looked immaculate, very nice.
how do ya find the race seats to sit in? comfy?
After seeing how good they looked in your ute, i been contemplating throwing a set in mine. I'm hoping to get a bit more active in track days etc.

[biante12]

Mungrel, they are the most comfortable seats I've ever sat it. Cause you sit IN them instead of ON them, they support the body and you dont get aches or feel tired after long drives.

They aint cheap though

sweet ute champ. just wondering did you change the bonnet or did someone else? contemplating one for mine but not sure if it'll be a headache?

[SSidewayz]

One of the best examples Ive seen of the new Maloo. Its the perfect angle because it doesnt show the back at all or hard lid, and its the perfect colour because black is best + it dosent highlight the crappy plastic bit on the skirts. What were they thinking with the tail lights-tailgate-hardcover-jap diffuser style rear bumper????? :spew:

[iloveholden]

That black maloo is :bow::bow::bow::bow:

It reminds me a lot of the old HSV concept HRT ute thing. Remember that blue ute with the large wheels arches and i think it had silver highlights.
GREAT stuff! :drool:

[lowriding]

yep it looks amazing . I knew the reaction would change on the VE utes when they started hitting the streets !

[VRUTE355]

Very nice Maloo what a tough stance..........

[iloveholden]

Is it just that angle or is that Maloo's tint really dark?

[PBoB]

Yeah it probably is pretty dark, the body colour would be affecting the look of the tint too (making it look darker).

That's a perfect photo with absolutely no sun glare.

[PBoB]

Hey all, I think I finally figured out how to host pics, so here's some of my ute. It's stock atm, but I've planned a full exhaust system, mafless, otrcai, lowered with I was thinkin some white 19's, what do you reckon? Probably diff gears and kitted auto later on.

Classy ute, classy photography .But has there ever been a bad photo of a maloo. I think i will take a lesson in photography from this and pick destinations and light a bit more carefully.:bravo:

[rodneyson]

here are some pics of my ute, it has a genttr kit on it, 224/230 comp cam and 918 valve springs, tex clutch, arp rod bolts, front mount intercooler, pwr alloy radiator and few other mods

Classy ute, classy photography .But has there ever been a bad photo of a maloo. I think i will take a lesson in photography from this and pick destinations and light a bit more carefully.:bravo:

camera angles ALWAYS make a shot look better...
i always try to take shots from headlight height so you get a more even look to the car... if you are up too high the car seems to look small, and won't appear to look in scale and proportion in the frame...
its ok if you are aiming for the effect or want a shot into an engine bay...

also pay careful attention to the angle the sun is, or where lighting is coming from, and how the car looks in its surroundings...
and get yourself a semi-decent tripod too if you plan to take a lot of dark photo's in low light situations... you'll really notice a difference!!!

look at things other than the car... look for people walking around that might appear to be walking in the car or appear to stick out of the roof... be careful not to have power poles, street signs, tree branches and the like coming out of the roof...



but in this age of digital camera's you really can't go wrong!!!
so get out with your car and have a play, its the best way to learn!!!

[NOYES]

some nice utes, love the VE maloo its hot

Hey TAKEITEZ,

Those pics of different utes confirm my taste. The VY Maloo is the best looking ute, period, no contest.

Thanks mate.

I'm not sure if you're talking about mine but they're 20s - and I have no idea what brand they are, I've seen them called BBOSS Eleanor, Lenso Granzo, KSpeed Biaggi ???

Depends on the centre cap as to what brand they are. B.Boss created the rim first and everyone else copied.

[BLAZEY]

i wish it was that low haha i photo shoped it. looks tough as hey :D

~nate

i have little trouble getting round... the only thing you have to worry about is forgetting about keeping paint on the bottom of your side skirts, and keeping your expensive exhaust looking good... a few scrapes and grinds here and there is expected when clearance drops to as low as 60mm under there in one spot...

at the front i'm running a custom made coil over with a koni adjustable insert...
at the rear its king spring part number KHRL46SSSL with standard HSV shocks and cut down bump stops...


the ute, and myself, will be at USA Day this sunday if you want to have a closer look.


mods, sorry to go a bit off topic...
