VE SSV UTE 310rwkw

Managed to install a shift light on it today. only took 15min to install. very very easy.
Will test it out tomorrow

I also put on the original "Burns Stainless" rear mufflers. I forgot how loud this makes it. It should scream at the Dyno at CHE next sunday. I will try and get a video and post it up

You can not go past the intake that DUS's makes for the VE. Very neat fitting and works a treat. Cam choice is a tricky one but anything in th3 230's is pretty big for a daily driver but it is still managable. but you will loose in the bottom end.

I love the package that I have put together and I hope I crack 320rwkw next weekend.

with my R8 it does'nt get out much at all so I could go something a bit angry.
I like 1 I seen on youtube a russo cam in a black VE GTS sounds tuff, but as I'm not up to speed with cams or OTR's I have to have a good look around & ask a bunch of questions, bearing in mind Im nearly 50 so cant be too crazy.

50, mate, your just getting into the swing of it. Don't let age hold you back. For you I would look at a mid to low 230's cam. If you want a really angry or lumpy idle, this can be done in the tune to make it sound like a much larger cam.

I did a lot of research on cams, tuners, and OTR. I originall had a Russo unit but sold it to get a DUS unit. much easier to clean and more positive intake. But at the end of the day, each to their own.

Beautiful ute bud you have done well, love those lights too, bet those roos stand up and look with them on....lol

I don't live that far out in the bush but I see plenty of Foxes. The HID Fog lights are bloody brillaint for seeing things that are on the sides of the road that may want to jump in fronto of you.

I think I woke the whole street up this morning with the original rear mufflers on it.
May have to take a trip through the M5 tunnel :):):):):):):):):):):):)

All parts are from Burn's Racing from the states. Not sure where a local dealer is but you can do a search for it
I'll putup a pic of the back of the ute later along with a sound of it compared to the other mufflers.

Thanks .

Top effort on the ute. Awaiting the new sound file with the change over mufflers...

Thanks Mate, just a few touches and tweaks makes a big difference. Same with all the cars I built

The idle sounds insane mate! From what i can hear, theres almost no drone, all it is is lumpy pistony burble out of those exhausts... A drive by or Standing start would be awesome to hear! Maybe you can get that up soon? Love the sound mate, but why the jap style tips?

Tips came with it and it reflects of the ground also.

Better than having a 4.5 inch straight out pipe. Something different

See what it sounds like on the dyno tomorrow stay "tuned" lol

take some ear plugs its going to be a weapon

Yep, Just like the V8's at Bathurst. The note change arounf 3,500 rpm is bloody awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

nice ride. VERY NICE... luv the exhaust set up. how much did that all set ya back.

to get somebody to make the same exhaust I would imagine around $5-6K unless they were doing it for mates rates

How did you go today mate? I bet it sounded awesome on the dyno. Would love to hear it and know what horse power you made. Surely very impessive all round. I must say you have one sweet ride ............:bow:

Very cold start to the day. Great bunch of cars and well run. The old girl cranked out 316rwkw which is not to bad throught the stock Auto.

The exhaust was sweet sounding and all went well. The car accelerated alot quicker than before and is also up on power. Great day all round !

Nice to see that sort of power through an A6. The exhaust certainly sounds good and works well.

Car sounds great, with the power too match :goodjob:

Thanks Steve, the tune is Spot on

Beautiful ride there mate and nice power too so well done :goodjob:

Had a lady reverse into the side of the ute.
A bit of quarter panel damage but just a pain in the arese to go through to get it fixed. Funny thing is she said that she didn't see it or hear it. How the heel do you miss a big red fire truch that was running and idleing like it does!!!!!!! Sad thing is that it happened in our own car park at work.

But, you got to take the good with the bad and look on the positve side. 10seconds before I was standing where she hit!!

I wonder if I can swing a body kit LOL. Just kidding, leave it as is. Even had 2 cops go over it the other night and loved it. Had a chat to them for 20min and then they went back to work!!!!!

Thing is I was looking at going to the All holden day at the Hawkesberry showground this weekend. Maybe next time!!!:bawl:

COmments Please and Assistance

Looking at putting a Walkinshaw style boonet scoop on the Ute.

What's people thoughts and can somebody direct me to a red VE ute that has one already. OR even better. Do some Photo shop thingy as I am hopeless on PC's. Lucky to get this thread up actually LOL


Cheers

Also looking at a gloss black strip down the side similar to this

Found a red ute but no photo shop thingy sorry.....Is this what you are looking at ???

http://www.fibreenhancements.com.au/...114&Itemid=151

I think it would really muscle and tuffin it up but think it looks and sounds tuff as it is especially if you are looking at upgrading to a marloo at the end of the year. Why dont you wait and do it to that? Now that will looking and sounds f&*king awesome i am sure. Cant wait.

As for the strip personally i would leave it off or maybe have one up one side on the front bonnet over the overtop and out the back?

Hope this helps. :)

Bugger so sorry to hear. The poor girl its a shame when you hear about something like this. All this work, your pride and joy and some lady not watching or listening to whats around her......typical women drivers lol.

sweet you have the cops on your side lol too funny.

Thanks for the comments :)

Got bored and could not figue out the use of a PC so I went Ape with some black tape

What do you think?.

http://i657.photobucket.com/albums/u...t/DSC02491.jpg


You have to squint really hard but you get the idea.

http://i657.photobucket.com/albums/u...t/DSC02493.jpg

Anybody tell me where to get a good Walkinshaw bonnet scoop?

Cheers and Beers

is that tape on the front too? it looks like how I just painted mine. I like the stripes on the side they look different and suit the car would you get them painted on or just vinals?

It's all tape.

Will get a price for both but the front for sure.

I paid $500 for my front bar but that was to respray the whole thing cos it needed a knife mark fixed and I got the black bits done at the same time so it shouldnt be as much if your just getting the black added over the paint already on it

Sweet,

That and a Walky bonnet scoop will make it look like a Real Transformer LOL

Just a few more in day like.

Think it grows on you after a while. It would be better in gloss black not flat black to match the rims

http://i657.photobucket.com/albums/u...t/DSC02510.jpg

Personally I think it looks good. Maybe add some track stripes that go right to the egde of the bonnet. I tried to photoshop it but I'm useless lol.
