Gday boys just needing some advice on the best wheels to drop into my xh. im currently looking at 245’s 15x7 on the fronts, and 265’s 15x8 on the back. my Hope is with the 2 inch drop in the front and back I’ll be able to fill the space a bit more. That being said, I have the 14x6stock Steelies on currently; and if there is a way to balloon a big enough tire onto them I probably won’t waste my time and money on the new 15’s but I really have no idea on what is the way to go here.

Gday boys, finally picked up my xg, and I’m finding it has some troubles with fuel pump even when running on gas. Seems it’s buggered as it’s singing bloody loud the entire time the cars on once it’s been running a while and warmed up. Goes fine while it’s cold. My question is whether or not a buggered fuel pump will make me loose power even on gas ? Coming home yesterday from a run up the road I could barely get to 80 with foot flat. Zero grunt. Exhaust is pretty smelly, so I’m thinking the o2 sensor may be buggered too which could be a cause ? Any other ideas fellas, I’m pulling my hair out Cheers.

Hey boys, Cleaned throttle body right out, getting full range on it, everything seems to be fine. Cleaned the air box, and replaced the element. No blockages. There’s something simple that I’m missing surely. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks for the confirmation. Swore I could hear it. Phew. Changed fuel pump, still no power [emoji2357] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It “was” running beautifully on both lpg and unleaded on the drive home. Then the pump started to sing after sitting for a few hours then driving again. It was about 240 km to drive it back, and it didn’t miss a beat. Then took it for half hour drive that night and the pump started to whine. I didn’t notice power loss at that stage because I was on gas, and also it was late at night in Warrandyte and I’m not quite use to the xg handling. So I wasn’t pushing it. But then drove it yesterday and that’s when I noticed the power loss once it warmed up. It smells like it’s running rich over rotten egg smell. Going to replace the fuel pump and put a new o2 sensor in and see what happens. Well and truly got me stumped Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Full tank [emoji30] Cleaned throttlebody, cable doesn’t seem to be stretched out. It also seems to idle and run beautifully. I’m completely at a loss Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Haven’t got the regulator to measure, but I’m still baffled as to why my powers out the window even in gas ? It runs ordinary on unleaded all of a sudden so I’ve got a feeling the pumps rooted Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Starts off sounding fine, relay kicks, pump rolls over and it’s all good, then once it’s bad the whirring is almost intolerable Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I did notice marketplace buzzing with heartbreak and regret. At this point I’m just going to hold on to them, and wait for the right guy who needs them. He can pay 150, but need them for the right reason and that’s incentive enough for me. I guess we are all doing it tough.

Yeah look I wasn’t expecting to get 4, just hoping to give my self some bargaining power. But I guess I’d prefer keep them in terms of a couple hundred bucks.. just got made redundant and times are tougher than expected Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Does anyone have a rough idea of what I should list my stockies for ? I was thinking 400 for 5 wheels, 4 decent tires, one spare that’s a bit average. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My dream car is literally a kingswood ute. But the cop bait era does nothing for me... and for some reason they’re more popular than real automotive genius Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I do not understand the price all pre2005 holdens are fetching.. the Kingswood and Torana days sure, but commodores are stains on the brands name for me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
