Notice the HVAC controls are not separate from the radio :shutup:
Part numbers are still coming in but ask if you want something specific. I don't have prices yet.

Also some parts are marked 9C1 and others are 9C3 just an FYI

Engine is a L77 which is the L76 that is now E85 compatible.
170 amp alt. - 92247651
Spare wheel - 92230888 (same as Camaro V6)
Front Rotors - 92260109 (larger than GT)
Fuel pump is now voltage regulated like the Camaro

At some point, I'm going to need a #4 from the first photo. Do you have a part number? Thanks!

[mi04se1]

I wonder if the center stack bezel would fit the G8.

[Crazy Paul]

At some point, I'm going to need a #4 from the first photo. Do you have a part number? Thanks! Be careful what you ask for folks. Greg is starting to post up info for Series 2 and there's no guarantee that 1 part from Series 2 will fit into a G8 without changing a bunch of parts.

#4 to definately fit a G8 is 92218486

I knew my ex-wife was blowing that guy!

LOL

That was one hell of a porn spam list, wasn't it?

[SRG8]

I really hope this upgrade is possible! What does 9C1 and 9C3 mean?

edit: nevermind I Google'd!

#4 above is 92257257 It seems that is the same as our G8 except it is a cover and not a grill since the PPV may not have a center speaker, but like Paul said we won't know until someone tries it.

Now that i have a rest vehicle of my own I can do some test fitting once the parts are available. I'm half way there now since my radio is out and the dash is apart for a gauge pod I'm building for a HSV Triple.

[Crazy Paul]

92257257 Grille Asm Rdo (Ve1R) , Series 2 2011
is showing as about 1/2 the price of the previous 92218486 Grille Asm Rdo (Veve)

[Greg@PacePerformance]

OK so you do show it as a grill. Hmm maybe it is a different color to make the part number change.

Edit:
What are you showing for cost on that one Paul?
Ours is $29.93 dealer cost. Just wondering :)

[Crazy Paul]

92257257 less than $18

[zepcom]

This may help... this is a detail view from the Series II...

[Greg@PacePerformance]

I'm 99% sure they are actually going to look like these
10037
9C1 Police Car

10038
9C1 Undercover Car (not sure on this one since the pic is RHD)

[Seattle09GT]

What is the benefit of upgrading to the PPV center stack (if it is possible???)

[Greg@PacePerformance]

Some are wanting to put the HSV E3 parts in that have the touch screen. Chis White says he might be able to program it for the US if he can get his hands on one.

That would be fantastic.

[SRG8]

Instead of trying to buy the factory radio for this conversion, I would love to use the Independent HVAC Controller with an Aftermarket Radio on this center stack.

Just a thought.

[youngrushhour]

Well, there is already a big time thread going on on that and I agree, but I love the look of the stock unit on the new VEs.

[SRG8]

I meant using the new VE center stack and not the current one we have.

I have read through the whole thread for the HVAC Controller, I will be buying one soon.

Hopefully the prices come out for this center stack soon.

[rmcrom]

Does the radio faceplate from the PPV plug into the g8 radio?

[matthewo]

so the alternator should bolt right in and plug up and work the same way as the original alternator? just a good upgrade for the future.

[gr8lover]

I would be interested in the brakes for this... seems like they should have bigger brakes like it says the rotors are bigger.... wonder if they will have brembos? mutipiston calipers? fit our wheels? hmmmm

[p71]

I'm 99% sure they are actually going to look like these
10037
9C1 Police Car

10038
9C1 Undercover Car (not sure on this one since the pic is RHD)

What kind of idiot designs an undercover version of a car that only the police can buy...

It makes as much sense as having an undercover cop open carry and pin is badge to his hat.

From what I see the brakes are not Brembo, just a larger cast version.

That is funny. I never thought about it like that.

LOL yeah GM is once again making another (in a long string of them) mistake when deciding on "ONLY FOR LEO" status of the this vehicle. Seriously, how many "undercover" versions will GM sell to off set the cost of design and bringing them over to the states? GM wake the F' up already!!!

[wreckwriter]

See any sort of laptop mount yet Greg?

They're called undercover cars as that's the term for pursuit rated non-patrol vehicles. They are used by detectives, administration & other government uses where you aren't going to transport prisoners, lightbars, cages, switch boxes, etc (& don't want to be driving around in black/white marked car. They have a decent rear seats & interiors, rather than ones designed for prisoners. We purchase as many of those as we do patrol cars. So it's common sense to do that & pretty much doubles the amount of vehicles they can sell. Those cars also hold more resale value for departments. They aren't used for undercover work as you think. Narcotics & such use leased vehicles of all types for that type of work. That way you can get different cars all of the time to keep them from being burned. Believe me, criminals aren't the brightest. It's amazing how just driving an unmarked squad (no markings or light bar), people don't notice you. I've been flipped off for going the speed limit & had people try to race me in the blacked out Charger. Mind you, it has tinted windows, but has lights & cage inside. Those are always amusing stops (at least for us). :)

[p71]

@m1tankr.... you kind of made my point...

The blacked out charger, or the unmarked b4c or the p71 with out lights looks like a civilian vehicle and so does not stick out, and allows you to sit by the side of the road and catch speeders more efficiently, or blend into a crowd of vehicles on the highway, or allow you to park in a bad neighbor hood and leave without the car drawing the attention of being an unoccupied police car. The new 9C3 will still be spotted a mile away by anyone halfway observant...

If they are going after the P72 market, fine but that is the municipal vehicle market, not the undercover cop market, and requires slightly different upgrades.

[m1tankr]

I also get the same reactions in an unmarked Crown Vic. People aren't that observant. It's not really used for undercover ops. It's used for the other half of the times you want the capabilities of the pursuit rated vehicle w/more comfort & to be less noticed. It's a smart move on Chevy's part as they can double the vehicles they sell without having to market it to any additional people. Also, if you can get the administrators in them, they'll be more likely to buy them for the patrol guys. Plus, the Federal government isn't gonna buy marked squads for the Federal agencies, so this also gives them another market. It'd be nice if the sold them civilian, but I'm guessing this has more to do w/testing the waters. Also, I think the new CAFE mpg rules give exemptions for government law enforcement fleet vehicles. Also doesn't help that the market for full size RWD vehs has been disappearing.

[SRG963]

I typically can spot most unmarked cars by the permanent plates and blacked out windows, since anything under 35% is illegal except for LEO's.

I always slow down a bit when I see a blacked out sedan, especially if they are not moving.

Wonder if the PPV has a suspension upgrade package, and what it consists of.

[BlackGT5]

Attached PDF files shows standard/optional equipment, RPO codes, etc. for the PPV

[izaks]

Can anyone supply me with two 92247651 (170A alternator), shipped to 11096
Thanks

[pir4te]

FWIW PPV has ZL1 fuel pump and all the latest enhancements - bargain vehicle to rival Chevy SS with a few tweaks.

Hi Izak,
long time no hear from...hope everything is OK there.
You'll have to contact Greg@Paceperformance about 92247651
It's a Part Number not recognised here in AU.

[Greg@PacePerformance]

92247651 is an old part number Paul.
The current part number is 92258220

Yes I can get them. Usually takes about a week for them to get to me from the GM warehouse.

92258220 comes up as more than double the price in AU as it does in USA.
Greg is your man for these.
