My new ride

[cashie]

Hi guys, bought a new car a few weeks ago, a HSV GTS.
It's an 06 with the LS2 and M6.
Thought I'd share a few pics with you guys..

When I first got it:

Hey Cashie,
Great work !!!!!
When are you next coming thru my way with the car?
(Near Berrigan exit off freeway).
I've got a couple billet alloy caps I need to try out on a VE manual (pre 2010), also have Rad Covers and other bits here as always.
Regards

Looking good.

Must have been very sutle changes from '06 to '09.

[cashie]

Thanks guys for the great feedback.
I think Holden and HSV got it right with the VE...
I also would love it if you guys had these over there in your showrooms, let's hope there is a deal with Chevrolet soon.

Do you have any pics of the alloy caps?

Billet clutch reservoir & cap, Powersteering shroud & cap, Strut tower caps are the same as VT-VZ...GTO.....shown here

Ignore the pricing you see as that all includes Airfreight to USA.

Here's a 2010 Sportwagon we put billet caps onto last week, it was a manual but the newish ones have no seperate clutch fluid reservoir......it's one big tank for clutch and brake.
That's why I need to test out a pre 2010 manual like yours.

Hey Cashie,
Got my hands on a 2008 VE SS this morning and tried out the billet clutch reservoir & cap and the power steering shroud and cap....it all fits Bro. Didn't swap the plastic clutch reservoir over to the new billet reservoir but took enough measurements to know it will fit. Good news for USA GXP manual owners.

Billet clutch reservoir cap fits over original cap.

This complete billet reservoir and billet cap will swap onto VE & GXP manual cars.

Billet power steering shroud and billet cap will also definately fit a VE or G8 V8.

Coolant caps and window washer caps fit fine with a Duspeed OTR also

Nice car. I wish the American cars had more interior color options like the Australian ones.
