*I know Martini wrapped it, but it would look so much better without that sticker on the side. Its as bad as the'Monstr' one that was on it. Maybe just a little Martini sticker on the back window, the side one is no good. Just my opinion though. Your car, your choices.*
Should delete the exhaust tips and dump them down behind the rear tires then get the holes plastic welded up. And also i think your brake disks are on the wrong sides they are spinning the wrong way
looks so damm clean and the colour POPS but its such a shame it has to have the company who did the wrap on the side of the car ,jeez couldnt you just pay the man retail and have one colour instead of being a rolling advertisment ,no offence to the fella who did the job its sweet but you know what i mean
@@RossReviewsauBut it still looks crap with that down the side. A sticker on the back window should be enough. A real friend would understand. Your car though bro. You do you.
was literally about to type i hope you are going to BNB leather for your interior and i skip through and see the sticker on the window lol . i love my interior looks as new as the day i got it over a year ago! fantastic team down there @bnb
@@RossReviewsau if you’ve got time you should Cruze down to geelong. Have a Squizz at the ford factory. And a few of the cars in the area. Unfortunately we don’t keep nice cars as nice as Melbourne Queensland or Sydney
Hey Ross about your centre Bearing I've done a few mark both sides with a marker once that is done can cepretate the shafts pull the bearing then put the new one on long as your marks you have had at the start line up your good to go I hope that helps saves yourself abit of money to put elsewhere in the build loving the rig by the way
Jonno loving the look of the VZ. Looks mint! Come back and see me when you’re in Melbourne would be cool to get some pic of both our cars together! Plus we definitely need to do some skids side by side 😂😂😂 let me know when your in town would be great to catch up. Cheers
Just Commodore things😂. The body looks fucking awesome Ross but we all know the rest of the car is a big pile of Holden shit! The only thing Holden was good at was borrowing motors from other companies
It’s looking so good / just needs a bonnet bulge and a pro charger on there / you could probably take the hood off a Monaro gts and put it on there it’s the same front end basically
replaced my starter on my VZ 3 times it gets cooked by the headers, can usually tell when its on the way out when engine is hot and really struggles to start
Original chrome badges back on. Bigger chrome exhaust tips. Custom number plates with a unique memorable name. Looking forward to seeing the new interior.
Sunroof addon is a nice flex 💪 ute is coming along nice tho man 😁 actually don't mind the badgeless back. The exhaust tips do the talking back there but yeah I actually really like the big single tip on vz's but that's me 😅
You really invested into the Holden UTE. It shows. i am glad to know you got the starter issue resolved. This has been an interesting journey watching the transformation.
@@RossReviewsau It will be interesting to see what else will take place and happen. Looking forward to the video and seeing more Holden on your channel. I am beginning to understand just how big Holden was or is to Australia and New Zealand. I am observing from a United States perspective.
Love the Vehicle. My brother bought a manual VZ ute in white the previous owner did a turbo kit on the alloytech. Hence why he bought it. I love both ford and Holden. More so Holden but anything Aussie is good. I've inherited my dad's Ford Falcon XY ute in spring frost paint colour. Old six 250. I'm gonna do it up as my daily.
I'm just an hour north of Melbourne. Just wondering if you could or anyone here recommend someone to rewrap or purchase a steering wheel? I have a VZ SSZ ute 2005. Cheers fellas and ladies.
Changing starter with pacey headers is a bitch as the boys say.. Gotta take headers off, plugs out, sometimes move steering rack back a bit. Oh and debadged for the win
Honestly I reckon having just the thunder badges on either side and just the SS on the back, would look hot brutha 🤙🏻🤙🏻 Been watching since you had like 2k subs and I love your content man, keep chugging broski 🤘🏻
@@RossReviewsau ahh yep copy that, and what about the VE thunders? I’ve got ve2 ssv but my mate has the thunder of my car and neither of us know the difference 🤣
Badges for sure, rep the holden era
I got them ready to go
100% mate.
I say put the badges back on
Ok another vote 🗳️ seems like it’s gonna happen 😅
Definitely put badges on
New banner's looking good 😉🔥
Thanks 🔥👀
Starting that car reminds me of the 80's 90's👍🇦🇺🍻
🤣🤣🤣 couple cranks eh
Normally no badges looks best but being a Thunder I'd probably put just those on
Ok cheers for the vote bro
Second that, just the thunder.. same same but sets it apart from just an SS

Agreed, the tailgate hinges unwrapped (understandably) let's it down to a degree also
Some black badges might help tie it together a little
Additionally, rear infill panel and centre the numberplate, ditch the tow bar
As long as you dont put a chevy badge on it ill be happy
Don’t worry he hates Chevy badges on holdens
Never a Chevy badge lol
Your the most Aussie non Aussie😅 love your videos man
😅
Appreciate you mate 🇦🇺🤌
@@RossReviewsau And the little fella spotting the HSV as he rolls by on the scooter!
A real chip off the ol' block ay!
What a hot looking Ute Mate. I can’t wait to see what the next 6 months brings for this Ute. Can’t wait for the next update.
Put all proper badges on, definitely Holden & SS badges
Will be

When are you coming to Melbourne and what’s the plan
Waiting on something personal.. but should be next month

Black Holden and SS badges would be sweet as.
The guy in the green mask is so cringe. 😬
🤣 I cut him short.. I know you boys can only handle so much of spotto
Don't worry mate, I cant stand him either
@@Spotto_aus Powerfish Wannabe and you aren't funny at all.💯%
It’s always a good day when Ross Reviews uploads a video of his Ute 💪
Appreciate it brother
The Ross reviews banner looks really good !!!
Thanks! Glad people can see me now
Sad the replacement 'E' didn't go back on in the right spot after the original got torn
Bnb leather and the car is done bro 🎉
Gonna look unreal then
No Badges Bro looks nice in clean.
Appreciate it

Nah bro I love em both ford and Holden for the win
One hell of an improvement you should be proud of yourself Johnny mate 👏 also badges on man 👍
Thanks I’m very happy with it

Good call!
Black badges, will suit the dark tint an will look better on top of the candy wrap
How buddy how can I send you pictures of my car so you can see if it good enough to Go on the channel
In his description he has his instagram and Facebook profile linked just click on one and send him a message
Grab two computers why they exist .
Who did your custom steeing wheel mate? Looks goood.
It’s from kahan
Looking good bro nice Choices on the upgrades cool man Vz Glenn 🏎👍
Thanks 👍
Put dump pipes on look awesome 👌
Might change them I’m kinda not liking the small ones 😭
Led Headlightss, Led Interior upgrade is definitely worth it, as well as installing (Bluetooth Wireless)
She’s got Bluetooth and a sub already 😮💨
NO BADGES
Utes coming together nicely! Let me know if you wanna sell the red leather, I want a set for my VY SS ute
Thanks mate! I’ll see if I still have em or if the interior show uses them not sure
@@RossReviewsau sweet as bro, let me know if they come back to Perth with you
it needs ss badges otherwise looks like a base model ute to the average joe
I’ll get them back on
I have a VY SS in red myself. I definitely prefer the no badge look tbh, might take mine off tomorrow 😂
Fair enough!
Put them back on now !
Looking awesome! 😎 I cant find the link for the vinal workshop guys.
On Insta Martini motorstyling
Awesome, cheers mate. Hi from nz 😊@@RossReviewsau
Put badges back on mate vz looks great
Will
Do
maybe it's my own taste, but chrome window trim would look kinda cool. They did that on the VE-VF SSV Redlines anyway.
Could be interesting eh
With those white walls maybe consider some classic decals and badges? EBay should have some.
If you're gunna go badges, bro. go blacked out and just the SS and holden badges. Would look tuff
I’ll think about it
Nice its good when you know what you have done to it
Absolutely
Sunroof addon is a nice flex 💪 ute is coming along nice tho man 😁 actually don't mind the badgeless back. The exhaust tips do the talking back there but yeah I actually really like the big single tip on vz's but that's me 😅
Just wanted chrome eh🥲 but a bit bigger would have been nice
I’d be replacing the crank sensor, just had this issue on my vz ss sedan
Sometimes just locking it and unlocking with the key fob will start it when it starts and dies straight away.my vy ss ute does the same
True.. just commodore things eh

Need those Ross Reviews custom plates brother!💥
I do need them eh🙃
@@RossReviewsau Got anything in mind yet ?
Need ROSSDBOSS plates
Just the Holden badge mate. it has such cool clean lines now. please don't spoil it with a lot of badges.
nice
great sound , its appetizing
Thank you 😋
Reduction gear or standard starter ?
Should come to Qld to some reviews on cars over here there are some real tuf f cars in Qld
I’ll be driving their soon
Could leave the Holden badge but id personaly put ss and the thunder ones on
Ok another vote for badges
No badges looks clean.
But each to there own bro. Looking and sounding mint. Been loving the videos! Keep them up
Appreciate it!!
Big the pacemakers do make getting to the starter an issue.. I spent ages trying to wire mine up
True they got it done already
de badge bro
yeah starter motor is close to the headers and the larger they are less room you have
They got it sorted anyway
Did you run it on the dyno while at tuffs?
Not yet😂 I’m keen to tho
Ute looks great. What exhaust do you have on the car?
It’s a manta system with pacemakers headers
What state are you in mate?
He’s in WA
Wa
Put the Ss and thunder badges on leave the holden badge off
Just put the lion badge back on tailgate that’s it
Love the Vehicle.

Thanks bro.. I’ll play around with the badges n see
Gloss black badges would look mint
What a bloody weapon Johnathan. You’ve took her to the next level
Appreciate it
Put a walky 375 package in the ute
great vid, adding a vz calais chrome bonnet strip to it would look mint
I’ll have to have a look at that
Yeah Nah.
If that was an sv6, you would definitely need to have a tow truck on speed dial .
SS only 😮💨🦁🇦🇺
New plates would do a world of difference - standard issue WA plates are so ugly
Very true eh
My ss has gone thru 3 starters.. due to being destroyed by heat from the headers..
Must be what mine was also
colour code the wheels haha
I vote no badges.
Matte black badges
I think just chrome tbh
I reckon just ss and holden badges obviously in silver 👌
🤙
*_change the tips bro, it’s not a v6 Camry 🤣_*
🥲
just put only the SS badge on the back
Cheers for your submission
Definitely need the ss badging thats a no brainer
Coming soon
What’s the difference between a normal ss and the thunder? I vote put the badges on 💯
The thunder gets the 6L v8
@@RossReviewsau ahh yep copy that, and what about the VE thunders? I’ve got ve2 ssv but my mate has the thunder of my car and neither of us know the difference 🤣
Starters are easy as to do on those with the headers, also sounds like more than a starter issue, sounds like a fuel pressure issue or maybe bad tune?
Seems to fire up fine now
@@RossReviewsau well send it lol , it’s looking sick btw
Get well soon Ross
Thanks
Badges bro rep that IRON LION
Yep🤌
here in new zealand these cars are making a bit of comeback, i have a 79 vb v8.......would love to see a video on anything vh,vc,vk,vb 🙃
Would love to get one of them.. hard to find here unfortunately
White badges to go with white diamond stitching and white walls?
Definitely not a 7k ute anymore 🤙
Not a 7k Ute anymore 💀🤣 bank account is hurting
How much did the whole wrap cost?
The material was about 1500
Yea badges back on!!. looks tuff though!!.
Noted
Thunder badges for sure 👌
Coming soon

Yup going on
