Probably because once the battery goes flat you have to get an entire new remote as the battery is soldered in.

They work well once adjusted for a small period of time, the shoes are a pain in the ass to get on and off. And the adjuster can fit in backwards and half work as I discovered when I put one in backwards and you will get limited holding ability and it will still adjust manually. I spent way too long working out why it would kind of hold one side but not enough to torque up the wheel nuts!

I honestly despise the handbrake setup I spent so long messing with mine after doing big brakes.
-
Sent you this on iv but just sayn it would match the rears

You will find theres about a gazillion more wheel and tyre options in 20s ….

Because thats not cheap ether? Boosted v6s are semi popular over the ditch and make good power too.

This being an ecotec it shouldn’t be an issue it was only the early motors that that was a thing.
-
If you find the ssz or the thunder brakes they are same thickness but a 320mm rotor on the front but use a vented rear rotor the same size as factory so heaps of people fit the rear vented rotors as an upgrade
-
Interesting fact they are bog standard commodore rear calipers they just use a slider bracket that puts them further out for the larger hsv rotors.
-
Hopefully they work a bit better the fronts are certainly much meatier!

Fyi I found stealthride terrible for emails they claimed they sent me heaps of them ive never received one when i was chasing an order that never arrived, in the end i reached out to them via facebook to resolve and it was fine. I dont know if they are using some sort of system for this rather than straight email and this is why.

If you want to upgrade to clubby brakes let me know, bigger 2 pots 330x32 mm slotted bendix rotors new rotors have done a couple of thousand ks. With safebrake braided lines. i also have a set of dba gold cross drilled rotors for the standard brakes that were skimmed and didnt see much use before upgrading. unsure whats happening with my rears yet possibly have something that will happen. You can fit the vented rear rotors from the redline i think it is easy enough they are virtually the same thickness just vented. The clubby ones use the same caliper just a different carrier and a 315x18mm vented rotor the clubby stuff is a good step.

I have a bit of experience with my one to know what helps ive just gone to a 30 profile also 245/30/20 all round tho. Mine is N/A ls1 with a lot of stuff done but making 305kw at the rears Just about ready for cert , just waiting on the last bits to fit the vf 4 pot brembos ive been rocking clubsport bigger brakes for a while but its time for some real ones!
-
Do the diff bushing insert if you havent its like 50$ and makes a big difference to help traction
-
They are a press fit into the rotor as far as im aware , if they weren't as tight as id like i was just going to use some retaining compound! The re wording definitely clears that up ill get cracking!
