The Redback STR163 is the left-hand performance rear muffler listed to fit the Holden Commodore VE and VF. These later Commodores split the rear silencing into a left and a right box, and this is the left-side unit in that pair.

Why a left-side rear muffler?

The VE and VF Commodore run a dual-rear layout with a separate muffler on each side of the car, so the rear silencing is shared between a left and a right box. The STR163 is the left-hand unit. Ordering the correct side matters — the box and its pipe stubs are handed to suit that corner of the rear floor and the exit on the left of the valance.

What does the performance design bring?

As a performance rear box it flows more openly than the restrictive factory unit while still controlling drone, leaning the note towards a freer, more present sound. It sets part of the note on its side of the car; paired with the matching right box it gives an even result across the rear. Scope it as a sharper note rather than a quiet one.

Will it suit my VE or VF Commodore?

It is listed to fit the Holden Commodore VE and VF as the left rear muffler. Confirm your exact series, body and whether you need one side or the pair with the workshop before ordering — the listing is a guide and getting the side right is essential.

What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?

Oak Flats Muffler Men fits side-specific rear mufflers like the STR163 in-house across the Illawarra. We confirm the side, check the feed pipe and hangers on that corner, and make sure the box and tip line up at the valance before signing it off.

Common questions

Is the STR163 the left or right muffler?
It is the left-hand rear muffler for the Holden Commodore VE and VF, which use a separate box on each side. Confirm you need the left side with the workshop before ordering.
Do I need to replace both sides?
It depends on what is worn — sometimes just one side, sometimes the pair. We will inspect both rear boxes when you book and advise.
