You could contact them and ask to clarify if it is or isn't supported.

I don't think you can get the basic kit in Australia, happy to be proven wrong though. VCM Suite Australia sell the Pro for $999 https://vcmstore.com.au/collections/all ... pvi-pro-gm That comes with 8 GM credits ready to use but you need 12 for a VE V6 so you have to get 4 more.

EDIT: From the US the basic cost US$499 and the Pro US$649 add to that postage, currency differences, tax (the government was talking about lowering the import tax threshold from $1000 to much less) and you may as well just get the pro from VCM Suite Australia.

EDIT2: I see Tazzi has done the maths while I edited my post.

HPTuners is cheaper, I recently bought and got the professional version ($649usd = 866aud)
Basic is $499usd = 667.65aud, plus the $100usd shipping.. so roughly 800aud for the basic including shipping.. and plus any international fee/conversion charges your bank throws in there.. was $15 on my end. :thumbup:

When looking at EFILives kits, it was up around the $1300-1600 mark. With currency conversions, shipping ect.

I don't believe the VE V6 is 12 credits, more like 2 per vehicle & more if you want year/model from memory.
