holden vk berlina turbo 4.0ltr ford 270rwhp drag drift - eBay, Passenger Vehicles, Cars, Cars, Bikes, Boats. (end time 12-Sep-10 02:18:00 AEST)
are you for real thats quite an awesome conversion shame it got defected looks like a very neat car
If its got Wheels or Boobs its gonna cost ya money
I can't really see a problem with it, looks pretty tidy from the pictures and with a turbo 4LTR ford motor it would get along quite well.
Probably more road worthy than a lot of cars on this forum.
Being different is a great thing, at least he didn't do the usual and follow the rest of the pack.
At least the ride height looks legal![]()

Ford 6 is a solid rockin' engine. Like Chriysler 245/265's.
despite the fact hes put a ford into a holden,which is totally wrong in so many ways,it appears to be a well done conversion & a tidy unit.
yes the turbo falcon 6 goes hard,it even goes harder than the falcon 8 which is stupid but he could have at least stuck the factory holden 6 turbo engine in(yes,they did make them for those who think otherwise)

They were fully sanctioned by Holden & still Covered by all factory warranty. Basically the car went from Holden to Normalair-Garret in Melbourne for fitting then given to the customer who ordered it.
To prevent the comments of it didnt exist but heres a little article to confirm they didThere were quite a few made & sold(as it was something you had to order)but the commodore came along so further development was put on hold & never really went anywhere. There were supposed to be VK Turbos but they went injected instead. When the VL came along the turbo idea was again brought up which is why they went nissan & fitted some model VL's with turbo engines.Here endith the lesson,lol. If anyone wishes to correct me please do so,i am open to be corrected,we all can be wrong sometmes
There was also sports UC released called the SL/T standing for Sports
Luxury/Turbo. This was a 6 cylinder Turbo that was able to beat the LX A9X
V8 from 0 - 100 km/h and on the quarter mile. The only place that the SL/T
was lacking was the take off where the V8 had the power at lower range of
rev's and the SL/T stuggled slightly.
They were never produced as an official GM-H model, but were a factory sanctioned
modification by Normalair-Garrett Manufacturing in Melbourne, and had full
warranty and full emission gear. Essentially they were pre-production
prototypes of a car with would most likely have been a factory option if the
Torana had not been cancelled.
