    i didnt belive it when i first saw it but you actually just did a backwards conversion. why not just get leaks fixed?

    How did you do you remote start? or did you get somone to do it for you? i would think it would be hard because of the imobiliser.

    WH statesman interior in a VZ Clubby???

    anything is possible for him who belives. ;) if your planing to put the clubbie seats back into the wh i think it would look odd with that cream patch behind the rear door even if they were the same width?? also the cream under the dash unless your gonna change the dash also?

    What is the ecotec's weakest link?? pistons? rods? heads? crank? pins?

    buy an ls1 = instant power. compared to what a v6 will do anyway.

    Morton's white VQ Statesman

    how can it be in wrong? the mount can only go one way and there is no ajustment in it. if you got the bellhouseing flush to the motor and the mount in correct it should be fine? just out of intrest did you use the auto tailshaft? my mate wanted me to do this to his car i had thought you...

    My Baby....VT SS Super 6

    i dont think so i'm pretty sure 90% of standard ls powerd commodres will beat standard skylines apart from a few of the faster ones the new gtr maybe but that costs alot more. from my experiences anyway.

    All this polished aluminium stuff in your engine bay, how come you didn’t just make it a clean bay put all the wiring and containers elsewhere? Probably going to have a 2 tonne car when your done :p

    yeah dont get a come for your car the Torque Power high rise dual plane. i have seen one make more top end and torque on a 500hp motor on the same motor that had a come manifold and everyone reccomends them over come unless you want to turbo or somthing with a bazillion hp :p

    Tough sounding exhaust on SS for under $200

    was that recording taken from the front of the car? i could hear egine noise :p also dont the ve's have a mufler then resinator? looks like they usually just have a rear mufler from the under car pic.

    2way radio antennas

    i put the uhf areal in the spot of the usual radio areal and then got a radio areal that just sticks to the back window its about 20 cm long and sits flat on the inside of the window wouldnt even know its there. the uhf areal is more important to be set up properly than a radio areal. personally...

    What's it worth...i'm over it...

    for that price i'd say it was a 5L conversion from a vt. so probably was 5 speed.

    5ltr VN Wagon, check these pics out n tell me what ya think...

    but it comes down to the cost :P for the cost of an ls2 then all the stuff to get it in, computers hacking them exhaust engine mounts clutch or tailshaft all the other little bits n peices. youll probably lose aircond n have to play with powersteering i think i'd rater spend the same money on a...

    5ltr VN Wagon, check these pics out n tell me what ya think...

    forgot to say thats one near lookin berlina wagon! dont see many of them :D yeah the ve commodores ss comes with them. any ls2 block can take them yes but i would just get one from a commodore because it already has them. if you get the normal ls2 i wouldnt bother changing them unless you...

    5ltr VN Wagon, check these pics out n tell me what ya think...

    yep ls1 sound pretty bad compared to a 5L i think the L98 or L76 headed ls2 sound better tho like the ve commodore has there still not a 5L tho. but the L98 head make 500hp with a just about standard cam.

    My Vy Clubsport

    i think you should get 12 on them tho i got a 2.1 60' on my 17" and not any sign of traction issues i think i could get a 2.0 maybe even 1.9 if i was lucky. you 19" should have more surface area than mine so i think if you put it all together well you would get a 12 on them. and i didnt do a 2nd...

    *twin Turbo Vt Ss*

    how much boost is that on i would guess not a lot? your heads are pretty good for a 5L!!! with thoes heads you could have easily had that power NA probaby :P

    Does The VX-Commodore Have a " Self-Learning " Computer.??

    i pay about 100-110 every fill up today was 107 just use 98 youll get there in no time! if i pay less than $95 i consider it amazingly cheap! i havnt been driving long but my first car used to get $65 for 65L and it used to get alot further :( 650k-700k compared to 480 today from 64L

    Ls1 ??

    put a L98 L76 headed 6liter in it :D much better than an ls1

    My Vy Clubsport

    did u have trouble with traction? i found if i let the tyres down and did a decent burnout standard 235 potanza's grip excellent not even the slightest sign of wheelspin, but i dont have 3.7's or a maffless tune or OTRCAI :( .

    VT performance enhancements

    nah about .5 or .6 in the take off and then about .3 to .5 for cai and a tune so all up it would probably be possible to get a perfect run of 13.X a CAI and tune by itself no way a second :P but it only needs just over half a second to make 13.
  29. nathans1987

    vx ss, y does the aerial stay up even when a cd is playing?

    does it go down when the car is off? if not it probably broken.
  30. nathans1987

    VT performance enhancements

    maybe i dunno what yours would do? i did a 14.6 @97mph with a really bad 60 foot time 2.6 seconds because i didnt know how to get grip :P so i think thats good for a 14.2 atleast a perfect everything run maybe even 14.0 if i had a CAI and tune i would definatly think it would do 13.

    VT performance enhancements

    a cammed zorst remap etc etc v6 wouldnt come close to my 5L which was stock. thats a bit harsh to 5L my 5L wasnt that much slower than my vx ss maybe about half a second if i could drive when i had it. well i still cant drive but i think i got a good time for a untuned ls1 standard diff.

    My GEN3 LS1 Vp SS ute

    Nice car there! i was going to do the same thing but the cost got to much in the end to put an ls1 in. cant wait to see this finished and maybe a 1/4.
  33. nathans1987

    Foaming VP

    i did 2.1 0-60ft i like my clutch in one peice :p could definitly get that better with my tyres i have no trouble with grip. 1/8 was 8.7.

    me why? am i annoying you i didnt intend to just stating my experiance.

    Foaming VP

    about 15 flat, give or take abit but all mine had was an exhaust that isnt really a vey big mod in my eyes its still unopened its an easy and cheap thing to do which makes it quite east to get a 14 second pass unless you think installing a exhaust is hard? apart from that i hadnt done anything...
  36. nathans1987

    Foaming VP

    i didnt need to do anything apart from exhaust which was way to big for it anyway :p it did a 14.6 with a 2.6 second 60 foot time because it was sidways. foamy gets a 2.1 60 foot so i would assume if i had grip atleast a 2.2 is viable which would be around 14.2-14.3 still untuned no CIA. sounds...

    14 seconds isnt fast for a 5L :p haha 11 or under is a fast 5L.
