I have searched but i just assumed no one has done it. The bolt locations on the master cylinder to booster look the same but the lines are in a slightly different location. There are no wires or sensors to either master cylinder so errors shouldn't be an issue.

Tinted windows and armorall etc. can effect the receiver sensor (centre of dash) Or the receiver needs to be replaced

Has anyone replaces the VT VX VY master cylinder with a VZ one? Does it fit? Does the VZ brake reservoirs fit Vt-vz master cylinders Cheers

Can you breathe under water?

I'm just a back yard painter who was taught by a professional. The radiator is GPI racing brand 3 core, $260 with the thermo fans and shroud.

Cores galore this time. Heater cores due and there was a fishy smell coming from the aircon. Out with the old in with the new. Why not do the radiator, condenser and dryer while I’m at it!

Have been trying to sell it for around two years now. The longer I keep it the more $$ I end up putting into it as I get bored haha. Always looking for a new project

Yeah mate she’s still got it. About do do the LIM gaskets she’s about due

I purchased an aluminum radiator shroud and thermo fans. (VY V6) Just wondering where people have mounted the power steering reservoir? There are no mounting points on the shroud.

The correct way to do it is to remove pins 27, 28, 29 and 30 The four pins for traction control. No errors this way. Enjoy!

Now with full black leather

You can turn the codes off. But to permenantly delete them you will have to fix the issues rather than hide them. As soon as the bcm is reset the error will come back

I can't find any info on the factory amp. Does anyone know if it is bridgeable? Basically I want to tap into the amp wiring and run two factory amps (one for each sub)? I have a pioneer amp that powers the speakers but a spare factory amp sitting there. Can this be done or would it not make a...

Remove the plastic trim around your steering wheel (One screw underneath and use your thumbs on the top trim to press in and pop apart) Pull the slipping off the ignition barrel and disconnect the wire to the light globe. In most cases it's not the slip ring but the contact on the key itself...

The photos are under the fluros so looks darker than it is. Different in the sun light though.

Thanks dude

It's to take the focus off the big arse scoop that I never wanted but needed lol With the mirrors it will blend in

Getting there slowly. A little more work to go with lining things up and finishing off the doors. P.S. This image is not photoshopped

Are you using an OBD1 scan tool or an OBD2 scan tool? Its most likely the scan tool your using giving that error VT/VX/VY are OBD1

Could be an ecu fault or could be the immobilizer. Try a scan tool and see what comes up

Used to go through Greenfoam, not sure if hes still around? I go through mace now though. Cant fault they're work

Very clean looking spac you have there mate.

You'll need to feather it out and hit that black spot with some grey plastic primer/filler Then get your paint code and a spray can mixed up. Supercheap acrylic Colorspec paint is cheap and effective. They also have Diamond 2K clear in a spray can which is compatible with their acrylic basecoats...

IAC valve can play tricks with the mind. Something so small can cause such an issue. Worth a look into

First time took me about 12 hours. I've done a fair few now and am down to about 6 hours. VT/X aren't as simple as VY/VZ... The core itself is sealed inside VT/VX heater box so the box has to come apart. VY/VZ on the other hand were simply slide in - slide out. Hardest part of the job is the...

I haven't tried it myself but I would assume it wouldn't run at all and if it did it certainly wouldn't save fuel. L67 are factory tuned to run the supercharger therefore the MAF reading would be way out. The teeth inside the charger would restrict flow considerably if they weren't turning.

Yeah Richie. Still love my red. They are DNA paints. The roof is Silver Flare and the body is Firestorm red candy. Its pretty much DNA's version of candy apple red. All the visable bolts/screws have been polished or replaced with silver ones and the plastic clips have all been replaced. Still a...

Thought I'd throw a couple of progress pics up. Getting there slowly. The chrome vinyl ordered for the quarters came folded and I wasn't happy with the outcome so another week delay waiting for a rolled lot to arrive.

It may be disabled in the bcm

I've cleaned countless. Don't need to cover anything just keep high pressure away from electrical contacts. Its an engine not a penis

Its repairable. bumper, quater and at least half the door would need to be blended in. Its really not as bad as it looks Price wise you'd be looking at around $800

Thought I'd add an update to what's going on. The hard work is done and some paint has been layed. Decided to midrub the basecoat and flow coat the clear before buffing to give it a smoother deeper shine. I've also worked out that SS fog lights do fit Calais so will be replacing those also...

Last sneak pic before she's revealed with colour

Attention to detail is a must. A professional beater/painter is teaching me with this one to bring it to show quality. Its going to take some time as we both work and have to do it in our spare time

So here's a list of whats being replaced with this build. New aftermarket mirrors New genuine center pillar plastics New genuine bonnet chrome New aftermarket fog light lens's New aftermarket chrome outer handles New genuine rear door protector stickers New genuine door strikers New aftermarket...

Oh I see. Sorry I'm not up to date with city folk lol. I'm about 5 hours away from Melbourne and 6 hours away from Adelaide in the country land

WTF is an "eye candy" sticker? and why would I put it on my car? Don't mean to be rude but just why?

Hole cut, sealed and scoop Sikaflexed on, ready for some glass work

I've been using Nulon red concentrate. No difference in price to the green really. Red does also have the benefit of easily being able to spot leaks though which is a plus.
