    there are many other options as well, our site sponsor gslrallysport offers VE brake upgrade kits: VE Twin Piston Upgrade Package suit VB-VZ Commodore!!!. you will probably want to change the booster and master cylinder to, say a VT booster & 1" master as well.

    I've heard on here that the 2JZ is no good because the exaust is on the drivers side and have limited room with column and rack. I was considering this or the 1UZ V8 in my VP Calais. After ****ing around putting extractors on and finding that the calais steering is different to standard (bloody headache) i know there's bugger all room on the V6 so maybe you're lucky and will have more room but i find it hard to believe when you'd want a 3 inch dump pipe at least for perfomance. Prove me wrong coz i'd like to see one in there!
