hi everyone i have a VP commodore 1992. it has a blown head gasket in the original motor and many other dam problems. so i want to put the Ecotec v6 out of my VX into it. my VX is a write of so its just for parts i need to no step by step how to do it and what problems and mods i will have to do. and also i wanna try put the dashboard out of the vx and put it into my vp because it looks so much better do u think i have a chance of putting that in?
i have modified the seats to fit the vx seats in it looks good.
please please help!!!!!!!!!!![]()
o yea and how will i get around the immobilser because i have lost my key for my vx and ant gonna spend over $300 for a new key for a car that is gonna be striped lol can u bypass it when u put the loom into the vp
Your gonna need a big hammer and some gap filler to get that vx dash to fit![]()
are u serous lol coz it seams the same size i seen a vn have one but mayb the had to modified it
Def not a straight fit bud, gunna need a lot of mods to get that dash to fit in ya VP
oh i know this one *raises hand*. buy a VX.
ok cool well ill get back to the dashbored another time lol right now need to get the ecotec in now the big problem is i dont have the key so how am i gonna get around the immobilser anti theft thing and what mods will i have to do to put the ecotec the auto and the wiring loom
Sounds like a big project, Take pics as you go and you can fill us all in on how to fit one. Have you made any enquireies about it being legal though. About the imobiliser though, I dont know about the vx's, but i did bypass one on a vp motor so it could go into a hq, Which if it has similar wiring to an ecotec, it should simply be a matter of finding where the wire goes into the computer from the imobiliser and diconnect it off the imobiliser and hook it up to acc so it powers it when the ignition is on. But you will have to check the print to see if thats possible for you

No wonder you want to replace the dash in the VP, it looks like an abortion in that green colour.
Seriously, is it worth the time, effort and money doing all that you want to that VP?
I'd be chucking it in the bin and looking for an SS or Calais.
this is the way i brought the car
Get rid of that green colour in the dash, makes me vomit!!!
i will im gonna change the dash
This falls squarely into the category of "if you have to ask you probably shouldn't try".
