Na man not taking the ****, my mum had them for years and years on her VN..

I actually like them, really original man.

In regards to my old VN. Just sitting a level crossing with a car in front... VL hit me up the rear and chucked me into the car in front.... Buckled the rear and the front. Snapped the front seat and all... Straight right off...

Drove it around for 2 weeks while I waited for the cheque.

Miss it dearly...

Just founds some pics of my old VN...

Still miss it - rch-13z/oldVN - Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

nice car man hows the manual conversion going.
sounds like it will be good once its finished.

did i hear something about an ss kit. or was i just dreaming lol

[rch-13z]

yeah last cruise he had his white SS kit all hooked up... Managed to get the front bar off the wreck yet?

[mischa]

manual conversion is so close i can taste the clutch

yeah i got the front now, jsut need's painting, i was going to get it painted but then i thought "maybe i should finish the manual conversion first. So here i am

Ill have to get some new pic's up since i lowered the car, i compared it to a mates VN and i was stunned at how much better it looks!

[mischa]

Some photos of it with springs in, dose the front wheel look a bit pushed back or is it just me?

well u could have just looked at mine lol :P

[rch-13z]

I know alot of VNs have that problem with the front wheel being into the front guard.... I caused that in my mums old car by playing dodge-em cars with a gutter....

If it back in the guard the part costs about $35 to replace, its just the control arm or something..... Ill confirm later on if it actually becomes an issue..

picked up lvl 2 cluster today, and here's the CAI.

Whatever you do, do NOT fit this dash if you do not want a interior full of smoke. That dash is off the VR/VS series commodores and although look very similar are not interchangable.

old news, its already in since i converted it to a VN/VP cluster by changing the circuit on the back cause i like the look of it better.

[Haydz]

go mischa.
best looking vn thats still rolling on stockies.

will look mad with some rims and manual.

u remember that druggy guy. he has 2 19's with good tread.

he only bought two lol. coz he does too much circle work.. now there's a true bogan

[mischa]

lol, yeah the manual will look great, ill get people to stick there head under the car to see how shiny it is

lol, bogan to the max, like driving around in a 3 seater ute with a box of beer in the tray and a stolen tv and sound system?

[STEALTHY™]

Looks good dude.

Perfect slate to work some magic on. Do the manual conversion as one of the first mods, you'll thank yourself for it (i know i do every day)

So, 8 months on, are you thanking yourself every day for the manual conversion like i promised?

[mischa]

lol... its still auto... haha

[STEALTHY™]

LOL, thought it was done already....

[Haydz]

Haha. Mischa its not auto. its a vn invisi-box.

[HoldenManDan]

Lol, go easy on the man, its not far away at all now is it man? Will it be done before the august cruise?

Keep up the hard work man

[mischa]

lol, when haydz said 'invisi-box' that means there isn't a auto in it any more... and its got a extra pedal too

[mischa]

there's that extra pedal...

and replaced wipers and a new temp antena...

[Haydz]

haha mischa. hope the keys weren't in it to start it


do the wipers actually open up so you can clean it up properly when you wash the beast.

cheers for your help again... you don't have to worry about coming with me to drop off the flywheel. my mate is coming to pick up the lot tomorrow and get me a new clutch and machine the flywheel so yeah.


catch you later. did you drill the plate out of the auto?

get off ur butt.

about the steering wheel bolt i snapped. i will have a look and see if its possible to get them out.

btw don't forget to have a look in the manual about removing the diff. i might give it a go tomorrow arvo.

[mischa]

car is now a MANUAL series one manual conversion what a bitch!
