My 1989 VN.

[HoldenManDan]

its a screenshot from a video, ill see if its still on my camera and post the vid instead

I dont care where its from, this thread is about mischa's car. With his diff gears and a better launch to boot, it'll be quicker than yours, g-tech or no g-tech. Post the vid on your own thread, not here.

Oh and pmsl @ rich!

How's the LSD and new gears feeling so far mischa? After it's done it's first 1500km, let me know if ya need help getting it back up penrith way for new diff oil.

Oh and definately get the friction modifier additive put in when he does the oil. Costs a little bit extra, but will prolong the life of the diff.

[mischa]

Yeah you guys go fight somewhere else! haha.

Anyway i found out today that my front lip is either genuwine Holden VN SS or a really good copy.

Oh and dan ill def come up and see you when i get the oil done, ive already done 600km so proberly one more week with the bathurst cruise But i can tell you now im never buying a car without a LSD ever!!!

Anyway, now i need soem power windows switchs, got the regulators already.

Meh I'm over it. But yes you'll have to wear them in for around 1500km too, before it's recommended that the diff oil be changed.

Sounds like you're loving it already mischa! Keep up the good work

[mischa]

Got power windows to go in now, just missing the door trims that ill need to find somewhere...

I do have some just there calais brown with the seats aswell, so im getting rid of them. Thought i would see how it looked but.... no....

[nathg]

New twin exhaust setup, all the craze now since Mischa has been sporting them on his beast
haha good times.

[mischa]

lol, there called 'stacks'

[nathg]

yeah, just the driver has to watch as they MAY collapse inwards and cause rapid fire ha

[mischa]

Ok, went nuts this arvo with the car since its the weekend to get the power windows and central locking in. Both rear doors done, Ill let the picture explain what i got up to aswell.

Anyway, now im off to the wreckers tomorrow to get climate control, power mirrors and a few little bits i broke Its going to be a LONG weekend!

[<RaBBiT>]

gd luk with the climate control doesn't sound like a fun job

[TVR-190]

take out the sound deadener while your doing it, VN Exec superleggera

[mischa]

Climate control HVAC (i think its called that) is in the car now. Just got to do all the wiring and attach the coolent lines back up and fill it up again. Also Power Mirrors and Windows are all in.

So this whole just installing power windows thing has turned into,

Power Windows
Power Mirrors
Central Locking (holden)
Alarm (after market)
Climate Control
Coolant flush
Aircon Regas

Also alot of the wiring that i have added before is getting a nice tidy up since i have it all there infront of me now and im not upside down underneath the dash soldering it all

[mischa]

Picture's with pretty much everything out of the car,



and the HVAC units, climate is on the right,

[nathg]

Fusion speakers FTW lol

[Haydz]

hope you remember where everything goes.

[Haydz]

[TVR-190]

whats to look at, its a buick 3800, it aint pretty

[mischa]

What he said ^^^

Anyway done all the wiring for the alarm today, pain in the arse i need to post up the instruction that came with it there crap!

I will take on the wiring of the climate tomorrow and putting the car back together hopfully But i got the power windows in and completly working now Still got to put the central locking in and then figure out how to wire that up to the alarm.

I also have forgoten where half the things go and im sure ill have about 20 screws left over.

[Haydz]

well i was looking for a pic of a series one engine bay for reference today.

when i look here and guess what. no effing pictures

[mischa]

Climate Control is in, but i thing the fan speed resister is stuffed so i need a new one of them for fans speeds 1 and 2. Other then that its working perfectly!

Alarm's installed, just need to connect the boot and bonnet and boot release up to aswell as the central locking.

Altho my interia parts got COVERED in dust cause i left them out the back!!

[andyman]

mischa that aint a bad effort for just power windows haha,

dont worry about cleaning them, they'll oinly get dusty again tonoght

[mischa]

Cars 70% back together, central lockings working but not connected to the alarm yet dont know how to.

Went to fix the power steering pump this arvo, turned the house upside down to find the rebuild kit and its gone. Thats two things that have vanished now aswell as the sun sensor!

I also found out my tailshaft has seen better days and thats gona cost about $700 unexpected dollors.

And below a picture from the latest JCCC NSW outing

[padrickz88]

Looks tuff as hell in the 1st pic

[HoldenManDan]

lol wheres the pics with the cone stuck under the front, they're priceless!

Whats happened with your tailshaft dude? Also how'd u find out it's stuffed? I think my diff needs some attention after the skid day as well...

[mischa]

Climate Controls now 100% working now! Apart from the aircon gas, and the lights im replacing with LED's in the modual.

All power windows are in and door trims back on and all working fine.

Now, for my latest contingency,
