5sp L67 vs ute

[Tom_1569]

The conversion was very easy. I used my existing ecotec loom and extended some wires on the left side and a couple on the right side. If your going auto its probly best to source a l67 ecu and plug the ecotec loom straight into that. If going manual then get your current ecu re mapped to suit manual+L67. No need to source a l67 loom

All bolt ons are the same except plugs are colder and leads are slightly longer. Im running a dual core alloy radiator but the standard one will do the job fine. It is pretty heavy on fuel im only just getting 400km to a tank with a mix of city and freeway driving. Ive heard of alot of people getting 500+ with theres so id say mines not running the best. Its been running abit hot laterly with these 40c+ days so maybe thats got something to do with it aslo the exposed pod wont be h elping at all. Definitly look into doing the conversion it was worth every cent and love the compliments when i open the boonet.

Any other questions dont be afraid to ask

Cheers for the reply. Very keen to do this, fuel consumption will probably kill me haha.

You've done a good job, and the ute looks very clean.

Thanks mate. Im pretty proud of myself. Just turned 18. Never done anything like this before and tackled the conversion pretty much on my own with no real problems so far Cant wait to get back to work and start saving again to get some more stuff done.

Nice ute mate, looks real clean how did you go about redoing your rooflining mines currently stuck to the roof with safety pins lol. also your ute sits about the same height as mine in the rear im guessing it is rough as f**k did having stockies on the back make the ride any better?

Thanks mate, there is a how to in the how to section wich is realy helpfull. Follow that and you will be right I havent seen many as low as mine in the back. I have cut the bumpstops off completly including the bracket holding them on. The shocks are monroe lowerd shocks and they know bottom out so im after some with a shorter stroke then that. Stockies dont make much of a difference.

Heres a pic of how the rear sits mate (exuse the primer)




Well got myself a pioneer fold out dvd screen realy cheap of a mate so that will be going in very soon
