    Yes you need adapter brackets to mount C5 calipers.

    Little "x" on left hand screen. (Serv error)

    Most likely cause is the cluster has been swapped from another vehicle and not programed to suit the new one. ECC and SRS settings probably need to be changed.

    Lifespan of standard parts...

    i've had to replace most of the sensors on the engine, not because they stopped working, but the seals were shot and caused a ton of vacuum leaks.

    vt ls1 weak valve spring?

    Pulled the valve covers off the engine earlier to replace the gasket to see that the #1 lifter sitting lower than the others. Is this a sign i need new springs or is it something worse? Engine has 250,000kms on it. [/IMG]

    VY Fuel Consumption

    If your cruising on the highway you might find it to be slightly better, reason being when crusing the engine is "off-boost" ie the air is routed thru the bypass valve but its still heated by the supercharger cause its still spinning and slightly faster than before so hotter air = less dense air...

    VY SS Ls1 fuel effiency

    I can get close to 10l/100kms on LPG on the highway from melb to brissy, but around SE burbs i could only do a best of 16l/100. This is both before and after a maffless tune, it made SFA difference in economy. Idoubt you'll find much diffrence between the LS1 and the turbo around town, but on...

    LPG Injected, First service.......

    I'm not sure, i know they're required on the injector kits to stop gunk clogging the injectors.

    LPG Injected, First service.......

    All injected gas cars have gas filters before the vaporiser. It should only cost ~$50 - $100 to have it done, check for leaks, replace filter and check (and touchup if needed) tune. Shouldn't take more than an hour to do either.

    Liquid LPG injection

    Well i averaged 8.4l/100 on the highway with SVI on the old car, probably would have gotten better without the a/c on. You just don't seem to be having much luck pk2k78. But more importantly Liquid Injection. Finally got it on and i'm not gonna hold back with my opinions of it either...

    Hi these suit the vy/vz calais and berlina projector headlight lo-beams only. To fit them to a ss you need new globes (about $100) or the projector headlights. Cheers.

    Liquid LPG injection

    pump gas is a mixture of propane and butane, has a octane rating of 104 ron. Straight propane has a rating of 110ron. My car gets done in a few weeks and i plan on getting it dyno'd on all 3 fuels ( PULP, pumpgas and propane) just to see the diffrence.

    Out of curiosity were you using pump gas (ie mobil, bp) or the straight propane from Supagas?

    Vy Air Conditioning

    It's not a problem, its designed to do that. Under high load the a/c will switch off and the vents go to the floor posistion. Also does it on the non climate controled cars too.

    vy speakers

    i havent but i'm sure if i hooked them up to a 1000w amp i can.

    Does VY2 Calais have self levelling suspension

    its optional on the calais. If their is an airline running from the rear shocks then its got self leveling. You can disable it by diconnecting the pump. Chances are thoe when you lower it you'll get new shocks anyway i'm guessing so it wont matter, just make sure you remove the pump.

    h.i.d conversion

    You want HID's? Gerald at gadgetmaster is your man. Hid's flickering can be the balast not getting enough power. It's best to wire them up straight to the battery and use the factory wires as the trigger.

    Vt Lpg Gas Conversion

    Penrite HPR15. The oil would easily go for longer, but 7,000 kms is almost 6 months of my driving so that long enough for my likeing. I've always serviced my car at 7,000kms (or 6 months), even before the LPG conversion.
  40. danielsan

    Vt Lpg Gas Conversion

    Yes every 7,000kms. Same with my oil, every 7,000kms, it'ld probably go for 15,000 - 20,000 kms, but i prefer to change them at every service.
