"vt l67 spac commodore today dirt cheap"

Hey all i just picked up a VT l67 spac today dirt cheap commodore basically i'm wondering what every single bit thats different to a non supercharged vt apart from the engine :)

if it's rattling it's tit's off that would be something i'd check

Blocked oil pick up is a common cause for these to sieze up

If the scratch isnt too big you could cover it up with "car lipstick"

It's all good man, It isnt really worth it but if you don't know how to spray it's really your only option.... but the panel beater has to make profit and pay there worker aswell

I don't make the prices. this is for a correctly prepped and painted door included remove and intall and labour a car at a wreckers is there for a reason it's bound to be scratched, faded, or dented more then likely faded being a red

When you have a passion for a certain car the idea of selling it to get money back never happens.

*UPDATE Found my vr Calais centre console in the rare cream colour going to try and swap the extra ciggie lighter, console light, rear floor lights and mercury switch in to my vn console

I Dare say it's the nuteral safety switch or loose connection easy fix ;)

$400-$600 maybe more because red is group 3

Or he has a vast selection of lock nut keys lol

There for heavy towing if you dont have it the gap between your doors and rear qauters will very slowly get bigger and bigger lol

The $400 budget is just for raising compression The cam comes with a tune and crow valve springs = $900 And i don't really have to worry about labour as my father is a mechanic/ trans builder/ exaust builder.... where can i get one of these cam dial gauges you speak of ? i wasnt really thinking...

But i wouldnt have to worry about valve clearence then would i ? I havent driven the car since it was stock so it's going to feel like a rocket regardless i just wanted to get it right the first time. Thanks for your help mate i'm off to find some copper gaskets i have heard port matching...

i'm yet to get the camshaft but i should be paying for it monday it's just one of those baby crow camshafts "stage 3" so comes with the tune and also got v8 throttle body extractors and that's it but i was looking at getting Yt 1.7:1 roller rockers Would i see any compression gains even...

i've been watching this thread for a while. Nice car got to love the old senators

i'm not sure but i think it's 8.5:1 standard so just something a little higher like 9.0:1 pretty much what ever i can get cheaply as i want abit more power with my camshaft... where would i go to get the heads shaved and whats a safe amount ? keeping in mind it's going to be a daily

Simple question i need to raise the compression on my vr v6 whats the most effective way of doing so for $400 or less ?

Well i'd say it's unsafe to pass a car doing 100 at 110 and safer to speed up to 120 just to get past but its not legal ...

Who here speeds up past 110 to over take on a broken line in a 110 zone ?

My dad has one of these, 2nd owner never been crashed has most option except the stroker option and is a vr

wiring is allready there, i believe it was plug and play as it was in my mums 92 vp executive wagon

CAREFULLY remove all the badges, clear side indicators (ebay $15) (If it doesnt come out with them)

Drop in a efi 5.0 out of a vn it's a simple conversion and you can pretty much buy a vn 5.0 and transfer all the running gear over.... k frame bolts up you'll have both looms aswell, if you use a borg warner diff it needs to be modified or it will be to wide... cheap easy fun.

Colour code the window trim!

You don't need anyone to hold the glass theres 3 screws on the inside of it aswell just leave one in to undo last...

Welded up the hole where my gas filler cap was :)

*UPDATE Gas fill hole has been welded up and car could possibly going full primer in the next few weeks just got to convince the missus to do more sanding with me lol Also might be getting an ecotec for free. has a bottom end knock but i'm thinking it might be worth rebuilding it as a...

Don't do it it doesn't look good, how ever a cv8 front on a vz would look mean as

i didnt think you could get all the statesman stuff to work because of the bcm ?

yes it is bolted on and can be un bolted but i think you have to remove the dash i know this because i took mine off :)
