G'day, I hope I've posted this is in the right area. I'm looking at buying a VYII SS with lots of Ks on it and I want someone to rebuild the engine, brakes, suspension, steering. I'll also need you to view the car and give your opinion and transport it to your workshop to do the work. Why...

Hi all, I'm looking at a VH with a 253 and also offered is a 308 engine with the car. I'm in Queensland and would like to know if I put the 308 in the car would it need to be passed by an engineer and have the plate put in the engine bay? I know it's a straight swap but what does Queensland...

For outback driving; less technology = simplicity. I was expecting this but I appreciate any input.

Hi all, I have a question. Is it possible to convert a Nissan RB30 in a VL from injected to a carburettor? Is it possible to go to a Nissan wreckers and buy an older style manifold and carby set up for this motor. I'm not an expert in this area so work with me on this. Is it possible? Any...

Sorry guys my mistake. They are 15 x 7 and I've got FE2 springs on the car. From reading the posts where someone said the police used 225/60 I think I'll go for them.Thanks for the info and I'll double check my posts in the future.

Hi all, I've got a set of 14 x 7 chaser steel rims for my VX II sedan and want to get your ideas on what size tyre to go for. I know the standard size is a 205/65R15 but it there anything better to get away from the grandpa look. Obviously I'm no tyre expert but looking for perhaps a lower...

Hi all, can someone out there send me or post a pic of VX Series II (mid 2002) Executive wheel covers. I have a set of 16 inch mags I want to replace with stock rims and covers but I'm confused about the different styles of different models. I've looked on Ebay and it's a mess. Thanks, Bruce.

Hi guys, I have a VX II Executive and the antenna is stuck in the up position. The fuse seems to be ok as the radio and hazard lights work fine and there is no noise from the antenna when I turn the ignition off and on and the radio off and on. What are your thoughts? Should I try some...

Hi guys, just wondering what was in the boot and where on VLs when new. Where are the jack, jack handle and wheel brace located and does anyone have any pics they can post. Trying to keep my VL as stock and original as possible. Thanks, Bruce.

Hi Darren, if you don't mind I'd like to pick your brains from time to time regarding this project with the odd question via this thread. After looking at diffs on Ebay and the cost of the Borg Warner diffs I found this: 9 Inch LSD Diff Holden in Melbourne, VIC | eBay Not too bad really, I...

Thanks heaps, Darren. Lots of good info to help get me started. I may have to go with a Borg Warner T5 box and Salisbury diff to get me started though. The Getrag boxes are a little expensive and do you think the diff would be an easy find or is it a custom build? I'll have to pick up the Real...

Hi all, This is my first post and early my research tells me this is the place to be to help me on my new project. I'm an XU-1 bloke, have been for 25 years, and would like to build a replica (as close as possible) to Brock's 1987 Bathurst winning VL. I need a new project as I'm getting a...
