pretty sure they added a few additives or something to it to make the oil better. Gave it a better classification. Something along those lines, i remember Steve from Mainlube saying something about it. Ive used it and have mixed it with another brand 10/60 and its fine :)

My old VT's bay.

Nice car! love it.

So true. Have a look around at the guys running the numbers/mph at the strip. Those mods are what you want to produce something around the 300rwkw. Higgins 241 heads are a start but aftermarket heads eg AFR, TFS, Mast etc are what you want. A cam in the 23x + range aswell. In a Caprice...

Part number should be on the side of it somewhere, pics would be best though. Cheers.

Thats your coolant steam pipe. Leak would be coming from the PCV Valve. Probably cost $90 for a whole new PCV system from Holden. Also check out your intake manifold gaskets and valley cover gasket.

Pics of inlet manifold if it's for a 6L?

Your talking about eFlex which can vary depending on the season. E85 stands for 85% ethanol.

Does everyone look at the adelaide now website? And for the people who have read the article and voted, its pretty clear that 'generally' everyone thinks the same way.

This shows your level of intellect.

Im contemplating buying an old bomb so my good car doesnt get defected lol

I cant believe this thread is still going.... but from the poll on the Adelaide Now website.. Is this a reasonable penalty - or sneaky revenue-raising? A reasonable penalty 7.24% (48 votes) Sneaky revenue-raising 92.76% (615 votes) Total votes: 663 That says it all.

I just plugged mine back in with a maffless e85 tune whilst goin through regency for my inspection. They did look to see if it was plugged in but did not disconnect it. I've also relocated my PCM and they did not notice it was missing.

Anyone have one?

I suppose the SA Government have to pay for the RAH Hospital budget blow out and the Adelaide Oval redevelopment somehow.. (and even Keven Foley's legal fees too i suspect)

Good luck, you'll need it. You may have a better chance running on E85.

Over a year since i updated this thread lol Well, i got defected July last year and only just got it back on the road now. Pulled the whole driveline out in the process, new diff, tailshaft etc. I pulled the engine apart myself and fitted all new gaskets, sump, rear main, front cover, fitted...

where did you get the strut brace for only $35?

You'd need new headlights and grill. Maybe possibly a bonnet?

It wont run, your car requires air flow through the Maf as it is a vital sensor for the engine to operate. I found this out the other day. My car started then died within 2 seconds.
