Thanks for that info! I'm liking the sound of this 6 speed more and more! Will have to look into how hard it is to find one and obviously its going to be worth more too. Well by the looks of it i think ill be looking for a VN-VR T5 V8 gearbox or the T56 V8 gearbox and will probably go the cable...

Yea mate i've done about 3 manual conversions now, all on mates cars and they were all imports lol. Just trying to see what box i should be buying. I know the T5's are for the VN-VR/S V6 and the Getrag in the VS onwards for V6, but still unsure of V8 :(

Hey guys. Well once again i'd just like to call on your wealth of knowledge for yet another question that has probably been convered many many times before. I did a quick search on here but get too impatitient, so here goes. I own a 94 VR V8 SS. Currently auto. Deeply considering converting...

Im pretty sure its injectors because the car starts fine if started a short time after turning off, where as if left longer is very hard to start, lots of black smoke :( What happens with leaking injectors? Do i have to just replace them? Is it more likely to be more than one injector? How do i...

Thanks mate ill have to look into that, and i think you are onto something because today when i started the car i watched the back end and i saw a few puffs of black smoke (fuel) coming out the exhaust for a second or two while starting. One started there is no black smoke and car operates normally.

Hey guys. Recently aquired a 94 VR SS. It was starting fine when i picked it up and all that day. Now when i go to start it, it cranks for ages before it starts to fire and even then i have to give it a few pumps of the accelerator and she splutters back to life. Once the car is started it...

A knock sensor is essentilly that. Its a small sensor which is actually a microphone which listens out for detonation (pinging), the sensor sends information to the engines computer and it will adjust the timing until the detonation stops. Detonation happens when the air/fuel combust before...

This has probly been covered before but i obviously suck at searching. Are there any obvious ways to tell the difference between a Holden 5.0ltr and V6 torque converter? My flex plate isnt bolting onto my engine just wondering if i can use this torque converter or not. Pics attached...

Thanks for your replies guys. Ok cool ill note that compression ratio down. Yea, i think easiest option for me would be a Raptor or similar brand supercharger as you mentioned. I believe the crank with the motor is an Eagle crank. So from what you've said i might give it a miss. Ill probly just...

Ok, well im starting to get serious about starting a project of building a motor to put in a car of choice later on. First im going to build the motor. I want to do a 355 with some sort of blower to get a nice power figure. I have decided to stroke the 5ltr rather than droppin in an LS1 for many...

Sounds like somethings going on. Make sure you havent connected a wrong hose to the manifold somewhere, possibly a heater hose or something. I only think that because there was water pooled on top of your valve, had to have come in through the inlet manifold somewhere. And as to the engine...

Ok, ill have a think about it for a bit. I really wanted the car to sound nice too so leanin towards 5l for that fact and also would like to keep in fairly original but realising will have to spend more $$$ to do this. LS1 still an option though. Might go look at some Youtube videos :) Thanks...

Ok. So if i choose the LS1 transplant.. I'm looking at buying a motor and box obviously and the conversion kit (not sure what this would consist of as i'd probly do most of it myself apart from the wiring). Whats a good price for a LS1 motor and box and other needed bits and pieces (tailshaft...

Well my only real goal is to just have a nice powerful car to drive when i want. Reliability would be prefered but not imperative as i'll have a daily. For arguments sake id say between 11-13 second car. The car won't be used for only 1 thing ie: drift/drag, but more just a nice car to drive and...

Hey guys. Well just wanted to get some opinions or maybe advice and just wanted to hear from some other peoples experiences concerning V8 Engine conversions or builds. I've been thinking about building a nice VN SS for in about 6 months time to be driven on weekends and maybe to and from work if...

Build plate is behind the motor on the firewall, No: 206, also matches up with the number on the dash... again, 206.

Need her gone asap guys. Not going any lower than $2000. Thats a bargain, motor, box, diff, wiring, and panels would be worth more than that alone. Someone buy her please!! Heres the link in boostcrusing with details. 1994 Vr Senator (damaged) - Boostcruising.com

Got a 95 VS. HAS airconditioning, NO supercharger. Need to know how this damn belt goes on, i cant figure it out. Its either too long or too short. Can anyone have a look at their car and tell me please.. THANKS :d

I bought the kit off a mate who had it all made up for him on his car. I paid $500 for the whole lot. It was pretty cheap, or so he keeps telling me. HAHA.. Basically the pulley looks like it may have been made up for this application. Only reason i say so is coz it has welds around the outside...

Hey. When i said my gauge and other accessories are on my 'intake manifold' i mean that they are actually on the manifold itself, so it should get both boost and vac, i think u might be thinking that its before my supercharger. My boost gauge is sitting down in the part underneath my cd player...

Hey guys. I have a couple of threads on here about a couple of problems i've encountered after i put a CRS supercharger onto my VN Series 1 V6. I've gotten around my leaking rear main problem and not getting a vac anywhere. It all seems to be running ok now apart from my pipes blowing off...

Thanks guys. I blocked that hose off and problem is solved..

Hey guys, as the title suggests, I've just put a CRS supercharger on my series 1 V6 Vn and im trying to find somewhere to hook my BOV up to but every vaccum line is now running boost through it:my:. I have seriously looked everywhere, charcoal cannister, fuel reg....Its all boosting now... There...

Ok, so basically i just have to move or swap all my Vac lines to before the super charger and remove the one from the cover and it should stop this from happening? Also once ive done this, will i need to replace my seal? Or will it be ok to keep using the one thats already there. Thanks for...

Hey guys, got myself a series 1 Vn V6. Decided to put one of the CRS superchargers on.. And now my motor is blowing oil out the ass end of it. The blower is only running a 3 psi pulley so im sorta confused. Can anyone shed some light on why this is happenin and maybe a way of fixing it? Cheers

Hey guys.I had the same problem with my car when i out a 70mm tb on. It idles at like 1500 upwards. I found that quickly tapping the accelerator with my foot at idle would make it return down to its normal idle. Im not sure whether it was because the spring was new and was tight or something...

Well we all understand the base principal behind all of this. Less restriction on air flow is better as more air goes into your motor. The colder the temperature of the intake air is better because its more dense, thus allowing more air into the engine's combustion chamber. So from my...

Vs Hey dude. Car still for sale. Got pics? How much, where u located. Thanks

Hey thanks guys for all ur help. Its funny coz i just ended up glueing the strip back on because i really couldnt be bothered doing it all and risking it...

Hey all, just wanted to know if anyone had any ideas as to how to easily and carefully remove those annoying outer door trims and the glue underneath it that you have that goes down the side of the car, the black strip im talking about? Does anyone have a good method to remove it without...

Non irs buddy...its a complete set....270 for the lot For about 1 more week im wrecking my 91 series 2 VP commodore and then im just sending it to the wreckers. I have sold the injector rails and coil packs off the motor. EVERYTHING ELSE IS STILL AVAILABLE MOTOR AND BOX STILL IN GREAT...

they are super lows. however much that is, but on the car, with the 17's on with low profile tyres, it was tucking a bit of tyre. so their fairly low

Hi all, Idiot mate of mine (no longer a mate) borrowed my VP and managed to put it into a gutter :bang: The K frame is bent and i cant be bothered putting the new one in i brought. I lent the car to my mate because i have a new car and now that i have no need for the VP and its off the road...

A while after i got my 91 VP i noticed that when i accelerated really hard i could here a rubbing noise under the rear end of the car. I recently replaced the gearbox and when i removed the tail shaft i saw that there was a nice hole appearing in the chassis from where the tail shaft is rubbing...
