Hey mate love ya car, thats a ewesome setup. keep it up.
Just letting you know i have a vp v6 with 3.7 diff gears and i think it is definatly worth it.
At 100k's it does around 2300rpm but didn't really effect the fuel economy to badly. And it actualy improved the economy around town, until...
Hey guys I'm just wondering what sort of paint i should be using to paint Mild steel intercooler piping? Can i goto a paint store and have it mixed up? and how much more would cost compared to ordinary auto paints?
What kind of finish will i achieve from the flame proof/engine paint you get...
Yeah the price is what got me going, but bit unsure of quality.
And going off what foamy has said i think my best option would be to stick to my SC14 setup.

I don't think the intercooler will protect ya charger from frying cos it cools down the air after the charger so the charger will still get as hot a usual.
Not so long a go street commodores ran a how to on installing a Mace twin t/b manifold to a vs commo, very simpole bolt up operation.
The car started of with high ratio rockers, pacemakers and 2 1/2" exhaust, over radiator CAI and i'm pretty sure thats it. Then they raced it and got a...
Long time no update an really this one isnt a good one.
Just after the new year i blew up the charger. Some how the oil sump **** its self, bearing seized up which then caused one of the shafts in the middle to bend/twist.
I'm still on the hunt for a replace ment but not having much luck...
I'm looking for a CRS supercharger, just charger not in kit form or a Toyot sc14 supercharger. Preferably in working order.
I live in Melbourne but i'm willing to work out arrangements for delivery. will pay good $$$ for working item.
I have a VP v6 witha crs supercharger an i was wondering if someone could post some pics of one with the TB infront of the charger?
Particuly the are of where the TB used to be and any brackets made for the accelerator cable. Also what was used to replace the standard accelerator cable...
I've only ever done it once and we spent about 3 hours to pull it out but we were stuffing around a bit then it took about the same to drop the new one back in. theres not alot to it, just gotta remember where the loom runs and what goes where. Simple really.
Give it a crack, you'll be...

Hey i'm new to this an i just wanna get my head around all this before i go off and buy a burner.
In this picture can someone please tell me what the sockets are?
oh crap, i meant to write 2 bar. where would i be looking to get an eprom burner? i really have no clue when it comes to tuning and all that sorta stuff, about all i know is how to spin a spanner.
Does that mean it would be possible to put on a rising rate fuel reg and run 6psi without a tune?
I have i risng rate reg and a 3 bar map sensor in my room, but dont really have money for a tune if i buy a bigger pulley.
At the moment on my car i have a bosch hi-flow fuel pump been told it...
When my o2 shat itself the car wouldn't idle unless i held on the accelerator and it wouldn't rev consistantly. Baiscly it turned in to a pile of **** that had a top spen or 20 km/h and no chance of idle.
On the weekend i had my bonnet up on the vp and the passenger side of it looked a bit lower than the other but i didn't think much of it at the time.
Then as i shut the bonnet i heard a massive "crunch" i look up and see that the back corner on passenger side hit the windscreen and cracked it...
I think the size of tyre you can fit ties in with the off set on the rim. I have 17" vy spac rims on my car 235 tires, an the rears scrape on small bumps and long turns and that with just the driver, but i haven't rolled my guards yet so oce i do that it'll be fine.
Nice car bloke, rims look suit the car well (pretty similar to mine actualy).
Good to see the kit gone, grpA will look tough once finished, also like how you've kept the calais style with the silver bumpers.
**** yeah thats tuff as. I've always loveed the Atlas Grey ss and this is a fine example.
Shame about the canary tho.
Good luck with getting it back on the road.
I think that is a great idea, so good infact that they should also enforce it upon hoons as well.
But also i regards to hooning i think more has to be done in "prevention". Like they have a good basis now for the punishment of hoons and its only going to get better, yet the government has...
Ok so i've got the same error code coming up, on my vp v6. When the motor is cold everything is just like normal but once it heats up it starts running rough and back fires anytime i try to accelerate, any ideas what it could be?
The CAS was changed last wednesday and then friday i get this...
Thanks for the quick replies.
No one would know of a program i could use to put two songs into the one track?
EG: i've got a song on my computer with no words and another ones thats only word, and want to mix them together any ideas?
Cheers.
Hey guys just wondering if anyone knows on any programs that you can use to crop/cut music tracks down? not sure of the right name to use for it.
EG: i've got a song that goes for say 3 minutes but i wanna chop it down to just a 15 second part for example to use on my phone as a ring tone...
Hey guys, been a while since i've made an update so here goes.
