    (sigh) yeah mate, lesson learnt. Don't do 2 hundy on an ungulating road.. Nothing wrong with skids in a controlled enviroment.

    We're pretty lucky to get the use of the pad like, glad that bros neighbours don't mind the smoke and the noise. ;) I only went through 2 sets of rears that night.

    I did, thanks. Just hope others enjoyed it as much as I did. I still drove it home the next day.

    Thanks mate. Hope to be uploading a couple of pix n vids here this time next week. But then I'll be 50. Man how time flies.

    It's getting closer to me n bros 50th. (next weekend) Really looking forward to it but not just for the skids. Thought I'd upload this (wanky) pic of both my VX's. I know this is Just Commodores but hopefully no one will mind this picture. I love my Toyota VX 80 Series Landcruiser. :) I met a...

    Cheers mate. It kicks off on the 24th of May. ;)

    My VX Clubby rebuild

    I'm sure there's plenty of rides that cruz the streets turbo'd or charged that would disagree mate. ;) It's just a personal thing. My twin brother and I have our 50th party next month. I've saved up some rubber to incinerate on the night. Really looking forward to this one. I'll throw up a link...

    It's a sickness I tell ya. Mates that know I'm after the waspies say, "turb it Pete", or "supercharge it Pete!" I'm like, nah. Then they look at me strangely. haha It's simple. I prefer the sound of a sick cam to anything else. I'll never forget the first time I took my young son (at the time)...

    My VX Clubby rebuild

    I'm copying other good ideas I see or learn. So I'm good with that mate. ;) It'll be like, by the time I get 500hp at the tread everyone else will be, "pfffft, is that all? 750hp at the tread is the norm now". :)

    My VX Clubby rebuild

    duh. Still only just over 400 horses at the wheels. :( To stay n/a and reach that 500 mark? Seems like a big jump, but I'll get there one day. ;) I'm a slave to n/a. I just love non turbo/supercharge engines. It's a sickness. haha

    "waspies" ? Sorry don't follow (been a long day). Cheers. It's been busy. How about yourself? No post coz it's pretty much finished now. Well, I was thinking of LS3 heads (the cam profile was made to suit them) and maybe a stroker kit. But I got to save my pennies first. ;) Check out what...

    Went back to the original looking bars.

    It's good that they're so easy to remove. And there I was thinking about getting them tinited. These clip ons are great.

    David coz he's around my age and I talk to my car too. lol
  25. peteVX6L

    My VX Clubby rebuild

    I'd have to agree with you there. Ahh well. They clip firmly on so it's only a matter of lifting the hood and removing them. Very easy.

    I'll always miss Holly my first Staffy. But I love them so much I had to get another. Not just any other either. I'm not going to go into it here. Staffy's rule. r.i.p Holly.

    I'm sure where you are I wouldn't last 5 minutes but over here they are allowed unit the hours of darkest apply. ;) I knew showing this pic in Aussy would start something. In NZ it's no big deal, lost of people drive with the same head lights.

    I installed some light covers the other day. Changes the look a bit.

    I'll upload some dash cam later but it drives surprisingly smooth.

    Was wanting more but that's how it goes. Just getting a price on some L98 heads. Do that then I'm done. ;)

    Both. But the last dyno sheet I posted was with them closed.

    The flow is getting upset by them so I'm told.

    It's on the dyno again this weekend after I removed the cutoffs. I'll through up the results tomorrow. Not expecting big numbers at this stage.

    My VX Clubby rebuild

    All good. The pushrods are aftermarket (.50 tho longer). If the heads come off I'll be doing value guides. Not sure about the rockers. The valve springs are new dual VCM's. These guys have done plenty of cams and tunes so even though the cam spec sheet isn't out there I know they'll be trying to...

    Sweet build thread. Loved that vid of it on the dyno. ;) Have you had it down the 1/4 mile?

    King Springs super low or ultra ??

    I used to run King's "super low" but went to their "ultra low" a short time ago. I had the rear guards rolled as they were touching. The springs have settled in now. Around town it's not to bad. But scuffing judder bars is normal. But because it's not a daily driver it's not a biggie. Top...

    Yeah nah. :) The cam's spec sheet as requested.
