Hi guys so I'm in a dilemma, This is a Vn v6 Calais if that makes a difference Long story short I've wired a standalone ecu and moved the fuse box in the car. Now thing is my instrument lighting won't illuminate. Yet tacho and fuel work, temp gauge worked though I noticed one day the...

I have a speedo problem dunno how similar but Mine is a Calais cluster and on the push of the brakes my speedo goes to zero then On release comes back up. Also when I turn head lights or Parker's the speedo drops to 0. Weird as and sometimes it doesnt even work then Sometimes I press...

Hi guys, Are there vn sunroofs that came out without glass. I'm wanting to get a sunroof and was pretty sure I've seen painted ones?

Nobody? So I've come into more info dash light won't work with dome light button on when car is started. Only have dash lights if a door is open and dome light button is switched on when car is started. What circuit does the dome light run on? Does it intergrate with the driving light...

So I'm in a pickle.? somehow my dome light switch combined with light switch in either parkers or low beams will trigger the instrument cluster to illuminate but without the dome light switch pressed in the lights on the car work as per normal but the cluster lighting has no lights on...

This is exactly what happend to me any ideas or can anyone shed light on this? I have pulled the dash apart and same thing happens

Just gonna setup a 2 speed fan like the hot rods use.

So currently im going to be painting my bay, hiding all the wiring and also wiring my new ecu. so im thinking of placing the coil packs where my heater box was and have included a picture of what i will be doing. Now just thinking if it will cause any problems with my ecu wiring for the...

Nah mate do everything myself, apart from manifolds and pipe work they got made up and dummied up but I finnished the fitting. Labour would be double ;) then I really woulda went an LSX block to begin with.

I bought a come stroker kit. Diamond pistons, H beam rods, Steel crank, Bearings and rings. That's actually a good price think there abit more then that? Nah I haven't driven the new motor just had a stock motor which made 285rwkw on e85 with a garrett 35/40. Ran 11.6 before I drove...

Pretty much nearly completed my v6 4.2l build. I'm going overboard though, Just roughly how much I've spent so far. 5k on stroker 3k on manifolds, cooler pipes, exhaust and catch cans + some little fab work 1k fuel system 2k turbo 2k haltech ps2000 2k turbo400 I haven't complete the...

I have a brand new converter that was fitted to my new built box but have no need for it as i put a turbo converter in now. did about 100'ks before my turbo was fitted and i had bought a new converter... if you want photos let me know i have it sitting in my garage. i want $200 plus...

Just suppose to lock out reverse. So you don't ratchet into reverse.

Seen a few posts saying urethane top arms but wanna know from experience..

Mines on ultras in the rear and supers on the front, Mine will only scrape the tips down decent driveways with full car load of 80+kgs guys also it acctually drives better with 3 people in the back more comfort but thats my personal experience. Ultras sit ugly without anyone in the back i think.

Before the tune with old exhaust it made 88. Also was turning the tyres. Though dyno was just for afr's Figured I just chuck that in the footage either way. With those times it's making around high 130rwkw. Thanks guys it's gonna be n/a for a little bit more, Then boost will be...

My VN 6 finally in the 14's VN V6 Calais S3XDUP 14sec - YouTube

Thanks mate =) haha thanks mate, im glad you boys liked it... I cant explain to you when i seen the time clock click 14.8 haha picking up 4 tenths from a tune didnt think that would be possible with my combo but skipped the 14.9's and went straight to the 14.8's goodluck with your build...

haha thanks mate, the colour was one of the reasons i bought this car when i did 3 years ago I saw potential and here it is pretty much the way i want it only needs a engine bay makeover i think

Thanks mate, jason is a gun tuner cant complain picked up 4 tenths with his tune so im over the moon. Nah bud that was full street trim bar the spare wheel. Dont really wanna ditch the aircon as its good to cruise around in summer :P haha its my daily so i want all the goodies. Though if you...

Well took the car out too calder again. FINALLY BROKE INTO THE 14's =) I was soo excited i lost my voice after the first run =) The car has been dyno'd at CK Automotive and with the dyno sheet i have sent it off to Jason (Greenfoam) who tuned the memcal accordingly. Picked up another 10kw+...

Thanks for that info brett, well i have been getting info together seems im going to be getting, Junker vr or vn/ vp s2 motor for the build, 2 x R32 garrett turbos, walbro fuel pump 342, siemans 60lb injectors, going to be buying a block shortly to go ahead with the project, going to be a long...

Hi Aaron been following your car on the other forum :), and have been watching for a long time has come a Lon way mate must say your really setting the field :p Is that your surge tank in the engine bay where the airbox once existed? Also what fuel pump you running as im goin downthe twin...

The crow tune is junk aswell. Get it re tuned bud. I had stock memcal then Crow memcal and difference was idle was fixed a little and also 3 rwkw :p Though it says throttle body should be stock and I had a 70mm But can't see that making the tune up to $h!t. I was close to paying for a dyno tune...

Alright guys, before you say hit the search button I have... Engine is a S1 VN that's 60k old and has a crow cam, heads have been done, also has a 2800 converter with rebuilt auto and diff So what I want to know is What turbos for the twin setup would be suited, I was looking at either a...

as above mine scrub the front plastic inner guards at half lock, i have an adjustable panhard and ultras in the rear no scrubbing. with 19' 235-35

you willing to part just the turbo kit?

Well mate I made 90rwkw and ran 15.5 With converter it ran 15.2 Dynos are for the tip... Only good to have a base map for afr's Track does the talking so don't worry what you made it will be different everywhere you go.

Where you from? if your in melbourne ill take it.

Hi mate, Just wondering if you would be able to tune my memcal. It's a Vn v6 s1 Crow cam stage 3, I can give you specs if you don't know them already 70mm throttle body Extractors with twin cats then into 2.5in with 2 mufflers. K&n panel with super 6 otr Also has 2800 converter though don't...

Updating some info..... cars been out of action for a few months getting some paint and bits and pieces put in and on. Had the exhaust re done, got some wheels and best of all its now back on the road. =) Pics where after yesterdays Cruise For Charity 8.

How much to Melbourne? For sides

Crow Tune, getting re tuned again by crow to my current afr's The standard tune dynod 4 kw less but way lean up top. Did over 14 pulls with all different changes like air box out and lalala and air filter out and all that business. It loses power. but then again the track does the talking.

list? none of that otr crap works even though i have it i put it on the dyno made nothing worth paying for, 70mm t/b went backwards spark plugs didnt do anything neither did 9mm leads. all that wank bolt on stuff did nothing.

Fair enough but in all seriousness no cop has ever diked me for anything or my mates we all have the one thing noticeable and that is extractors. Been pulled up multiple times and just say its running rough and its due for a service they dont really touch you if you have a N/A 6 performance wise...

How so when say a ve sv6 is well over 20?? also 8 grand to stick it to 5l's and alloytechs on your p's is worth it =) i think to still retain within the p plate laws, its worth it but its just like saying you spent 10grand on a ve alloytech to go mid 14's or whatever they do.... dont quote...

put it this way bud dont bother getting one of them 70mm throttle bodys as i lost power, and didnt acheive nothing 3.9's, cam and a built box should go good, well with my rebuilt motor and cam with 3.9's ran 15.5 currently getting a 2500 converter... i spent already hmmm 8grand+ lol so...

Quickest 90rwkw Vn Calais v6 :) Turbo coming end of year and hope that in the next 2 years I got don't get pulled up.

Yeah I'll give it a bleed and see how we go I'll replace the overflow hoses as I just found a kink lol now I know why it wasn't feeding water it was zip tied against radiator support zzz Should be good now Thanks for your input

Nah it was a hose clamp loose and heater tap is new, umm I have convertered the radiator and overflow to s2 I have s2 heads the only thing is not s2 is the manifold with thermostat at the back. What problems did you have?
