make sure u check that steam in the cabin thing as well christina, if this bcm has pissed u right off, imagine as what i presume a heater core blowing up and the cost and time to get that fixed, now that would be a pain in the arse. let alone if u keep driving it and the motor seizes cuz its...

hey everyone, ive stripped the paint back on a set of vk calais rims and centre caps, got onto the autosol on the centre cap for that mirror finish, but to finish the whole job, should i... a) coat the whole lot in clear coat b) leave the finish as it is and polish time to time or...

hey dayvo, nah its not that, i should have mentioned when i pulled the hose off that the one way valve was connected, so i blocked that off when the engine was running to check it, theres a vaccuum when u block it off therefore the one way valve has no leaks. vacuum air leak is from inside the...

hey guys, today i had the unfortunate experience of the brake booster on my vk pack up on me, its not fun at all luckily i didnt have to much traffic to contend with and limped home. when engine is running, its leaking where the rod goes in and whenever u pump the pedal a loss of vacuum, loud...

what springs front and rear do you have on the vk??

calais door moulds, s/low springs im interested in the calais door shells=moulds (bottom of doors +front 1/4 panels)?, are they in good condition ie no/minimal cracks and mounting lugs intact etc? and also the king springs s/low for 6 cyl as well.. are both these items still available? im in...

hey guys yeah thanks for the comments.. thats what ive heard with the centre dish piece on the vt ss rims.. i guess all i can do is try them on and go from there. i dont want the nuts to take the load of the wheel. the hub has to. i know mates who have aftermarket rims and doesnt have a plastic...

ok ive got a workmate whos offered me some 17'' vt ss wheels with good tread, but i have heard on the grapevine that they dont fit up and some sort of modification has to be done to fit on the hub? the vk has disc front and drum rear. hope u guys can fill me in on this cheers cam

if you dont have to change the length of the tailshaft, change the front yoke over or change the rear yoke to what fits on the car. if u cant do this yaself, hop up to ya local mechanic and im sure he can change the yokes over and while ur at it get front and rear uni joints changed as well. one...

or just go to a motor trimmer and they can make one for you. even better if uve got a shabby old one so they can copy it. plus then u can make it out of real good leather, different colours as well. my last one i got done costed $30 (fake leather) and took half hour for them to make

with the ultra lows, i gather they are king spring ultra lows? do the scrub on front and rear? the wholesaler reccons there gunna scrub and sum say they dont!? as for ur auto, get one done up autos in vks arent bad, ive got a 6 with a beefed up trimatic shift kitted, and a 2200 stall...

well the main reason to get a hi stall is to get into the starting power band of a camshaft, i have a 30/70 cam and its power band is between 2200 and 5200 rpm which is pretty good for a dd and matches the stall converter. if u have a stock cam i would not worry about a hi stall as u will lose...

ok at the moment ive got a 202 mated to a trimatic with a 2200 hi stall converter, the converter costs me $330 to my door from wholesaleautomatics. do a search on the net and there site will come up. great guys to deal with and the converter is tops. any more than 2200rpm stall converter and u...

vk turbo 202 ul find turbo kits coming around here and there, the first motor i did up for the vk was a turbo 202, rebuilt a stock motor, decomp plate the head and bought a 2nd hand turbo kit with recoed turbo for 1800 with all the plumbing, carbie (twin su's) and modified sump. went very very...

easily the 10mm spanner and socket.. **** me to tears sumtimes haha

c'mon finsh it off :D and everywhere where mary went you could see her lovely c_unt!!!

looks good, dunno bout that steering wheel, i know duct tape has plenty of uses though.. over all a top looking car like the 5l conversion, as for suspension, what springs are u running on it?

hey kbarker, my name is cam, and i wouldnt mind helping a fellow commodore owner out. im actually from south syd, but i work east syd as an agricultural mechanic. As for my vk, i do all the servicing, rebuilt the motor with performance goodies, body repairs, suspension and steering and so on...

where are u from?

very true grunter, efi would be specially good on a stock motor. if u wish to do any performance mods like a different cam, the efi sides of things will cost u alot more because u will have to reprogram the efi system. -Cam

vl rear light heres a vl rear light setup on a vk, i dont think it looks really good though, the garnishes around the light seem to put it off a bit.. each to there own really, but i hope this pic gives u some idea (7th pic down)...

stay with the varajet Definietely stay with the varijet on a black 202, its not a bad carby, but if ur experienceing problems with it its not so well. mostly the reason why the carby is referred to as being **** because it is hard to tune and the choke can play up. the choke controls all the...

just sumthin to add onto ur post there, this is a straight swap into an exec/sl with the ecconomy gauge, if ur speedo/odo has less than the one thats for sale, u can swap ur old speedo/odo into the tacho cluster. -cam

on a varijet which is what u should have, the secondary system is suppose to open 2/3 throttle when the choke has fully opened. i find with my commodore if the choke is not fully open after running it for 10 mins out and about, it will sumtimes open the secondaries at full throttle. (probably...

thirsty 202 hey noob_vk, sounds like ur commy is drinking a bit tooo much for the amount of k's u can get out of a tank. if uve got a carbed 6, i suggest looking at the varijets choke to see if its fully open when warm and that the secondary throttle valve opens to, varijets have a tendancy...

efi upgrade hey cyberjo i can answer some of these questions for you. 1. yes u can fit a 12 port head on the red block, u have to drill new passages for the water galleries (4 from memory - not to hard), using a blue/black head gasket as a template is the go, previous red motor water gallery...

vk wiring hey bert05, best thing to use is a multimeter, 1 connection will have power all the time, and another will have power when the car is switched onto accesories. from memory the wires i used are red and orange from the cars loom connector. one wire has 12v all the time, the other...

253 and radiator hey cameroo81, id just like to inform u that the 253 swap mite not be possible due to the age of the motor, since vks did not come out with a 253, that means the motor is older than the car itself, this only really affects the rta when they change ur engine number on there...

hi stall not hey andy, you should really reply in the original thread, but anyway, sounds like uve just been given a stock torque converter. get onto dominator right away as no way thats a 2300 hi stall converter if ya wheels start smoking up at 1500 rpm. if u have a 2300rpm stall...

no worries dude!

hi stall converter what do u mean by sets off at any revs?? ive got a 2200 stall converter done by wholesale automatics, and the way to check how the stall converter works is by applying brakes and accelerator till the revs hold, with brakes fully held and hi stall stalled up, mines about...
