1992 Holden VP Calais International (Anthrecite Grey)
I've just had a long trip up to Echuca from Geelong trade my dirt bike (that I said never I'd get rid of) for the following
1992 Holden VP Calais International
- Crane 284 Cam
- Crane heavy duty springs
- Torque Power Dual Plane Manifold
- 1000cfm 4 Barrel Throttle Body
- Ported and polished heads
- 3000 rpm Dominator stall
- 4.11 LSD Diff
- Twin 2.5" Exhaust (sounds GREAT)
- Hi-Tech Headers
- 18" Genuine HSV Grange Wheels
- HDT Cold Air tray
I had it out for a quick run down the court and back and it sounds great with a nice lumpy cam but I didn't stall it up as it hasn't got much fuel in it, it's so low that it scraps getting out of my driveway. It will be getting put to the back of the shed till I get my VS V8 ute on the road in the next couple of weeks by then I should have most of the parts I need to get it through it's RWC. I brought it so the wife can use it as a round town car instead of my GTS and once it's on the road I'll throw a stroker in it with some bigger injectors.
Here is a quick list of a few thing I know it will need
- Needs a roof lining (it's missing altogether)
- Roof and spoiler needs a respray (bit faded)
- Drivers seat need some material replaced (leather bolster is cracked)
- Rims have some small marks (might just get them blasted and powder coated)
- It's way to low as the previous owner had bags in it and wanted the same look but there's way it will pass RWC
- Cracked windscreen
- Bonnet has some holes from the gauges (get a new one and have it resprayed with the rest of the stuff)
I'll have a heap of photo's up tomorrow and a video that I'll throw up on YouTube but here is a couple for now-
