- VF Calais V 6.0
Actually sold the car last Friday but what a beautiful car to drive. It had an open 2.92ratio factory and I fitted a diff with 3.27 and had speedo calibrated it gave it .5 sec better quarter mile time, was faster straight away with far better pull down low. And was nice at 100 kph with good low revs still. I highly recommend this diff change as a mechanic by trade the 2.92 ratio is better suited for 140 kph cruising . The 3.27 was far nicer. It was hard to sell but I had loads of fun and have bought a new High spec car to replace my calais. If you want a better car than this calais expect to spend lots of money. The VF Calais V is a brilliant car especially in 6L and mods make it fast too. I jad this car for two years and went from a flat 14.00sec on old tyres to 12.7 on factory size New good years. It was a sub 5sec 0-100 kph car when it got traction. I also fitted the harrop trutrac lsd. It just meant the lsd won't fail like the original clutch operated one.
