Loving the VS mate, my first car was a VS Exec.

I'm putting the same spec cam into my VR ([email protected]), what sort gains did you get from the cam / valve train upgrade?

Keep up the good work :)

A VR wont benefit as much from the cam as an ecotec. My gains from the cam and valve train were in the vacinity of about 30kw

This ride is just getting sweeter and sweeter. I wish I removed my balance shaft a put a cam in while my motor was apart. still might. whats this about a locker? Thinking about puttin one in or has it got one all ready?

I'l be considering a 4wd systems lokka when i destroy my current LSD

how much did the sunrrof cost all up?

All up $100. Got the sunroof kit from my local self serve wrecker for $55. Installed it myself.

wow...this is a very inspiring thread for v6 owners! The car looks fantastic with very impressive power for the mods you have explained! I am a total newbi to engine mods etc so some (most) of the specs are over my head but will refer to this for some pointers. A great read. Well done on all your work mate.
