Kyles Vx Ls2

How did you do an entire 6L engine and gearbox (and diff in that case) conversion, plus the VY coulson interior, brake and suspension upgrade etc etc in only 4 weeks working at home???

Now i'm not sure about you, but I use to work as a mechanic and that seems like an awesome feat for a 16 year old (are anyone for that matter) to do out of home. You must have one great set up of tools, engine hoists etc etc in your garage. And like the other guys said - too have that kind of cash to throw around at your age, well I don't know what to say about that.

the images need to be hosted somewhere - eg photo bucket or myspace or something.

you will need to go to the photo and right click the image - select save link or copy link location (after right clicking the image) and then have that url handy and open up a new tab to this forum select new post.

then insert image with the "post card" looking button and paste in that url and there you have it - convoluded yes - but doesnt clog up the loads on the servers. hope that helps buddy.

also...

im also not sure about this car being yours and being owned by you - by the sounds of it it's your dads car or something there has to be atleast 20k spent on that thing. and for a 16 y/old that's probly not going to happen - however put up the pics for us mate.

Sure it wasn't a VZ R8? The VY was an LS1, and didn't have the drive-by-wire throttle I can see on yours when it's on the bench.
