my new project VQ Caprice

yeh the vq's get the vn headlights and indicators as they are vn based, not sure if i want to go changing to much looks wise as i think once the front lip is on then it will look the part.

as for the vn ss lip they are actually differnt as the lip dosent have the provisions for the fog lights....

thanks for the comments guys....

engine bay is getting a little better, still needs a clean and the rockers painted once i get some gaskets for them

well she is running, pritty sure it was only the coil but ended up changing dizzy, rotor, leads, cap, coil, ignition module and inlet manifold gaskets and it still didnt run.

so went back to original problem fuel pump wiring and guess wat the wires were wrong way around, so a quick swap of that and she fired, set the timming and its running great..

also filled with new coolant aswell.

have gotten a new steering rack still to fit, and also irs diff cradle.

and also the climate control dosent change where the air blows so will look into that aswell..

fair o

the blue's different tho. polished sucks, looks gr8 but is hard to keep clean and get water marks real easy. chrome might be easier to keep clean.
