Great job mate, haven't seen this thread in a while and decided to click on it, was very surprised when I seen that it had a LS1 in the engine bay haha. Makes me want to get a V8 now :(

Mind if i ask how much the conversion set you back?

Looking good man!

I don't think the cost will ever stop... but around 4-5k to buy the wreck and get it in. I paid 9k for the car so that puts me at 12k + another few grand for mods.


should have put the LS1 in the VS

*dodges hate*

No ty, engineers. Plus VS's are buckets of crap in every way compared to VX+

Correct. The perks of being married to a fully licensed driver :p

Not sure why there is so much hate going on. Everyone does thing differently and at the end of the day Naths VY now has a running LS engine in it and not a crappy ecotec.

Well done mate, can't wait to see what happens next.

I still don't understand how your being married to a fully licensed driver allows you to drive a V8 before you are allowed to. But :thumbsup:

Cheers
