Project Black. My VN Calais From Wreck To Romance.

[jakeydee]

Hey Everyone I Have Just Bought A 1991 VN Calais V6 3.8L And I Want To Do A Complete Rebuild And Slap In A Twin Turbo Setup So I Thought This Would Be The Best Place To Show My Progress And Get Help Obtaining Parts. This Will Be A Photo Blog So Is I'm In The Wrong Section I Apologize In Advance.

Ok Getting A VR In A Week For Spares Just Wondering If Windows Are The Same Size And What The Main Differences Are Between The Cars?

I think the door glass is the same but the opera glass is a slightly different shape, other differences are electronically controlled trans and different exhaust mounting points at the back but they are very similar under the skin except for a few running changes like plug shapes and cosmetic appearance inside and out. Damn i want your gear knob i been chasing 1 for ages lol

ahh cheers.. my gear nob lol you might be able to have it for like $10 When The Vr Gets Here... I Dont Really Care I Dont Like The Woodgrain Plus Im Going For A Manual Anyways

Im Having Some Trouble Starting It Currently... It Kicks Over Starts Then Dies Like Straight Away? If I Hold Half Throttle Open While Starting Revs Get To 2k But Drops To Stall Over A Span Of Roughly 10 Seconds! Any Ideas? I Will Put A Video Up Next Week Sometime.
