VN Calais 5L

[Renno]

**Update**

Got my tank straps back yesterday.....mmm chrome lol...

And today i thought id start my suspension hunt and begin gathering the parts for a complete overhaul.....

Went to Car Torque (thanks Gilbo for the heads up on these guys, there minds are full of info) and got myself some of the stuff that will be helping the VN through the hills and around Adelaide...

I got a Whiteline mid mount alloy strut brace for the front end...

Also a Whiteline on-car adjustable panhard rod....

And for $30 more than a fixed sway bar i got a 27mm Whiteline blade type adjustable heavy duty front swaybar....

I also got my self a rear version of this sway bar on order (have to pick it up in a week)..

Also i went to the crash shop and the tank is smoothed and primered, so paint goes on 2moz and ill have it on thursday or friday lol....

i think 92 degrees was supposed to be the best point, to keep the engine running around 91

Ummm to be totally honest i wouldnt have a clue!

I was just going to run it off a switch to begin with, but Chris (PREDATR) had a spare tuned memcal for the thermos lying around so we put it in mine....

Got the tank this morning!

Dont mind the pics they dont give the paint and chrome justice....

 

[stocky]

a black tank would suit the chrome straps a lot better

Hmm yeah that was one of my thoughts, but im using an Alpine White/Quicksilver/Chrome theme for the whole car so once a few more things are done (like VP Calais window surrounds and painted brake calipers and hubs), it should all fit in nicely)
