Yes, VY FE2 will fit a VT fine.
Basically you need springs, dampers, and stab. bars for full FE2 afaik, although the front stab bar is a bit painful to change, so I didn't bother changing it on mine.

FE2 springs from a holden dealer aren't overly expensive, so it may be worth buying new (in the vacinity of $150 from memory). I've seen some wreckers selling GM 'surplus' stock, including FE2 dampers front and rear for under $100 from memory. Otherwise you can often find them on ebay, although its hard to gauge how much wear they have copped.

Dunno if that helps.
Liam.

I bought FE2 springs from my local holden dealer last year, cost me $165 (just checked my receipt) for the whole set. I got a small trade discount, but I doubt it would have been much. Ring your local dealer and ask for a price maybe... 92048199 FR and 92048210 RR I think, or just ask for FE2 springs to suit VT.
