Sounds good dude.Reasonably quiet too!

6l80e fits..issue is cross brace in tunnel hits auto so it needs to be cut/trimmed to clear then strength reinforced back in.

Several cars with 4l80e yet only seen pics of a  vk with 6l80e

Before pandemic was looking at ls3 or 6l/6l80e for vp ute…must admit had been waiting ages for vz 6l/4l65 for ages to pop up.

Still want to do ls…[Read more]

Still want to do ls conversion but content with 304/4l60e conversion in ute for now.

Nice work can see shit-tonne of hours put into that bay.

Petersen catchcan?

Yeah that looks weird compared to stocker…showtime customs & fabrication on fb  & website sold adjustable tierods.

Vaguely remember them being advertised or maybe they sell off another model car for their angle kits

A few setbacks,such is life…plan is to get tubbed sle back on road next year.

If can get the time + money want to send motor off to TK

Looks clean as hell dude

Did your harness come with diagram or instructions which is tacho wire?

Monster tacho is easy just takes bit of time to do if you want to mount it all up all nice & neat then wiring…they usually end up on top of steering column or pillar with shiftlight.

green = tacho wire

black = earth

red = accessories

white = lights

Yeah I used the jaycar gps speedo on the sle…plug into lighter & suction cup gauge to windscreen.

You got to remember to turn it off otherwise it will stay on & after few days fubar’d  if not been used or charged up…

Most of the workmates use phone apps for their 4wd’s with oversized tyres that put speedo out.

*Put in as much heat…[Read more]

Got f/glass plenum cover on vp ute….twice as much junk gets in there than factory plastic item.

You’re getting there dude!!!

1 3/4 extractors for cam/heads ls3 will be fine but reckon you’ll need twin 3″ with mufflers then across top of diff yoke section into a 2 in 1 out rear muffler…will be tad on loud side.

Could try jamming mufflers full of steel wool & flat metal flange gasket with holes drilled in them although with cone things posted above it will run…[Read more]

Sounds crispy!!!!

185i backwards would really mess with their heads…

Yeah Blake’s nutso vn is up & running…not sure if it’s driving yet still had a few things to do it but that was a few months ago.

He’d just done his supercar style exhaust when last heard from him.

It’s stupidly loud & lowwwwwwwwww

Looks very neat dude…turning out nicely.

Looks same as mine 4 ballstuds threaded in with 2 rear wagon struts…might be fitted upside down,bonnet only closes with them one way iirc

Been ages since last done it from memory used 4 ball studs with rear wagon struts…all bolted straight up.

Vaguely remember trying vp/s guard bracket thing which touched inside bonnet.

Nice progress & rear wheel sit nicely inside wheel arch.

Can go single bf fan or cheap/neat vs v6 later version are slimmer…they work quite well & take up least amount of room,.
