I was driving home today and after going around a corner and then getting up to 100K’s my Vs stalled like, kind of like it had run out of fuel. I pulled over and restarted the car after pulling the airbox lid off (wouldnt start otherwise) and it was fine until it did it again 2 more times. I had under 1/4 of a tank so I was wondering if this issue…[Read more]

Thanks, I dont mind the covers but I wish they fitted better, I was going to get some altezza headlights and probably still will when I respray this.
Yeah I had heard that about the amp but it seems to be fine, I spaced it out slightly so the underside wasn’t touching. Thanks mate, always liked your VR

Air con is now gassed up and working. Also put a sub and amp in, have mounted the amp on under the parcel shelf in the boot and the sub is just tucked at the back, still need to secure it properly tho.

Doesn’t scrub up too bad for a car which is covered in stone chips and hasn’t been polished in 3 years..

Started it this morning and it smelt a bit like fuel after so it probably is a leaking injector? A better battery seems to also have helped.

Thanks, doesn’t use any coolant and the intake gaskets were done just before I got the car so I think those would be fine, might try and swap the fuel rail over and see if that fixes the problem

I’m having a bit of trouble with my Calais at the moment with cold starts in the morning and in the afternoon when I finish work.
Basically it just keeps cranking over and wont actually start until I turn it off and on again, and when it eventually does start it runs a bit crappy for a few seconds and then runs fine. Drives fine otherwise other…[Read more] -

Gave the car a wash and used the snow foam thing on it which I got for Christmas. Also finally put the a/c pully and belt on so I can go get the air con gassed up.

Went on cruise for charity a couple of weeks ago, wasn’t a bad day just the location of the start point was a bit crap. Also noticed the roof lining has now started falling down so that needs to be fixed soon

Got some chrome inner and polished outer handles for this. I also repainted the outer surrounds as the originals were looking very average.
While I had the doors apart I also replaced the foam seals on the vents

The one in my daily still seems to be fine, hasnt gone yellow and has been in there for a while now. I dont think mine have the yellow mark but can have a look in the morning. Only thing is id use the original cap as the one that comes with it keeps popping off because it doesnt clip down like the original ones

drove to victor harbour a few weeks ago and cruised around up there with some friends, took a pic on the drive home, was a good day. Back looks high because the front was parked in a low spot…
