got a vl calais s2 .. im restrcied to driving turbo , is it possible to get around it? spray everything black and hide **** and remount the bonnet latch??

ive been driving my vl around sydney for years, been pulled over multiple times and they have never opened my bonnet. I think if they saw a cooler they would open it however. Your chances are good if you have no cooler and dont drive like an idiot, as for painting everything black i say dont bother, theres no hiding a big friggn turbo if a cop opens your bonnet hes gonna see it...

how much would i be looking at for a very stock setup with a t3/t4 and front mount intercooler ??? like full NA to turbo (just wanna work out a random cost to save up. + with my auto gearbox id probly need a trans cooler ect so how much much would all of that normaly cost i would be think $1000 - 2000 but i dont have a clue really

FMIC, Prob around $500-800 + Fitment ECU/Turbo/Injectors/Exhuast & Manifold/Induction/Oil & water lines If the turbo needs water prob lookin at anywere between 900-1500 depending of what turbo ur gettin + Fitment With the Auto Trans Cooler would help but in the long run she'll go if u want to run power with t3/t4, otherwise a standard T3 still works alright and ya auto will prob be more forgiving, If you wonna be safe get it built or run the headache of slipping/leaking auto!

hey guys i posted all the RB30e to ET stuff that was on that guys website that got closed down unfortunatly my pc didnt save the pics. its a whole step by step guide to the conversion http://calaisturbo.com.au/showthread.php?t=9623&page=2 its right at the bottom

just wondering what i would take into consideration to avoid any problems with running a basic setup. t3/t4 turbo brand new exhaust manifold brand new wastegate vlt ecu dump pipe xover pipes oil + water lines I will buy vlt injectors and cooler pretty soon after but would there be any problems running a setup this way for a little while month or two. I know its been done before but are there any problems to look out for??? just something cheap that i can afford at the moment...its a start thanks

anyone?

14MM BANJO BOLT IS $8.11 PLUS GST 12MM BANJO BOLT IS $7.94 PLUS GST from pirtek

i tried nissan there not available gotta try 2mrw can someone put up the link that shows all the measurements and fittings?

hay guys sould bo doing this convertion very soon on my calais my parts list is vlt computer new standard vlt injectors vlt manifold 2 1/2 inch zorst new hypergear TR43i turbo a 8psi gktech intercooler kit H/D clutch 25 spline LSD disked diff NA 5sp box vt front brakes any thing else i should be looking 4 guy?

the oil and water lines for the turbo, and maybe a gearbox because if that 5spd lasts longer than 3months then its doing good... Other than that its a good setup, but if you get a good box, and a nistune ecu and bigger injectors than you could be making ****loads of power
