whats wrong with factory vlt stuff??? **** putting ford bits in your vl!!!

Yeah I wouldn't do it anything but the opposition car parts, Imagine this "Hey bro is that factory with the AU fans" lol

is there actually a problem with the factory vl cooling system/fans??

Apart from the radiator being to low causing the head to crack when not bleed properly it's not to bad

yea i've that since i was a kid bout the head cracking thing. but other than that seems to work fine ya reckon. as long as the fan goes/system and keeps the temp where it should be all good then

yes they are ,thank you hahaha

^^^^ unless you own one youll never know its a cult thing.....you either like them or you dont...i think yellow VL BT1 are better looking than calais....everyone is different......you have a royale....nothing special about them.....???? I have a genuine VLT......a rareity in NZ so there stick that in ya pipe and smoke it lol and to top it off....my car will be worth a **** load more than a royale (half a calais) ever will....there....you ate all that in a bag of patato chips ....uuu huh lol PS...no hard feelings LOL Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

As for the fuel breather hoses - check the top left diagram on the first pic - it shows the setup without the charcoal canister. Bit of a joke anyway, unless the hoses have been replaced at some point, they will be missing on most VLs. Gotta love that fuel smell every time you fill up!

i have no breather hoses left. i have never seen a vl with intact fuel breather holes

I have a genuine VLT......a rareity in NZ so there stick that in ya pipe and smoke it lol i think i hit a raw nerve. i wasnt trying to be offensive or insulting to owners of bt1s, just interested as to what the attraction was. the reason i asked was due to somebody selling a 5.0 bt1 on trade me. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Mo...-203580223.htm (http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Cars/Holden/auction-203580223.htm) but it appears "someone" has already made enquiries.

if i had spare money atm id buy that one to.....and yes it was me asking the trademe question Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Haha, they are kinda cool, but I don't ever see any other old ex cop Commodores ever having the same following. I guess it's something to do with the snail... I would like to see one with full cop livery, that would be choice. It seems to be more of an Aussie thing tho, they go nuts over them. Just like venetians - now those I don't understand! Only look right at bowling clubs!

I'd have venetians anyday but they way over priced

Ehhhhhhh Venetians are like Red Calais Interior... They definately grow on you once they are fitted in the car Slows down the ole Milk Bottle abit though, bloody heavy things Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I got venetians in my house and there nice. But I wouldn't put them in a car... that'd be like laying cork tiles in your car Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
