Hello, New member, tho been using this site for the last couple years for facts and information. Have been on the hunt for the last 2 years looking for a tidy vl worth spending money on and genuine VL turbo parts, Now it has all finally come together its time to build my dream car. plan is to get it up and running with the turbo, wheels and suspension next, re spray whole car and then will start finding all the small bits and pieces that's missing/not working and eventually end up with quite a tidy vlct. anyone had there VL painted or can recommend a painter in the auckland area that is reasonable. http://tinypic.com/r/2urvzox/5 http://tinypic.com/r/o57ztd/5 http://tinypic.com/r/2i1i1zk/5 http://tinypic.com/r/2i95b4o/5

There are plenty of good blokes up there who will steer you in the right direction(VL Dan)good luck with the build!! Cheers Marty

I think we have met before....I remember selling you something through Trademe, something to do with VL's of course... You picked it up from my place in Forrest Hill I don't personally know of any painters, as I've never had re-paint jobs done on my cars Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Yeh Dan I think you might be the guy i got some springs off but i picked them up from Midas. Whats the Auckland VL scene like ? is there ever any arranged cruses or meet ups ?

Sorry, yes your right you got them off me at work..... There used to be some awesome VL cruises which afew guys arranged, but people were either busy or couldn't be bothered turning up Alot of guys don't actually have a car they can just hop into and drive either, they are always pulled apart in the garage....Which defeats the purpose of actually having a car I could get into any of my 3 VL's right now and head off on a cruise if one were to arise.....but I'm still waiting haha Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Oh that's a shame. It would be cool if some was to arrange one for this summer. looks like there are a few VL enthusiast around Auckland from some of the people on VL buy sell swap Facebook group.

nice collection of parts you got there! should sum up to a nice VL. on another note does anyone have drawings or dimensions for drive shaft loops to fit a VL ??

I bought two universal drive shaft loops off trade me and modified them to fit. I'm no engineer, but managed to cut em up and reshape them a little to fit - all without welding. Certifier was happy with them too. To comply they need to be a certain dimension, which the ones on trade me are. I think you can get em for about $50 each. You will need two. Here's my front loop - the one that requires the most work: The rear loop was a lot a simpler, but I don't have a pic. If you have the loop in hand, and the car jacked up, it's relatively simple to work out.

dam got the wrong injectors, anyone on here have any brown tops or E15ET injectors

If you have the loop in hand, and the car jacked up, it's relatively simple to work out. Nice work, were did you mount the rear loop? I have modified an off the shelf unit for the rear, but I am not 100% sure exactly were to mount it as cars with 2 piece drive shafts have a different requirement to cars with a 1 piece drive shaft. Here is the front unit I built..

Mate, you're just showing off with that driveshaft loop! Very tasty bit of engineering that. Will have to poke head under car to check where my rear loop is, but from memory I think the space is pretty limited so it kinda limits the options. I think if you are looking at the handbrake cable, which kinda forms a Y where the cables veer off to each axle, I think my loop sits somewhere near where the cables intersect.

Hope everyone had a good Christmas and has a good 2014..... Here's to everybody getting stuck into their projects and actually having VL's to drive in this coming year Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Cheers for that Dan! Cheers Marty

My vl turbo hubcaps I am restoring looking a lot better than they did when I bought them Just showing off my hat I got made Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Anyone ever tried or heard what these ECUs are like ? http://calaisturbo.com.au/showthread.php?t=273852 6x individual injector and coil sounds as good as a g4

you shouldnt need that for your engine. its just NA with turbo?up to 8-9 psi? what fuel you running what injectors you got and what std ecu?
