What cam are you putting in? List the duration at .50* and the lift and LSA/ Centreline. I certainly would say don't put the cam in until you have done the 3.9 or 3.7 diff gears at the least with a 4000rpm + stall. Would be heaps of fun then. Jason.

was this car originally from Mandurah? I used to see one that looked exactly like the old pics driving around for a while. Great conversion & good work. Good to see someone go and do the work on their car instead of posting dreams.

Good work man! I think it's fair to say that these conversions are pretty appealing to most of us. Looks schmick too but yeah would like to see a more conventional VK berlina or VL calais rear instead of the color coding. Love the wheels and color though!

LE grille, VK Berlina tail lights and garnish, Calais side skirts in flat black... would improve the look a lot
