Your car is a Holden Calais Sedan
From the factory it was equipped with the Non-Turbo Nissan RB30E producing 114kw at the flywheel.
It was produced in 1987 at the Adelaide plant with a serial number of 46504
YET....it has an A8 engine registered and 1 silver tag...its ****ed up lol
Make sure the tag matchs the strut.
And Holden did not stuff up tags,They had to have too many checks on them to match the production broadcast sheet as they went down the line.
Question,How may have there production sheet for their car?Adelaide plant almost every sheet was placed in the car.Found ours on the strip down.

yeah the prick almost ran me over one day while he was drifting in town, I was crossing the street to get to my car. Not very impressed and it also gives us a bad rep. I also recall seeing it in the panelbeaters from time to time.

All wagons came from the same plant (Adelaide)and there was a certain bloke who placed all the sheets under the back capets,Between the front and rear seats.
It is certainly nice to have them.

Can do it online Mike, just did my own last week (again lol), need your plate, drivers license number, and if you owe any rego still - a credit card (don't need to give credit card details if you don't owe them anything).

cheers Sam I'll check it out although the card has had a wee knock lately lol Ebay and Feild days
i'm guessing there is no way to get reprints of these ?
