im not sure if im in the right thread. i sent off a email to rodshop. with what i want. i wanna do a v6 t5 into a gemini. with brake upgrade and chassis strengthern will the battery need to be relocated to the boot? will the standard diff would the v6? if not how hard is it to get a engineers certificate for a vlt diff? do you even need one for a diff? is that all i need for a engineers certificate? if not can anyone tell me what esle i need. and does anyone have any idea how much he will charger for labour for a job like this? ill have a gemini without motor and box ready for him to drop in. and ill have a v6 motor and t5 gear box with tailshaft and loom.? does anyone know what esle i need like computer what computer would i need just a vn one? i know this is a isnt props the right forum but i need bit of help any help could be good, and if im in the wrong part let me know where to post dont be a **** about. thanks heaps to anyone that can help.

im doing this conversion now, get ur kit from v6 conversions, cheaper, complete and fits correctly, battery in the boot is optional, brake upgrade is a must for the front u can get the kits on ebay cheap enough and chassis strenthen depends on how much rust u got in urs, like mine i got none so all is well, leave standard diff there strong enough with a standard auto tail shaft....im keeping mine auto and i bought a smashed v6 gem and pulled everything out and putting it in mine!

yeah cheers i looked thou all the number its a big price, for the conv from rod shop bigger brakes, and everyhting custom loom 8000 grand all up,, thats ***n heaps. but if i do everything myself, it will cost that well. v6 kit is 500 with engine mounts, 500 for the loom, u need a chassis strengther for engineers dont you? thats wat i was told by one. and brake upgrade. there pretty cheap on ebay. speedo cables as well is bout 80 plus sender which is 200 so pretty much 1820 and its ready for engineers cert. once your done yours if i give you some money would you give me a hand to do mine. pm if your keen. thanks heaps and with your tailshaft where are you getting it cut or is it already done coz you need to take off 100mm

didn't think you could get this conversion engineered anymore . From what i can remember 2.7 litres is the biggest N/A motor you can legally fit

*** wat bitch of a job so you cant even get this engineered anymore, i only know one guy in vic that would do it, but i dunno if he does anymore that was like 2 years back

a mate has a wagon for sale, v6, t5, commodore diff, locker.

im building one atm and half way thru engineers, only guy in vic that does it. mine 1983 model. all factory everything works all from factory and just smoothed the bay abit an painted it white! vt front brake upgrade. with 5 stud vs rear brake upgrade with 28 spline axels with 5 stud gemini reco booster. with xb brand new master pedal box moved over 35mm tunnel cut out to fit manual gearbox.! fuel lines and stuff moved over a lil for tailshaft its going into the auto elects next weeks to get finished. and then all i need to do is change tanny mount! and finish the exhuast over the diff. and give the battery box a breather hose. and it will be engineered. ill keep ya upto date ---------- Post added 14-02-13 at 10:04 ---------- just having a problem finding someone to do my speedo cable conversion! if anyone knows please let me know!! cheers
