G'day fellas, just looking for expressions of interest in My beloved black VL Calais turbo. I don't really want to sell, but can't really afford it at the moment, so if someone has a genuine decent offer I will consider!
So it's a factory tuxedo black Calais with leather that has been converted to turbo. The engine consists a fully reconditioned head with a Waggot stage II cam and reconditioned lifters (around 15,000kms old). It has s2 N/A bottom end underneath it and a multi layered steel head gasket.
The fuel system copped a new intank pump, new fuel filter and reconditioned injectors around 15,000kms ago and I just installed a Bosch motorsport 044 external fuel pump with speed-flow inlet and outlet fittings and a polished aluminium surge tank in the boot. So fuel supply is good for up to 12psi.
Turbo is a T3 Hiflo, with a JD Customs no holes intercooler kit. It is also fitted with 10mm Top-Gun leads (also around 15,000kms old) and a full 3" exhaust from turbo back with 1 muffler.
The trans was built by MV Automatics and is around 12,000 kms old. It is their 'Stage II performance package'. It is an MS1 Jatco 4 speed, fully rebuilt to higher specs and is good for 250 - 300 rwkW with a deeper pan, fluid cooler, 2800rpm stall and a B&M Pro ratchet shifter, mounted below the standard console.
The rear end is lowered on Lovells springs and is fitted with a 28 spline LSD. Up front it has standard springs with short stroke shock absorbers, so it does ride a little lower.
As for brakes, it has a VT twin piston brake upgrade, but is stilled fitted with the 15/16" master cylinder, N/A booster and standard disk brake rear. I do have a dual diaphragm booster, a brand new 1" master cylinder and a fresh bottle of brake fluid to go go with it.
Interior is fitted with mint S2 door trims and glove box lid, custom leather wrapped center console lid, black momo corse steering wheel and boss kit, Pioneer CD player with remote control and Pioneer 6" 2-way speakers mounted in vinyl covered pods in the parcel shelf.
I also have a variety of things I have collected, but haven't yet fitted to the vehicle. They consist of the following:
- S2 N/A bottom end, freshly cleaned, honed and fitted with new rings and bearings
- MSD 6AL ignition control unit
- MSD SS Blaster coil
- XF T/B modded to suit VL TPS & adapter plate
- Z32 AFM
- Mint P/S rack, pump, high pressure hose and custom polished aluminium reservior with speed flow fittings
