I started this project from the ground up. Ive lost my license for a yr and have a big fine to pay. Plus I have uni commitments now and sadly cant complete this one of a kind show car. The engine in the car came out of an original turbo exec auto which was never boosted past stock boost and was purchased from an elderly man. Details are as follows: ENGINE: ORIGINAL RB30 turbo engine (NEVER SEEN MORE THAN STOCK BOOST IN ITS LIFE AND CAME FROM MY ORIGINAL AUTO VL EXEC). Head Ported, Polished + Strengthened Cam Shaft by PROFORM (same job as VL GOD) Stainless Steel exhaust manifold Custom Plenum XF throttle body Reconditioned Turbo radiator Chrome breathers and Air Pod Massive Intercooler TRANSMISSON: VL 5 speed Gear Box Brand-new EXCEEDY heavy duty clutch EXHAUST: 3 Inch exhaust and high flow cat BRAKES: VL turbo disk brakes front and Back WHEELS: VL Calais wheels BODY: 7g paint job Metallic Blue smoothed to perfection (no moulds or lines running through bumpers, smoothed engine bay, key holes and antenna) All rubbers are brand new + brand new plush pile carpet black - cost me 1g Brand new mirrors, lights all round Chrome door handles Brand new front window with VT rubber Chrome bolts used throughout the engine bay Wiring hidden in guards Chrome bonnet lock Dash and center console painted heritage cream Shell is an exec but has been converted to Calais with the POP UP lights - this includes the motor Countless hours and almost 18grand has been poured into this car, this doesn't include the cost of the VL turbo exec that I bought from an elderly owner from which the engine and running gear came from. To get the car running, it only needs intercooler piping and battery relocation. Asking for 15grand negotiable. serious buyers only thankyou my mobile number is [phone removed] PICS are on car sales: http://www.carsales.com.au/used-cars/private/HOLDEN/COMMODORE/details.aspx?__Ntk=CarAll&__D=vl&Cr=0&State=New%20 South%20Wales&R=5366950&state_id=80&keywords=vl&Pr iceMin=15000&__N=80+393+410+834+285+257&silo=1003& distance=25&__Ns=pCar_PrivateSpecialFlag_Int32|1|| pCar_ImageCount_Int32|1||pCar_LastModifiedDate_Dat eTime|1&__Ntt=vl&trecs=2&__Nne=20&__Ntx=mode+match allpartial&PriceMax=15000&__sid=11841FC3F9A0&seot= 0&__Dx=mode+matchany inspections welcome

Hey mate beautiful car, I was just interested as to how you managed to get the same cam profile as VL GOD... Also does it have aftermarket or stock computer?
