Holden Calais Turbo Automatic RB30ET Hey guys, its come time to sell my car. Ive had this VLCT for just over a year now and its been great. Had a few ups and downs like any VL turbo but for the most part has been 100% reliable. Reason for the sale is i just dont drive it enough anymore. I have a daily i drive to work 6 days a week and on my day(s) off i just dont feel like driving. Also i could simply use the money for other stuff. here are the details: Origional 87 series II Calais Turbo Origional factory RB30ET Engine with 2XX,XXX ks (meter stopped before i bought it) Origionaly was all marone but has been painted in 2 pack Black (with a bronze flake) over Silver. (around 3 yrs ago) Body is straight with a few small exceptions - small rear bumper scratch and scuff - $240 to fix - and 2 barely noticable dints in roof. **NO RUST** now to the good stuff: T4 hiflow - air research (9psi) 50mm PSR Wastegate (JPC standard) In cabin boost controller dial Front mount intercooler (AFM in piping) Dose Pipe Screamer pipe Standard ECU, bottom-end and injectors Bosch 044 fuel pump Catch Can LSD Diff (tight) Had a new CAS and plug installed last week Mild head work including: Crow Cam (Hydraulic Type Profile - part #503650 L/C 117) Ported and polished head Heavy duty valve lifter retainers Heavy duty springs *receipts for all work* Trans is a recently rebuilt: Jatco 4 speed Auto (Fully manualized) stage 3 sift kit w/ 3800 Stall - Full rebuild done my JPC in may07 - spent big on this one, reciepts included. Suspension: Super low springs at front Chopped Rear springs Adjustable penhard rod (needs new front shockers, its a little bumpy) Wheels: Polished VL Calais wheels with around 85% tread (easy to pass RWC) Interior: Grey Aero tech: Very clean, Bucket Seats, carpet, rear seat, sun visors and roof lining, pretty much everything except door trims which are grey series II calais. Autometer Boost guage Autotechnica Steering Wheel (also comes with Calais wheel for roady) JVC CD player JL 6x9 speakers 4” Pioneer speakers in front Eastside installs pager Alarm / Immobilizer including remote start, panic, turbo timer etc **Rego till July 08** Car will not come with a RWC but i have a few parts to throw in to make it a little easier to pass. When i had the turbo, wastegate, boost controller, and 044 pump installed the car made 170rwkw.. injectors and ECU are holding it back for the 200rwkw+ mark. most of the recent work has been done at JPC and i have a whole heap of reciepts inculded. **PLATES ARE NOT INCLUDED** Looking at around $12,000 ono not in any real rush to sell up, so im not taking any stupid offers. and keep negative comments to yaself *NO SWAPS* just $$$ you can PM me if you feel but id rather you call on [phone removed], leave a msg if i dont pickup im usually at work 9 - 5.30 and sometimes on weekends. Hopefully ive included enough info, if not here are some recent pics took today the car looks and speaks for itself: thanks Xavier With some VY GTS Rims: Asking Price: 12kono (note - car is also advertised elseware, so i have the right to end the sale at any point) Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
