I just wanted to start a thread where all the north Queenlanders could describe their cars and write down what sort of mods they have done. This can help put a car to a name so we can disregard posts from people who drive around in their mates mum's mazda 121. I drive a white over silver berlina with a calias front, 5 spoke mags and fullBOOST.com sticker. Only had this car for a few months so mods are limited to KEAS stage 3 shift kit and oil cooler, 3" exhuast dump to tip, K&N pod and boosted to 10 psi. I will soon be installing an intercooler and boosting till auto dies or detonation which ever comes first. The auto will then be receiving some of KEAS finest internals. Perhaps some smaller diff gears like 3.7's as the 3.89s in my last VL were a bit too short. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

tim i have a set of 3.7.1 ratio gears and lsd sitting here doing nothing if your interested

My last car was a project of mine to see what sort of times I could get out of a VL turbo on a budget, doing all the work myself. The $2000 beast was a na conversion with 9:1 compression. The exhaust was sold to a dude from here. Shift kit and oil cooler were installed. 3.89 diff gears were put in and the spider gears were welded up (i am dodgey). The turbo compressor cover received some porting and polishing. The wastegate hole was opened up on the otherwise standard T3. I modified the standard dump with a screamer pipe which finished at the 3 bolt flange. This was the extent of my exhaust as it was a strip only car. Boost cranked to a 8 psi. Interior was decked out with gauges and a pro ratchet shifter. This ran a 13.8 @ 108 mph fish tailing for the first 60ft and chirping 3rd. I then installed a fully tricked up auto and 3500 stally but sold the car before I raced it. Test drives were tyre fryers.

Ford Blueprint, unflared LX Torana Hatch. Recognised by Drop tank, Hotwires, and a big ***** off front mount. Its parked up at the moment but will hit the streets soon. For more info and pics go here: http://www.calaisturbo.com.au/showthread.php?t=32040 Still disregard any posts by me :-) Dean

VK rb30e. Port and polished head, XF tb, chip, cam, extractors, 2.5" zorst, cai, and a roooted gearbox. I need higher diff gears. got 3.45 at the moment, and my gears just last way to long. Planing on getting a rb25det head setup soon hopefully. Problem is i will have to get all the stuff like better gearbox, diff, brakes as well.

MickNQ: You wouldn't be interested in making the drive up to townsville for our drag/drink/burnout/cruise weekend eh???

I was in townsville acouple of weeks ago and there was a lack of talant OH we are talking about cars. There was some model search on at mad cow i think.

Sunday lunchtime, meeting up for a cruise. Should be a good weekeend if your interested. Tell your friends to bring their vlts aswell :-) Dean

hmm, maybe! it's the same night when the mackay test n' tune is on. i would tell my mates if there were any other vlt's around but i think i'm the only one! would be good to head up to Townsville for the weekend, lived there for a while before moving here.
