There's a HZ Holden ute running around near Sydney with a VL turbo engine, aftermarket intercooler and 5 speed box! They handled quite well so it would be interesting to drive What a sleeper! Wants $9700 for it, bit steep.

there was one in WA as well, I think it was from sureflow exhausts from memory. yellow one tonner with VLT running gear. did a mean ass burnout one night at the motorplex, huge front mount too! cheerz morepsi

There plenty of cars round now with vlt motors in them. Espically toranas, there getting really comon.

I like seeing engine conversions but say you went to build up a drag car say a Gemini with a modified RB30et and only run a 12 then you will look like a bit of a ****head when the standard VL shells can run 11's to 10's easy without haveing to be lightened, even the lightened shells are running 9's and Vas's first into the 8's I had a conversion project idea a while back by useing an early model Ford Capri fitted with an RB30et for drags and burnouts but the time, labour and money outweigh this idea far better to keep the engine in a VL Shell and still be able to have fun in it. I've seen RB30's fitted into LC,J and LH,X Toranas, Mazda1300, TE Gemini, FC, HR, HQ Holdens, VC,VH Commodores and a Nissan Silvia. 8)

I've seen an rb30et in a toyota corolla.. mean burnouts

My mate was gunna do that to his HJ ute Too much ****ing around in a heavy old car. Then again, he could have a brain snap and do it :roll:

I remember my neighbour had an old holden ute with a VL Turbo enigne when i was a tacker. I know he built it from scratch. Next time i see hime ill find out the details...... might be the same one??
