Lol wel there's no point flogging the goat
The main reason is its not my car!
I have a 2002 HSV Senator big cammed supercharged Ls1 that's my fast car it made 487rwkw and cost just over $35,000 to build but it cost more than just money! I'm still lucky (I think) to have my partner and the deal was if I could do what I wanted she could have a cool car as well!
She loves VL's so I bought a Calais rolling shell, smoothed the bay ANC painted it Lexus matador red over silver Calais trim!
The RB30 was flogged to the shithouse and ugly as f**k!
I brought a 25 without a turbo for a few hundred
And the gearbox was swapped for a fair amount of beer lol!
After putting the engine in the bay it looked boring! I looked through my mags to see why my bay looked shit compared and we came to the conclusion it was missing the oversized snail they all seemed to have!
So here I am!
If it was my car i would have tore down the 25 put the fancy shit in so I can run a GT35/40 on 30psi and do power skids for 500m down the strait of qld raceway BUT.......
It's not my car and I'm under strict instructions to make it look fast but the same no faster than her SS lol
I told her I'd set up something that she could grow with and fingers crossed 2 years time I hope she's up the road with 2 trails of smoke behinds her but I very much doubt that lol
Ill start it it slow and over a few years wind up the boost until it goes pop
Then back to the drawing board

Simon
