i also have a GTIr that is my current project, i need to sell this car before i can do more. I also may enter another GTIr in the targa next year or the year efter, so i do now the difference between a nice nissan and a nice holden. but i liked this model holden because the GTR skyline engine can fit without major mods to the bay, but that plain kinda went out the door. I also love VL's cause they are easy to work with and i think are quite attractive with a nice body kit and paint job (like most). So hopefully you will see my name in the racing world in the next few years.

I hate to have to say it mate but Im sorry I have to agree with WazR32Gtst....

I sold my VL a year ago to buy my skyline and it had huge $$$$ spent on it.... and I really mean alot of dollars and I ended settling for a measly $6000 because the interest wasnt there ( In my opinion it was one of the nicest in Perth )

That being said though I wish you good luck in selling you VL.

well can't blame a guy for trying, funny enough i put it in the trader a while ago for $10,700 and i had the phone going nuts, plenty of people came and had a look but no one bought :D then i dropped it to $10,000 the next week plus included a new black widow alarm with backup power, central locking, remote keyless entry, another imobilizer. and i didn't get one call, what the? probly coz it was in a lower catagory, anyways hopefully ill find someone who loves it as much as i do, and the price is negotionable remember. anyways thanks fellas even though you slimed my chances a little further, no heart feelings.

cheers.

P.S. i have only seen 1 VL on the road so far that looks better, and that was in echuca. it was wicked, canary yellow and white with a full VS clubsport body kit, and it was a calais turbo, boosted! thats what red blooded aussie dreams are made of...

ture.

i paid 9,500 for a Calais Turbo (fgactory manual) running 15psi and lowered and all sorts. Went hard ass... But still at the top end of expensive.

But for NA... your about 2-3 grand to high.

      Pops when backing off throttle, rough-ish sound through rev range.

      Hence why I suggested some tests.

      Yes to both! Yes to standard ECU and tune, but exhaust is aftermarket. Unsure on brand. Actually have it sitting in at my desk haha! I have to set it up on my laptop but this is a great next step, will do. So I generally try to shift before 4.5K RPM most times. I largely don't do a lot of high-rev driving, but I will take it up to red 1-2x a week max, as I know the occasional "Italian tune-up" is good for these cars.  Oh wow, is this way better than what I'm getting. Does this mean there's a good chance I have an issue?   Thanks for all the info so far guys.

      Old Son, did you re-use the Holden ABS in the new shell or try a different module?

      Another little story of weird shit happening

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.

      Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
