Stacey just bought this RB30 powered machine.

http://www.carsales.com.au/all-cars/privat...=vl&trecs=2

Its in unbelieveable condition and although it looks the goods in the photo's its even better in real life.

She squeezed the seller over the price and picked it up for considerably less than what they were asking.

I have 4 complete long engines in the shed including a factory turbo item. Im planning on building an exchange engine for it running a GT35R, external gate, intercooler, exhaust and controlled by a Vi-PEC plug in.

Will post up some build details when it commences.

So are you building a forklift now?

Maranello Red? ferrari inspirated straight from the factory

i had a vl turbo & ran a bmw m3 (2004 model) from stand still up to 200km & it was dead equal, mine was stock apart from an intercooler & 15psi.

god it was funny though with his paddle shift changing gears frantically whilst im in my auto looking at him in amazement. vl's are very light & quick, just tell stace to watch those brakes (especially after boost as the booster is grossly undersized) & the handling is very scary at high speeds (i almost lost it doing over 100km in a sweeper)

Blaming Stacey for the hidden inner bogan aye Paulie...Thats low man. :(

lol...the fella asked her if it was for her or me. hehe.

Im unsure why you think the bogan in me is actually hidden...i drink Jack, love cars and am a fan of boobs. Bogan through and through id say...lol

Straight older cars are the shiz though.

    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise    
    • My Fuga Hybrid is JDM, 2014 model but very similar to the V37 from the looks of things..same platform just physically larger and very comfortab;e
    • Was that Australia Delivered Duncan? Does it have siren etc?   I used to have remote start on an old 32 two decades ago, it was a cool feature. I used to wake up early in winter for work. Start it and by the time i was out the door a few minutes later the engine was warmed up and the heaters had the car toasty. It was great.    I don’t mine the ambience lighting.  I drive a western star and it has footwell lights and ambient lighting and it’s great! From the pics of seen of them installed in a skyline I think it’s a nice touch
