    Is the stuffed lift pump a Walbro by any chance? Never had any luck with them, several of my mates have had them fail too. Now I stick to Bosch, Aeromotive and Magnafuel.

    I had the brake vacuum reservoir in my VN and it fixed my issues. Would require lots of pedal idling up to red lights prior but after it was sweet even at idle. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

    No of course I don't need more power, 400rwkw is plenty. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

    Sam's VN Lexxxcen LS1 T56

    I've got my 17" simmons up for sale. I was gonna strip and rebuild them with the centers done in black but they're currently a red that would just about match the paint on the new car perfectly. Pm me if you're keen Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

    No way this thing weighs 1500kg. 1370kg is like manual VN 5.0L weight as listed by Holden who always underrate their weights. I'd say it would be close to 1700kg. That and the fact you won't get traction without quite a bit of suspension tweaks and trial and error I would say high 10's would be...

    You'll be fine until you fit drag tyres to it. Then you'll probably want to do more racing anyway and a new box will almost be a certainty then. No reason they can't last on the street though, traction will be the defining factor. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

    koni shocks help...

    Not sure which the part numbers are for but the yellows are adjustable for compression via a little knob on top. The reds you have to remove the shock at one end and turn the body to adjust, hence the yellows are dearer. They're also valved differently. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

    Don't know which tyres to get.

    I cannot believe people actually rate the factory bridgestones as a track tyre lol. Have any of you actually ever run R compound tyres before? How can you judge performance tyres when you have only tested 2 types? I've had Dunlop SP's, Khumo Ku36's and normal Ecsta, Toyo Trampio's and R1R's...

    What kind of rpm will you rev this too? Should be a torque monster, needs peanut heads though... :P Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

    Don't know which tyres to get.

    Depends on what you want for a tyre. I favor dry grip over all but you won't get 80k km out of a set of Hankook Ventus RS3's like I would suggest. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

    I modded my own struts for the Koni yellow inserts. It's really not hard at all. Your monroe struts should be fine to modify. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk
