Haven't had time to update this, I'll post up all the inbetween bits on my website at some point - check the below link for updates! https://www.facebook.com/ChequeredTuning/posts/1312331755477419

Ok slight update, my car made it onto MCM's page haha https://www.facebook.com/mightycarmods/photos/a.10150151027040554.407041.146030415553/10157460626950554/

dem seats hnnnng

Boy does this need an update... but I don't have the time. Many things have happened, engine is back on the car - it'll be back better than ever soon enough :)

Heads were MLS finished last time, just a clean should be all that's needed this time.

HAHA, nope. Shiny clean before it all goes back together. Keen to drive something with actual torque again, the subi is great but nothing beats v8 torque. Subi parts are piss easy, they're everywhere - for the liberty's at least.

New fitting sorted and welded onto sump, passes leak test :thumbsup: VALVE TRAIN ORGANISER Girdle to improve the silly one bolt factory design Cleaned heads and block New lifters Almost ready for heads to go back on. New beanie :)

Glad you went and got the proper tool to get the spigot out, it's the only way to do it.

Really? fair enough then. I thought the motor they used would've been physically bigger than an LS, but maybe in the right areas. The AWD is really awesome though, in the video turbo yoda said they didn't use the LS because of the displacement and that they could get away with lower displacement...

Absolutely frothed hard over that stagea, would love to own one one day. But, it should've been LS, using that japanese v8 was just a lot of work for not much gain - still awesome though.

Sure have, epic car. Super gramps runs the bigger EZ36 (3.6L) out of a tribecca. The liberty's came out with flat 6 cylinder options as EZ30's (3L) I've driven one of those and they're really impressive, would love to turbo one at some stage. Not massive power but plenty enough to have a lot of fun.

It's a smaller car than the commodore (good), but I haven't had any issues with space. I've had an ecotec and an engine crane in the back (seats down) before so I'd say that's plenty of room.

Checking in to say this is the best car I've ever owned, reliable, fun to drive, comfortable, good on fuel and looks great. Loves it :thumbsup:

Bit of an update, last few weeks I've dropped the motor out, installed the whiteline front sway bar and started the cam install. Also started prepping the bigger brakes for paint Found this chunk of alloy sitting near the lifter bucket of...
