Vs 5lt loom has an earth and the back and at the front of the passenger side head added the braded wire earth from the alternator mount to behind the air box and added a second from there to the ignition module just for good measure wire wheeled all the earth points to bright shiny metal...

I have a vt 5lt and 4l60 in my vr ute running on a vs 5lt loom and ecu vs s2 Statesman dash and body loom climate control ect It's got 2 intermittent issues Won't idle or will idle high anywhere from 1000 to 2500 rpm and will hunt up and down at idle and while driving at set speed Had an...

Possibly but they do make different extension housings to suit shifter positions like ford six cylinder extention housing is used when fitting a 5lt T5 combo into a Torana as the shifter position is further forwards on the extention housing

Has any one got a VN thru vs V8 T5 out of the car that can get 2 measurements for me as I need a reasonable accurate shifter position Bellhousing face to center of the shifter And center line of the output shaft to the top of the shifter plate

I'm asking if the vs V8 Cruze control unit will work in the vq not the switches The vq one I have is full of corrosion and some how Ive managed to accumulate 3 vr vs V8 ones has the same plug as vq one doesn't mean it will work

Yeah I know the speed signal is different VN VP to vr vs then getrag is is its own thing In theory the cc unit doesn't actually know the speed it just pulse input you set it at X number of pulses per second min being 40kmph All the cc unit is doing is maintaining what X pulses per second you...

I have had a scratch around on here but haven't found anything remotely close Finally getting around to finish off the caprice dug out the cruise control unit and the case has gone all white and crusty with corrosion and inside is almost a solid lump of corrosion I could clean it out but I have...

We'll if that's the case then chances are it won't work with out a metric **** load of rooting around so I'm then stuck with changing the dash body loom to what will work or cutting it down to a more or less stand alone engine loom with the OBD2 port and an after market obd2 dash cluster happy...

We'll if that's the case then chances are it won't work with out a metric **** load of rooting around so I'm then stuck with changing the dash body loom to what will work or cutting it down to a more or less stand alone engine loom with the OBD2 port and an after market obd2 dash cluster happy...

Oh yeah it would be very nice But hey there is a good starting point If the body to engine loom pin outs are the same the next question is the can bus signal the same for VT s1 and wh S1 (don't think it's called can bus in VT) If I recall the vx pcm and can bus signal ect is completely...

Ah ok I would have thought the body loom to engine loom would be the same plugs and pin outs wouldn't make sense to have different body looms to suit each engine have 3 different ones in wh Stato to caprice definitely way more crap in a caprice

We'll I'd be using the standard VT 4l60e so should be the same Speedo signal as a V6 4l60e Or LS1 4l60e can't see them changing the signal for the same trans

I doubt it would need to be re pinned I'd think that a VT V6 engine loom and wh V6 loom would have the same pin out for the 3 plugs on the driver's side behind the brake booster so in theory the vt 5lt should be the same but not necessarily

It would just be nice to have the Speedo and tacho working on the standard wh cluster and all the lights switches power windows wipers ect working as well My intention is a skid car wh statos are cheap once the LS1 and trans have been harvested but just cause it's a skid car or "bush basher"...

Yeah I could use the Berlina loom I already have id say the rear doors speakers tail lights ect could just be cut and shut to suit and that's only if the plugs don't match up Did a vs stato dash conversion on my vn many years ago wasn't overly hard to work out what goes to what

There is on half solid answer at best and a pile of verbal Justin Bieber about unrelated things As for don't be a dick just returning the favour

I'm sorry I thought being a smart ass was the correct response around here

Answered not really I never asked if it could be registered or not and true most people wouldn't put an older V8 into a newer body doesn't mean some one hasn't or doesn't have an answer to the question can you link a VT S1 loom and ecu to a wh S1 statesman I'm not pissed I just thought being...

Yeah with enough crash bash and money just about anything Is possible figured some one may know or has used an LS loom into a VT S1 and made the BCM and ecu talk figure if it works one way should work the other way

Big shout out to all those who have responded And an even bigger shout out to those who's dyslexia got in the way and didn't comprehend the original post and just assumed i had any intention to attempt to get it registered or even engineered and just got on with posting unrelated replies to the...

I never said I had any intention to register it However S2 was released 1/6/99 so there is likely some VT S1 5lts built after that and the wh was released in June of 99 and there would be pre release production so in theory it should be possible to register a 99 wh stato with a 5lt Also if...

Hi every body I've been seeing a lot of wh statesmans and caprices Rolling shells going cheap minus motor and box in pretty decent condition on market place gum tree ect and I have the complete running gear from a VT 5lt auto Berlina sedan that had climate control and 3 window cluster I have...

Vn S1 no vn S2 VP ECT all the same Can make a patch loom or cut and **** the plugs to make vn S1 work with S2 onwards

I have a vt 5lt in a vq statesman The cast iron headder part numbers are the same for the passangers side but the drivers is different vt seems to hang wider off the block due to the wider engine bay and steering rack size shape location vs the vq being a tighter fit to the block to squeeze...

https://www.enginebuildermag.com/2008/03/rebuilding-the-3-8l-buick-engine/ Have a read of this hopefully one of the block part numbers correlates to the s1 or s2 and from there maybe find a parts catalogue for them

Maybe try using the block part number cast into the side 920xxxxxxxxx as the blocks where all cast in the US and from my understanding the s1 engines where assembled in the US so they would use US parts and part numbers so in theory some one some where may have a parts list used on the s1...

Yeah good luck with that as i have found many of the part numbers are holden only or there isnt a cross reference guide jad a hell of a time trying to work out an oil filter for a vr ute a mate has state side the americans dont use the z154 reference like we do turns out k and n use the same...

Check fuses obviously then theres a thick purple and black i think wires that go to the heater fan its self up under the passangers side habe to remove the cover under the glove box if its still there nearly ever one ive seen has been black burnt and chared give them a clean If the fan works...

From some reading i was doing the other day on an american site and there sumps are interchangeable 86 88 ln3 or series 1 as we know it thu to 2004 vy ecotech but pick up changes from a gasket to an o ring in the l27 series 2 not sure if the pick ups will work That sump doesnt look that bad...

Vp irs non calais statesman ss is kinda rare i remeber reading somewhere that there was only 40 something irs executives built and ive personally seen 2 one at u pull it gillman a few years back and a mate had one his parents brought near new In a nut shell its a calais body minus the spats and...

Better off going to a wreckers and buying a complete unit and swapping it over be about the same by the time you root around fixing that one pretty straight forwards to change just need the passangers seat and seat belt out to lift the carpet giving you access to the 2 13mm bolt heads they are...

As you Can see the slime and grime behind my one and that build up if from when it was resprayed don't know if you are familiar with the mushroom heads that hold on the chrome trims of the kingswoods and toranas these use the same ones I plan to take my mouldings back off and have a few bits...

Vq rear glass is all glued in And the rubber and chrome are seperate to the glass so you can take them off and if you do break any clips there is plenty of room to glue it back on with poly urathane more than likely there will be rust holes behind the rubbers which is what letting the water in...

Keep us posted about how and what you use to redo the wood with I need to do mine at some stage before I put it back on but it's a long way down on the to do list

Yeah it's urathane behind it Got to be super careful not to bite into the wood or the dash defiantly want a 2nd person for the long bit Behind the wood it's self are pockets machined into it the wood for the urathane to sit in and cause of that holdens went a bit nuts on the glue on the 2 sets...

Yeah but it ain't cheap you want to find progressive spring rate fe2 ride hight springs that's what I have in my vp wagon and it's beautiful unless you hit a big bump then the skinny part of the coil compresses and the thicker part takes over but I avoid craters where possible

Press and hold for a few seconds and it should latch the relay and go down the rest of the way if not the latching circuit isn't working

Are the vn v6 s1 auto starter motors 9 tooth or 10 tooth

The shaft goes thru the fire wall where the clutch cable would normally go thru if it was manual different pedal box with a support bushing and from there the linkage goes across the fire wall to the passangers side to a pivot point on the fire wall and then down to the shaft of the trans with...

I found the thread from gus the snail sounds like he had problems with the park switch more than anything else but for all intensive purposes it sounds like it all fitted and cleared and worked so I might have a crack at it soon when I've got the time to do it
