It's 11 to 1 compression. I'll have to double check what cam is in it. I'm just a bit worried about messing with the computer myself as I've never done anything like that. I was thinking of having ace preformance do a custom memcal. Or have him convert it to nvram and tune it?

Hey guys and gal's, Nearly finished building my vs calais engine. 355 stroker, mild ported heads, mild cam, come twin throttle body intake and full exhaust. I'm lookingat getting it tuned and am wanting to retain the factory computer if at all possible. Does anyone know some good tuners in the...

Hey everyone, I'm currently working on a vs calais and am trying to put in an original headunit. Eurovox mcc8491v. I have the headunit but I'm looking for an original 14 pin plug to suit the headunit. Some previous owner has cut the original plug and put in an aftermarket headunit. Can...

Hi guys, Just wondering if anyone is able to help me out as to what size these brake line fittings are? I'm redoing all the brake lines and can't work out what these are. I've got the top one, m10x1.0 I'm thinking the bottom is m12

Yep got a bolt shop in Warwick that hooked me up with all new hardware for the suspension front to back.

Hey guys, Does anyone have any idea where to get new diff carrier bolts and rear shock bolts from for a vs Calais. IRS. One of the bolts got a bit of damage on the threads when I was removing the diff. And I've heard it's not a great idea to reuse them?

Ok thanks for that. I'll see if I can find some the right size somewhere or might just head to the wreckers. Also does anyone have any idea where to get new diff carrier bolts and rear shock bolts from?

Ah bummer, I've found ones for a vt, would they fit or are they a different size?

Hey guys and gals, I'm doing some suspension work on a vs Calais and am replacing all the brake rotors and pads. When I took the rear discs off the hand brake components were all pretty rusty. I took the shoes off and dissembled it to clean and rebuild it. The springs on the bottom of the shoes...

Is there any differences between the standard ac and climate control with the sensors on the dryer or anything?

Doesn't it have a thermo fan on the condenser aswell as the clutch fan?

Thanks guys that's really helpful. Is the fan a 4 pin connector?

Yeah I'll probably just end up getting a custom one made. I'm just not sure if there's meant to be a pressure sensor anywhere on the dryer or condenser like on the v6. Or if it's meant to have a thermo fan on it

I've been to the 2 local wreckers and neither of them have anything for the V8s. I might have to look round Brisbane or Toowoomba and see what I can find. I've got the new condenser, dryer and compressor. Just can't seem to find the lines new anywhere

Yeah thanks mate. Apparently the V8s are a bit different to the v6. And then it's got climate control aswell. Not sure if that changes anything

Hi guys, I'm currently in the process of tidying up a 1995 5l vs calais. Its all been coming together pretty well but I've got to the ac and am stuck. Its had basically everything from the pump forward removed. So the condenser and dryer and the lines have just been cut at the radiator support...
