Fucking oath we have bounce for days sounds great bro
You're on a nice piece of property. 👍 Boys and their toys. Lol
Very tidy looking..👍
Fresh
Thought it blewxhahaha fucking autos
Suprise it still around
those seats are vs statesman
Lol what a shitbox. But go the Aussie V8. They are awesome
They're not real powerful but they will go all day. IT has VP front but VN tail lights and rear garnish. I haven't seen a VP Calais dash but it looks the same as my VN Calais except for the carbon wrap. IT may have blown the headlight relay under the bonnet. Cool ride mate
cheers for coming down bro.
cool show of cars man! hopefully i’ll have something cooler to bring along next time your over 🙌🏼
Nice rig lad, i had a 5ltr vr calais with a t5 put in it and the motor had a little bit of work done, the intake manifolds are a big let down on these motors, i pissed of the fuel injection and chucked a high rise manifold with a holley 650dp and it made a huge difference.
thanks man! yeah mint! was the manual conversion easy? as much as i want to just put an ls in it for easier power. I’m thinking maybe a worked 5L just cause it will be all original
@@BrockHarper nah it wasn't too hard, the hardest thing about it was gathering the parts needed to do the conversion but once you got everything you'll do it in a day. Yeah there not a bad motor a cam and heads package would wake it up nicely but if I was you I'd focus on swapping out the Auto and than looking into those holley 4 barrel efi throttle body's with a dual plane manifold to suit, you can still run your standard ecu without needing to get a tune so you could wait until you chuck a cam in it to bother with tuning it
Already selling it mate!?
Yeah mate! if it sells it sells, if not ill keep cruising and eventually LS it. Just another car that sits around and would rather it go into something newer
VP 5L Calais = best car to run from the coppers
Sweet Vp brock. A full service will help. K&N air filter, pacemaker headers with hi flow cats. Love the sound of my Vt clubsport 5L with pacemakers, worth every cent. Replace the suspension with monroe shocks and king springs. 18 inch wheels are a much smoother ride and cheaper tyres than 20 inch.
Thanks man. Yeah it’s got extractors etc. Gotta be careful with K&N filters man, most of the time your supposed to use the air filter oil. Puts a film on all sensors and causes more damage than good. I know these don’t really have many sensors but still paper the way to go or a good cold air setup 👌🏽
@BrockHarper True if you add too much oil. I have a Mace cold air intake with K&N pod filter in an enclosed box with a clear top. 5L can breath much better than stock intake.
A mates old man had a white VP Calais International when new, I fell in love with that car!!!
I've always loved the VP over the VN anyone wanna fite me over it, 'ave a go
Eshay brah
Good video. Stick with it. 😃
Diff vp tell by fenders
I owned that about 10 years ago, paint off the doors is from me removing pink 2sus stickers
true man! that’s cool to know haha. What other stories do you have about it 😂
Its cool bro. Personally I think it sounds pretty good - I've owned a few HSVs and I think the 5L sounds really nice even compared to them - you wont regret spending a bit on the suspension to make it feel a bit better as well - not only in general but in the wet etc.
If you run out of fuel your car won't start with only 5L of fuel in the tank.
have used a 5L drum plenty of times mate
@@BrockHarper I haven't ran out of fuel many times at all, but one time I did I put 5L in and it still didn't start needed more was VR V8. Either way thought I'd mention it. 😊
*Cops are going to be pulling you over all the time like flies on shit.💯% I like the car and video mate.👍👍*
Lol yeah because they don’t have one or know anything about them 😕
@@chrisczaj7947 What do you mean?
*Looks like Ormeau that last bit in housing area you were driving through. Just up from Ormeau traino.💯*
Hahaha.. I'm on the Goldy. 😁 At least he's not a leb hanging out at Maccas carparks..
holy moly that vp/vn calais looks so dahm good. the vps my fav holden ever
thanks man, checkout my latest vid 🙌🏼
You sure its a VP, its got VN tail lights and garnish, VN dash badge, no spats, is it IRS or solid diff? Those seats look to be vr or vs statesman, and the little woodgrain door trim things.
I was wondering the same, got the vp Calais Chrome inside and out on the doors, climate control, steering wheel, and vp buttons around the cluster. IRS or solid diff will determine what it is. Mate commy either way
VP IRS 👌🏽
@BrockHarper deadly I love irs get them nice and lower than solid diffs
Bump up the compression if you ever put money into the engine it will make it a lot healthier
i was looking into stroker kits etc, just no bang for your $ in my opinion. I’ll be putting an ls in it before that 👌🏽
@BrockHarper don't stroke it go with some flat tops to bump up compression a decent cam and injectors with a tune should see it getting 3rd gear powerskids, or the cheeky vortec on the stock engine will make it do pretty similar
@BrockHarper if you really want to ls swap a 6.0 and the 6l80 will last a long time if not a 5.7 and a semi built 4l60 or 6 speed would be tough
@@jarrynsmithNo way that thing is doing 3rd gear burnouts with 3.08 diff gears. 1st gear only, dies in the arse once it goes into 2nd.💯
@victorpeirce4753 it should with 10 to 1 compression some neat injectors and a cam+tune should do that. It would be more torque based but should definitely smoke 3rd with normal tyres. Your not wrong though I have seen diff gears wake stock 304's up especially 5 speeds
Do it for Brocky ❤
❤️
I remember having compression sessions (buckets) in a mates vn Berlina around 2003 listening to this WU song. Those front fog lights looks spicy as.
😂😂 would love to see it haha. thanks for watching man
Looks like the back of tambourine or mundoolun 👌
Beauty
aye big man come over
@@BrockHarper u bet, Gimmi a few years
Better than nothing. Good unit.
It's about the cruise and sound with these old girls... they do love some boost though 😊
spot on man! exactly what i got it for, have the ute for power and this just to cruise. aye don’t give me ideas 🤔😂
Just got my first v8 ba falcon boss 260 like 2 weeks ago for 2.5k 206 thousand ks full logbook services 2nd owner they were buying a house so they needed any money they could and already had a suv and just had a kid so i couldnt even say no for 2.5k @@BrockHarper
The cruise and the sound are the ONLY thing those 394s are good For...in general not a good engine...... at all
With right mods willl be nice
20s are not too bad on a proper suspension setup
not wrong man, but I guess on shitty springs with standard shocks it’s never gonna be great 😂 Doesn’t really bother me though looks tuff. Thanks for watching
Tough as just that body kit and bonnet scoop look abit whack
I dont mind it hey! i think it kinda sets it off from some of the others around
Sometimes I miss my old 5L VN. This was a good throwback
thanks for watching mate 🙌🏼
They are not that slow when stock I ran a 14.6 with just an exhaust Vs 5L 304 same engine as urs
yeah they are decent for what they are! i’m just used to manual ls1s etc..
*14.6 😂😂 more like 15.6. lad.*
@@victorpeirce4753 yeah sorry you are right I forgot you were driving the car my bad
@@Antonchigurh69344 A stock injected 5.O V8 3O4ci wouldn't run a 14.6 even if it was in my ride on mower, but please keep talking out of your rear derp. No stock injected 5.O V8s ran 14.6, 15.4-15.7.on a good day. They are slower than the 3.8 Buick V6 in a VN.
@@victorpeirce4753 you are that one guy at the pub when people get stuck with you they agree with you just to end the conversation and walk away , so yes it ran the times you said ✌️
oi nah sick car, keep it up brah
thanks man will keep them coming for sure
new video out next week, like the video if you want more ❤️
tuff
keen to see more vids on this beaut
will be heaps more to come, just getting it good enough for rego and then the vids are coming 🙌🏼
new mic and camera gear for the next vid hopefully 🤞🏼
Dirt bike killed the vid
you need to start uploading more bro you have so much potion. why can't you ride the bike?
thanks man! and i snapped my ankle in a few spots late last year, tendon came out etc. 😢
Do you shift in the wheelie or just pop it up in 4th?
Nice
What gear r u in?
4th 👌🏽
imagine the cameraman
