Oooohhh, I think I've just done something very childish in my trousers

WOW did you see how clean the V6 engine was that they took out.
hang on that must be a promo shot of the V6 engine as the header tank on the V8 one is black unless they sprayed it afterwards
-
very very verY! nice. Looks like a perfect fit too.
Soooo want to do the same with the 6.0 Supercharged Monaro engine here.

Oh very nice indeed :y, so who's gonna try it out here in the UK first then ::)

Why, to look at it? How could any of us pay the petrol bill for something like that? :o

I browsed some Monaro forums once... they are not too bad!!
On a motorway run it can get 25mpg+, tend to average 17-21 though on usual runs.
Not far off Omega ;)
I currently fill the tank on my Omega twice a month!

The holden 'omegas' I drove abroad are all V8 and I was lead to believe its the omega chassis.
Is this true?

The holden commadore is Omega chassis but a tad wider i think.
American Catera's are exactly the same i think!
-
i wonder what the performance figures are on that beast!
i really want that car!!!!

Let me see.. We need someone with a V6 Omega with an engine that's seen better days, perhaps with noisy lifters and rusty cams.... ::)

I think the handling could be off, might need to change the 1 air shock and 1 stanard shock on the back for something better.
If we can source a V8, with a manual box for around 1k.... i might very well do it!

wonder how much he's after for that, including the gearbox, mmm ::)
-
I like the additional oil pressure gauge and the voltmeter in the MID's place, but sadly it a LHD instrument panel so not transferable to the UK meega...
-
Looking at that Catera at the start of the post....yes it is a cracking car as in engine and performance...........but my babe looks just as good, stick an irmscher kit on it as Mike Dundee has and i think there is nothing to beat the looks, be it holden or Catera.

No need for a V8........a 4 pot 2.2 does the job perfectly...... :y
Just ask AA..........and if anyone disagrees with him.......just remember hes an Admin :-X

Opposite lock, set it up, steer on the throttle.....mmmmm :P
Lots of room though, reckon i'd spin a few times before getting it right! But once you gauged it....Playtime!!!!! 8-)
