Wife's car needs another key, best price was $425 supplied, cut and programmed, ring a mate at holden and the rest is in the happy thread.;)

There...

Sorry, you gotta transfer another hundred into AB's account

Cheers mate, I'm really happy with the outcome. I used a heat gun to stop the paint from cracking and just used a small shifter and slowly worked my way around.

Finally got the daily driver back on the road. Bloody repco gave us the wrong Vrs kit (incorrect rocker cover gasket) and wouldn't exchange as it was part of a kit.

Small fortune on gaskets...

although things may or may not have changed since this was done in 2003................ only saying ;)

Sorry, Rumcajs, but do you have anything to support this statement about China? From all the stories it is clear their service has been crap and will tell any tale but still not send. However, I...

Yeh , its not a "postage" problem, the second one I was sent (to replace the crusty one) arrived in just a week, obviously If you are lucky they have stock whe you order.

Thanks for this thread...

Really I cbf'd searching lol!


I might not be fitting the turbo otherwise I would've lined it up that way. I was planning on tapping it next to the sump plug, should be low enough.....

Today I tested her out in the bush for the first time. I'm happy to say that apart from my brakes failing a couple of times (sorted now) everything went smoothly.
A few mates and I met up with...

Certainly was mate.

And just confirming for anyone else in eastern side of Melbourne, the only place for the test in our entire region is Knox.

very nice rig mate

It's only the high horse power TD42 after market turbo engines with the viper flywheels that seem to be breaking cranks & quite a few have broken. It isn't the balancing it's the weight of them...
