it started off as an engine build for my old car but then decided to start off from scratch so began looking for another car to put the engine in. i looked at many cars from toranas to ex robbie wards (rips) rx2 but ended coming back to the old trusty vl


i then set about dropping the engine into the new vl i bought aswell as delooming and smoothing the engine bay.

the car was taken to c&m performance to get tuned it produced 290rwkw on 14psi just run in tune. it then recieved a ford nine inch diff and a few other things have changed to the engine bay since these pics were taken and as of a few weeks ago it recieved a new paint job of voodoo blue over asteroid silver with light blue pearl

man loooks awsome as bro!!!!!

nice vl! looks and power to match. you must be thrilled with it! i love that colour, suits it really well and looks fantastic

cheers guys yeah very happy with it , its come along way since i bought it it was all original bit rough and was a 2 litre. just in the process of sorting a new trans for it so i can see what it will do down the quarter
