Nah not local Dave. He was actually a forum member on here too. It is a A172 shell not a 75, but everything fits in and they look identical. Best part is there is no rust :D

Re: help with v6 conversion??

I think it is a great swap. It all depends really on what you want to achieve with your car as to what way you should go.Yes there is great arguements to both sides on here, however as there is plenty of motors available and there is a kit for the conversion meaning you could keep the costs down if ...

Re: My GN Wagon (GRANDPA)

Hi Dave, Yep conversion is underway.

I never do things in halve...

Well both motors are out, and the cleaning/fixing stuff has begun. I noticed some things when looking around the empty bays that i will most likely have to transfer over.

Re: My GN Wagon (GRANDPA)

What sort of brake setup do you have. The GN's only had drum brake rears. They were not even an option. You really do need a brake upgrade if you want to use the power and keep it on the black stuff. I have the complete Starion brake package (including the booster)I took the rears also for when i b...

Re: My GN Wagon (GRANDPA)

Organizing the fuel and exhaust system will take longer than the motor swap over. I hope so! The Starion has a 3 inch exhaust on it, so i am hoping i can use some sections of that. I am just using the bosch 910 fuel pump that was in the starion too. Wiring in the Haltech is going to take the longes...

Re: help with haltech

Are you turning the ignition off and on for the reset? If not look up the haltech website. It has heaps of info and will sort you out in no time. A ja starion with a 2.6 turbo? Not sure if you're aware or not, but in Aus these never came out with this motor. would be keen to see a pic.

Goodluck.
