There are kits available for sigma's.
That will make it easier.

website??


would you be able to use the commodore ecu for injection etc or would you have to use aftermarket? or is it possiable to go over to a carby?

Just buy the kit its simple and you get the loom too and you use the standard computer.

all seems so simple too,what sort of brake and suspension upgrade will i have to go for,i have searched but cant find any detailed info that i need

[shuggy]

i remember hearing there are some commodore struts that fit in the front, not sure which ones just grab the dimensions/specs off yours and ask they guy if there are any tough ones with same dimensions i guess

it seems simple because you forgot step one, talking to an engineer, who will probably tell you its not legal (depending on where you are and what car your converting)

I thought sigma's were heavy enough for the conversion?
But I suppose different states have different rules.....

who said sigma? but as I said depends..... and no engineers report no rego anywhere (far as I know)

also in west aust and i have seen v8 cortinas reg for road,there is a couple v6 sigmas floatin around,it wont be hard to engineer if i do it right

[75wagon]

I've seen 20B triple rotors in cortina's too.
I suppose you could put whatever you want, in whatever want, if you put the time effort and $$$ to go with it.

im pretty sure as long as its safe and not over powered and you got all the brakes and shit to support it you should be right,

im also thinkin of the 3.8 supercharged six aswell,will make a great tow car and also rip a mean skid

Hey mate check members ride for 77GalantV6

Dean has already got a Galant with the Holden V6 in and fully engineered
(in N.S.W)

I would buy the Supercharged V6

Engineer without Charger, and then fit later

Thats if the engineer says no to the Blower...But try with it first

In both NSW and QLD.
if you have 4 wheel disc on your sigma/scorp.
You don't need to upgrade the brakes (according to pat Gardner and the engineers i briefly spoken too).

But you'd be pretty silly not too. Ihaven't forgotten about puttign up the photos of the kit. just haven't had a chance yet

[boogernissan]

the brakes on the old wagon arent the best,standard solid discs on the front and drums on the rear so id have to upgrade anyways,what disc rear end could i use on the old girl,1986 gn?? wagon
