At least that one has the Capri V6 engine....not that thats a good point!

I would buy this:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2004-VAUXHALL-HOLDEN-MONARO-5-7L-V8-BLUE-GREAT-COND_W0QQitemZ160257455824QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item160257455824

Then blow another 5 grand on the supercharger and suspension kit to get it upto 500 brake!

And factor in another couple of grand for decent AP brake set up cause the standard ones are shite

The 5 grand is the full conversion price....includes brakes!

Thats right you can, but that contradicts your 5k all in for s/c, suspension and brakes.

And the harrop 112 running 6psi wont get you to 500BHP.

Also, you have to have headers, sports cat and exhaust fitted which is 2k+ in addition to that 6k

As said, I would import from the states and fit myself  :y

There is no flux capacitor it can't be real :D


The real one, with Flux Capacitor as in the "Back to the Future" films,  was on the Richard & Judy show (Ch.4) late this afternoon. ;)  Priceless! :y

It would do me for going around town and a bit further besides! ;D :y
