A sad day today as I waved goodbye to my Crown halfcut........ I sold it to a bloke who intends on putting it into a Zephyr ute, for his missus! Now that would be a sweet conversion!! We had a nice little time getting it onto his trailer, as he only was able to bring some 14" rims, so the...

Hi lads, Has been a while since I've posted, but I have regretfully sold my Crown Royal Saloon halfcut. Whilst I still intend on doing my planned VK Calais conversion, it just wont be for a little while. But anyways, the guy is picking it up on Sunday and I just want to know what type of...

Ok, found this site tonight. Scroll down halfway and read up on the lifetime car rego's and 100 year drivers licences. This guy is a nutcase. www.upmart.org

Well, well, well.... Now the fun really begins. I finally took delivery of my half cut this morning. But I am a little confused. When ordering my cut from The Toy Shop, it was specifically mentioned that it was a front sump Crown Majesta. So, I've basically started to plan things based on...

Anybody out there got any recommendations on who can do a drive-in drive-out style conversion for our lovely 1uz? A mate of mine wants to convert his VP Commodore, but cant be stuffed doing any work!! Anyone located in NSW/ACT would be better for him. Thanks guys. Damo

OK, I'm in a quandry here, need some suggestions. I am just about ready to go and purchase my half cut (like within the next week or so). I was all ready to get a Crown, but then the Celsior keeps jumping in my head. Some advantages and disadvantages I can think of between the two at the...

Quick question, since these are Ja.panese engines run in Ja.pan (coming from a half-cut obviously), what type of fuel is the best to use for these engines? What is our fuel like compared to theirs? Any ideas? Damo

Hi all, I must say firstly that this forum has so far provided me with truckloads of useful information on my planned conversion. But in the process, I think i have overwhelmed myself with the amount of information here and am confused. I have a VK Calais sitting here begging for some work...
