The NITTY GRITTY on NICKS VL ! OWNER: NICK aka "YPLAY4" from Melbourne This VL Commodore was originally a 5 spd 88 model BT1 with Calais front bumper and side moulds ! Nick since added a set of 18" Momo Arrows and opted for a complete rebuild of the engine ! It was stripped and the block was bored 30 thou and new pistons and bearings were also fitted. Nick also had a new custom inlet manifold and intercooler made and bolted up. It also had an extra injector fitted. Nick has RUN the BT1 at Calder and recorded an amazing 11.8 seconds @ 18psi! Unfortunately after that Nicks car was stolen but later recovered (missing a few bits and pieces naturally :( !!) and it was then that Nick sold it to a mate ! However Nick's mate later SOLD the BT1 back to Nick and Nick bought some FR18s for the BT1 as well as modifying the engine a little bit more ! NICK added the Simmons wheels and the engine mods only to SELL the VL due to a "job change". Not long afterwards the car has since recorded a whopping 394 hp at the wheels !! The VL BT1 has also been photographed for Street Commodores Magazine, and it will be featured very soon so keep your eyes out for one very good looking yellow BT1 ! If you have some cool pix like NICKS above and own or drive a Commodore or Holden then email them to me and I will add them to my " Readers Rides " section of this website or maybe even here as the "Featured Reader" !
