Title: I want that one!
Post by bigrct on 23. Jun 2007 at 19:08

Hi peeps...

I've got a massive urge for an Omega, my usual cars are Rovers but I have visions of an LS7-powered elite thanks to having an engine already! My dad used to have an '94 Elite back in '94 and I loved it. I run a custom car company so am a bit of a hooligan when it comes to rear drive cars, so hopefully with a bit of advice from you guys I can build something a bit different.

Get ready for lots of 'what Monaro bit's fit'-based questions!

Welcome to the site :)

Could end up being an interesting project ;D

Yeah, should keep me quite for a few weeks!

Can't post in the wanted section yet, so if anyone has an early (not too keen on the late-spec looks) Elite for sale cheap, even with a blown engine/box please let me know. I'd love a black one as it kinda my trademark colour, and with cream leather, but never mind if not, anything will do. Also any brake and suspensions upgrade parts, too.

Cheers

Welcome. :)

This is exactly the project I wanted to tackle one day too. :)

LS7? Nice choice! 8-)
Ideally you want the drivetrain to go with it.

Aye, got it cheap when I was in the states last year, so couldn't really so no! I'm hoping to get my hands on some Holden stuff, or Monaro (same shit really!), might be able to use it as an excuse for a trip to Oz!
