    Dude that’s like THE quintessential corvette. Way cool. What do you think about the salad shooter wheels on a c4? (I love the design but stock ones almost fit better on like a boxy German car) Also do you have a hard time getting parts/aftermarket stuff there for a corvette? I got an xj40 in the states and feels like anything aftermarket has to be shipped in. That’s not normal here so I was pretty envious about all the parts on your old car. Curious if it’s the same watching Americans mod corvettes.

    Just like my xj40 I get 90% of my parts from rock auto!!! Even being all the way in newzealand it’s still cheaper to go through rock auto then it is any store in nz or Aus Xj40s are very comman in nz though and ain’t worth anything…. So getting stuff like body panels and glass is pretty easy since there at a lot of wreckers! Plus saves a lot of money doing all the work on your own 😉 Salad shooters on e36s look soooo good!! 🔥

    @@jimmyscars1337 the dream is a manual swap and bags/lowering springs. They didn’t even sell the xj40 as a manual here😭! Corvette though? Cool guy GM kept the same bell housing pattern from the 350 if I’m not mistaken, and they used it in all the catfish Camaros, firebirds, and iron block truck engines. Basically anything with a v8 swaps backwards and forwards, manual and automatic. The budget racecar around here for a long time was pulling a vortec out of a junked truck, getting turbos on it, then putting into basically anything. Bonus points if you found a manual transmission to pair with it. I could be wrong though because by the time I really got into cars the junkyards were picked clean here. I think now the sauce is gonna be GM 3800s adapted to aisin manuals. Cheaper, used in a bazillion fwd and rwd cars, but not nearly as cool as an LS👌

    Awesome cars! i`ve had two XJ40 4.0 Sovereigns and enjoyed every second of them and they are amazingly easy to work on in every aspect. The thing i suggest everyone does who owns these, is to carry around in the glovebox, a spare crank position sensor. They go with almost no warning, i went out in my second car one day, drove perfect, came back, parked up on the drive and next day went to go out somewhere and it wouldn`t start. Changed the CPS and all was good again. Apart from that, the engines are bulletproof, look after them and they`ll look after you :)
