That looks great!

What ECM are you using?

No problem. I need to wire my OBDII connector pretty soon and I had dug that info up some time back. Your thread was a good reminder to go find it. I also have an E38 so please reply back on what you end up with and how well it works.

The car looks great so far. When you talked about Holden ute's I assumed you were in Australia. The term "Ute" is hardly recognized in the USA and I usually see it used by Australians where they are much more popular. Wish there were more of them here.

Apparently South Africa got Holden Monaros but we didn't. I'd like to have one of those myself.

04-06 GTO + Monaro front end kit and rear bumper cover shipped from an Aussie dealer = USA Monaro.

It's been done lots of times.

If I was buying that new of a car, I'd want it to come fully assembled. Plus I'd rather have the ElCamino type, or as the Aussies call it, a Ute.
