LSA swapped Hummer H2 🔥

This H2 has had the factory engine replaced with a supercharged LSA — and now it’s in for VASS engineering.

Engine conversions like this involve a lot more than simply making everything fit. We assess the complete conversion to ensure the vehicle and modifications meet the applicable requirements for certification in Victoria.

Building something modified?

Get us involved early — it can save a lot of headaches later in the build.

A routine service uncovered a bigger issue. 🔧

This GU Patrol came into M Carter Automotive for a service and check-over, with the customer complaining of clutch issues.

After a thorough inspection, we found the sump was leaking. To ensure a reliable, long-lasting repair, we carried out:
✅ Exedy Heavy Duty clutch kit EXEDY Australia
✅ Genuine Nissan rear main seal
✅ Genuine Nissan sump gasket

Doing the rear main seal and sump gasket while the gearbox was out saves the customer on future labour and gives peace of mind for years to come.

This BMW X5 N47 arrived as a no-start.

During our diagnostic process, we noticed smoke being forced back out through the intake manifold while cranking.

That’s not normal—and it’s a huge clue.

Rather than throwing parts at it, we use symptoms like this to guide our diagnosis and pinpoint the root cause.

What do you think caused it?

Different eras. Same standard.

From classic air-cooled Porsches to the latest Mercedes-Benz models, every vehicle that comes through our workshop receives the same level of care and attention.

We believe great repairs start with accurate diagnostics—not guesswork.
