i really haven't noticed any bad XR6t drivers. i always see the commodore drivers. whether it's the mum behind the wheel or a P plater. My mum drives a commodore and she really can't drive, same goes for my girlfriends mum.

I was only thinking this morning that I haven't heard any XR6t's being pushed. i would like to because they apparently sound great.

i hear more silvia's being thrashed than new falcon or commodores.

I probably drive my skyline and charade harder than most people drive their fords and holdens, not that I am reckless or break the law, just accelerating, breaking and cornering.

in all ohenesty, I think that most family cars will beat most stock gtst's off the line, unless the gtst driver gets a great launch. the ease of launch combined with the additional torque can make the standard commodore or falcon difficult to beat. i'm not saying they are better cars, just difficult to beat off the line.

I dont really have a problem with XR6T drivers... just Honda Accord Euro drivers. They cannot drive for shit and think the cars are the best things in the world. NEWSFLASH FOR ANYONE THAT OWNS ONE: They are slow ass cheap wannabe luxury cars. Stop acting posh thinking your car is on the same level as a 5 series+ BMW.

hahaah right on :cool:

i think a lot of import drivers feel threatened by domestically sold turbo 6's.

Yeah especially woth the XR6T, The VLT isnt as much of a threat as it uses a Skyline engine anyway.

Well this doesnt have much to do with Turbo 6s but we just brought a VL V8 Calais with a worked 308, anyway since we had a hire car me and my mum were driving behind dad in the Calais as we were on the other side of Katoomba.

So we're sitting at the lights when this group of P Platers pulled up beside dad i in a Hyundai Accent, so the tosser must of thought "Hey that guy has a V8 im gonna try and act like a hard c*nt* so he proceeds to rev his little 4 banger in attempt to drag the V8 Calais.

I seriously dont know why people in shitty little 4 bangers try and run V8s, seriously I drove the Calais and the torque would've left the ricer in the dust, as its probably making about 200-250rwhp.

Should we end this discusion now!

Idiots wil always be idiots no matter what car they drive .

Whether it be a skyline,holden or a ford, its still a car and behind the wheel an idiot, hoon or bogan is still an accident waiting to happen. Egos are a dangerous thing so keep them for playing Gturismo {playstation}

BY the way XR6T's are still the best thing Ford has put out of the factory since GTHO's :cool:

I wouldnt mind having a brief blast against an XR6 with no other cars around, 4 ltr turbo sounds like a powerful beast to me I'm not interested in people driving up beside me comparing a R33 skyline that has a different paint colour to mine... Maybe they think red is faster than my white? strange...

And I don't feel threatened by an XR6 or anything like that, they're well known to be faster than a GTS (this site even has faster times posted) and I'd buy an XR6 if I

A) Could afford the car

B) Afford the fuel

C) put up with the heavy high off the ground feel

    • Am I correct in assuming that the R35's are getting the classic skyline haircut off the odometer?  Quick search on carsales, there are 33 08 and 09 GTR's for sale, only 2 of them have more then 100,000km's on them (116,075 and 110,000 respectively).  And somehow there are about 25 for sale with around 60,000kms? Looks like the classic skyline haircut to me =/
    • @Stringycheese  Have you only gone to the one blue slip workshop?  There will be a heap of them where ever you live, good odds that the next place you go to will pass the car.  Unfortunately (or fortunately?) every blue slip / engineering workshop will be different and will be happy passing or failing different things - despite working from the same set of rules. It's kinda like 2 lawyers arguing over a piece of legislation, each saying their interpretation is correct. Might seem strange that this happens when it comes to getting a modified car passed, but this is very much a thing. A big part of the game is finding an engineer / workshop that is on the same page as you.
    • Bah. I daily mine. ~60km per work day, 10-12 thousand km per year. What's the point of having a dirty old Datto and leaving it in the shed. It needs to be driven and enjoyed while the govco allows us to do so. It will only be a few years before we're forbidden to even start up internal combustion engines.
    • Judging by that spring perch and the normal looking spring on it - not a coilover. Well.... it is a coilover, just a stock format coilover, rather than what everyone calls a coilover.
    • Yes it is. We get stock from Nismo directly. I'm happy to take photos/video of it as proof before I ship it with timestamps or whathaveyou.
