Thats a sign of pure jealously :rolleyes:

Also with those R31 pics, why are they all Jap spec ones? arent the Aussie ones good enough?

Atleast I posted up cars that are from Australia.

Youre also on a forum thats basied to cars from japan...

Did you know the R31s raped the VLs in the tooeys 1000, and pretty much every other event they were in, cept one race where they both stacked..

The sizzler R31 even ran with the R32 GTRS in the 91tooeys 1000 and beat alot of cars that were ahead of its time..

Did you know that the RB30ET is actually exclusive to the VL and has been made famous by VLs?

Also with the Jap spec thing, I know R31s are Japanese, however the R31s over here are different to whats in Japan, thats what im talking about.

BTW 2 of those VLs I posted up were V8s, I should know because one of them is actually mine.

Before anyone says it, I do not hate R31s, I actually dont mind them at all and have considered one.

Yeah they werent RB30ETs were they?

Also I was aware R31s did come Turbo from factory, they were RB20DETs and NO R31 ever came out with a RB30ET.

Thats what im saying.

You are missing my point mate.

NO production based R31 Aus spec or Jap spec had a RB30ET and was exclusive to VLs.

Go to CalaisTurbo.com.au and tell them different.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_Skyline#R31

Even go here for the info.

part reason there arent more and holden got the nissan engine is because of emissions, nissan wanted to run a intercoler and bov. Thank god they didnt other wise R31s would of become the uleh mobile.

f**ks sake.. This topic is f**king lame and I'm suprised it hasn't died yet.

Just buy the car you can afford/maintain/are happy with.

VLs are f**king shit cars. LOL at the ones that were meant to be good looking - they look the same as the others. The 4 door r31s look like fridges too.

If you want to start topics like this go to ns.com - they have lots of kids that have time and want to argue... back to the technical section for me.

I wish I had moderator rights so I could lock this now....

[edit: P.S. Nate I think that turbo r31 is a early non-nics RB20DET powered car.]

Im pretty sure its a auspec series 1 hence calling it the silo, but i think youre thinking it may be a passge the 4door R31 turbos..

could be right, tho..

but ther ARE some factory turbo rb30et R31s that were made.

why did you even bring up the Rb30et thing? at the end of the day is a nissan engine because everything else holden makes/made is utter crap..

Bored I guess, needed something to bitch about. lol

both cars are pretty gay, sure we can make them go fast, but you can make anything go fast, i hate ppl that put threads up like this, get off your f*kn ass, go look at a couple in the same condition, take them for a drive, go over them thoroughly and make a desicion ffs.

the r31 will most likely have less rust, out performs a vl 114kw to 121kw or something. the engine is mounted better in the r31.

But i honestly dislike the interior of an r31, been in one, several times, ive had a vltc, easy mods, good quick car (made 161rwkw with just a 3" tubo back exhaust)

vl is more likely to be raped and in worse condition, and if u find a really good condition turbo in either vl or r31, u will be paying through your nose. why dont you just go buy an excel that is a couple of years old, put a wrx bonnet scoop on it, massive muffler with a 5" tip, and stfu ...

Ryan,

Have you noticed the shit interior in your vl?

Or are you blind? Do you have to get out and look at your fresh paint to balance it out?

Even a early model camry has a better interior than that shit!

Care factor on what my interior looks like= 0.

My oh my how its funny when someone from the other side gives you (Not literally YOU) a bit of stick and everyone comes out gritting their teeth and trying to keep their composure.

Just proves some people like to give shit, but they cant take it back.

BTW I'm not being a prick, im just saying things from the VL driver perspective. :D

So, you don't care about what your interior looks like, even though its where you spend most of your time...?

No not really.

If I wanted a car for a attractive interior, I wouldnt've got a VL.

I've done a little bit to dress it up, but its not on my priority list.

vl interiors arent as bad as people give em shit for ... sure they aint the best, but let us remember what year they were made in, 1986 ... developed in 84-85 im guessing

oh and ryan, you forgot a couple of examples of vls ...

you have probally heard of ULOOKD

a vl aero/director is one sexy car, although that is not an original aero, wrong rear wing, and no flaired guards ... peace yo'all

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
