Maybe the guy thought he was taking the piss out of gtr owners.

On the note of wtf for holdens....i saw a vl commadore the other day and it had like a vx body kit on the damn thing. It was like vl from the lower kit up. Looked totally farked..

:P yep those 6cyl vts are a scary thing compared to a gtr geez every time ive been in a 6cyl vt absolutly crapped myself due to bein forced back in the seat so hard gtrs got nothin..... :P

no idea i just started laughing hard as but

Was it an actual GTR badge? A while back some car yard (jarvis ford?) were flogging off a ton of mock up style cars, ie tarted up lancers with full evo bodykits, falcons, and v6 commodores with bodykits they were calling 'GTR'.

VX there was a ghey GTR model this topic has been covered but ill see wot i can drag up later reember they did s 6cyl GTS-R model also if memory servers me right

gtg out for a bit will look later for pics

I hate to say it guy's but Holden have had the GTR badge for alot longer than Nissan. In the late 60's early 70's they had LC XU-1 GTR. (Torana). Was a great little car for it's day but not as good as Ford's mighty GT. I 2 have seen VT's getting around with GTR badge's on them. A Maroon one on South rd on Saturday, huge great big GTR sticka on the back window and I must say it did look stupid, With stock wheel and all.

the PGC10 skyline was badged a GT-R in the late 60s too.

i have seen plenty of commodores with factory GT-R stickers on the bootlid, but this one was using a skyline badge with the silver GT on top and the red R underneath.

to close to call but i recon nissan :blush:

Autobarn sells them.

Reminds me of a R33 I saw at night a long time ago and I asked him if it was a GTR. He was like "Yeah its a genuine GTR man" and he took off and i could hear the car was an auto. Riigghhtttt...

    • The spray cans were in the "Kiln" room whilst I was preping the parts,  so probably around 2 hours to get them warmed up, the kiln room has 3 small ovens running at 100°c, 3 medium sized ovens running 100°c, and the large one I used running at 80°c, the room itself was about 28°c, I also spent a bit of time taping up the parts in the room as well, and by the time I was done I would assume that the parts were around that 28°c As for power, I expect a couple of Killerwasps up high would be achievable with the current mods, I'm still running the MZR 2.0 intake and throttle body, and there is a slight mismatch with the 2.0 intake (smaller) and 2.5 intake ports (larger) on the head, this intake is matched and specifically designed to fix this issue with the ports mismatch, the throttle body is also a couple of mm larger, OEM is 65mm, the Bosch is 68mm In the end it will look "prettier" than the molded plastic thing that is the OEM MZR 2.0 intake As for the LSD, it's the OEM Torsen which works fine for what I use the car for, plus, basically no maintenance apart from the occasional oil change
    • I was at Tunehouse in Marrickville (great team over there really know their VR's) , and I spotted this Very clean R35.  
    • Mate , I have the same issue right now with the exhaust noise , if you can tell me what your local guy did , I'll talk to my guys and see if they can do the same. Power is good but it just too loud when put it down. 
    • The other trick I've found with wrinkle black is to put the can in hot water for a bit to warm the paint up, and to pre-heat whatever you're painting. It'll be interesting to see if you pick up any power with the intake, following with interest. Got a proper lsd for this?
