I have owned both.

VN.....harsh motor..last forever.

VL...sweet motor...need to look at some repair work..ie head gaskets..etc.

Paint work on the VL is a lot better.

Most VN's have bad fade marks on DUCO.

Series 2 VN are not bad....series 1 has water coolant issues.

GO VP ....VN was the first and the worst....

VL was last of the series...this is why they are more sort after.

Just my thoughts......

GO VL.......at least they still turn heads.

i own a VL, i know a few people that owns VN's, get the VL. the only time i wouldn't recomend a VL for a daily is if its a turbo that you are modifying also.

VLT+mods=more time off the road than on it, literally....

VN will get you less attention than the (in)famous VL, and a VN has waaaay more room in it. Plus the interior is... 'good' isnt the right word, better than the VL thats for sure. Plus you can leave a VN anywhere and not have to worry about it because frankly, who cares? its a VN

The VL dash can be quite a lot of fun if you pick up a problem child... and good luck getting the air con to work

Had a VN 1988 v6 manual(good fun tank slapper). Did the job, tip though, make sure coolant hoses and heater hoses are replaced!

If you had less than half a tank going around a round about motor would die for a sec cos the tank has no baffles, the little things!

      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?
