the other points in your post hold some merit, i think the contrary, but whatever, if it does see production, many aspects will change.

as for the bit about the holden badge, open your bollocksing eyes. stop being so damn single minded. its attitudes like that which cause so much trouble in the automotive 'enthusiast' scene.

appreciate the car for what it is, dont simply write it off because of the badge.

made me lol edit, bollocks. nicely done to whoever set that up.

Every thread that is to do with holdens he posts the same shit.

Vietorous, can you post a pic of your car? You are so unbelievably single minded about things. So bollocksing what if it has a holden badge. Do you like the new GTR? If so, how can you not atleast respect the look of this car? Its not that far off it and shares a lot of similarities in design. But I forgot, R33 GTS-T's are the be all and end all of cars and because you've got one, that makes it sick..

Remember it's got a Holden badge. He thinks every Holden is crap. Probably never had any real experience either, other than riding shotgun in a mate's worn out VP V6 for 5 minutes.

Never liked him, or his opinions.

Just poking a little fun. I respect people and their choices on the car - I have mates that drive Holdens and sure I crack a funny one here and there but its all fun and games.

My attitude doesnt cause trouble in the automotive enthusiast scene - the attitudes that do are the ones who says it seriously and takes it seriously. Friendly competition doesnt hurt.

Whats a pic of my car got to do with anything? When did I ever say my car is better/be all end all/fully sick? I'm just posting an opinion on the car of topic and cracking a funny one. :) Harden up - dont like my post theres an "ignore user" option in my profile - use it.

push rod engines dont rev, dont make power, and are clearly handicapped.

:P

You are joking about the don't make power remark aren't you? Bolt on a twin turbo kit onto a LS1 with just upgraded valve springs and you'll see 400rwkw. Bolt one onto a LS2 and you'll see 450-500rwkw.....How on earth is that not power?

looks f*kn tuff

i would buy one

and on the whole pushrod argument, and yes we've heard it all before

its relatively old technology compared to twin cam etc

but GM are still using it coz its still quite an effective set-up

personally im waiting for the big quad cam donk to start production in the near future hopefully

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
