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.

I dont like you or your opinions either.

As stated below - 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

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
