Not sure if fishing......... You want a GT-R badge? Buy a GT-R. A GT-R spoiler I can live with as it's an aesthetic improvement, GT-R badge GTFO.

It is stupid, especially when you own a GTR and see a GTST or GTT with one. Its like the owner has a massive L tattooed to his forehead. They are tryhards, they should stick to the shopping list dow

I bet ya don't see VLs with Nissan badges :)

Well I dont think anyone really aspires to owning a Nissan. A GTR maybe and some of 4WD types like the Patrol but the Nissan badge itself, na. Far too many cod ordinary cars over too many years to establish any of the things the marketing types like to think the "brand" represents.

If you dont believe me check the number of GTR's with the Nissan badges removed....

I know I laugh at V6 commonwhores with chev badges, but chev badge on a chev powered car personally I have no issues with cause that is basically what it is

If you ever went to the middle East then you'd laugh a whole lot then, as the commodore is sold there as a Chev, not a holden.

Probably trying to avoid unwanted attention (every knucklehead trying to race them)

I've had my 32 since 2002 and I've had all manner of shit box try and race me, at one point I was going to put a GTS-4 badge on it but then I realised I should be proud of what my car is and just give the wannabes the bird and move on with my day

There used to be a Vl non-turbo in Ballarat that had one of those massive nismo front windscreen sticker/decal on the bonnet. :domokun:

Despite the usual hate on forums like this for local made stuff, the new stuff is actually very good for what it is. Certainly much better than what they are given credit for.

I have 2 Toyotas. :D

I also have Sony xplod stereo, may swap for jiz seat

Star wars ..Kinugawa turbo aren't even made In china you idiot...

Sorry they are made in Taiwan (like that makes it any better somehow), according to china taiwan is part of china and since im a chinese nationalist that supports the one-china policy Kinugawa is hence a chinese turbo, So please refrain from your insults Artz. Inb4 political debate.

Furthermore there has been a thread about these turbo's on SAU somewhere, where a vendor selling these turbo's has even expressed

concerns about sloppy quality control. Classic issue with parts come out of that region, the japanese got quality control down a decade ago

China and taiwan are still learning and catching up.

& the current VF commodore SS is sold as the Chevy SS in the states.

Haha yeah I'm shit stiring, my sister inlaw just bought a brand new SSV ute with the six speed manual and other then the shity clutch, I was quite impressed with how far they have come, my father inlaw has a 2002 SS ute and I think that is a massive POS

That shitty clutch is still light years ahead of the cable they were using even in the VS series. And the VU is regarded as one of the best looking commodore utes made. Try and pick up a VU maloo for cheap.

as in new holdens? Good?

They are cheaply made, they rattle left right and centre, and then they slap the price they do on them..

100k for a new GTS? get f**ked holden.

And they wonder why the factories are shutting down.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must me missing something?

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.
