I love how the comparison is between a 7 to 10 year old car and a brand new (is it even out yet?) car.

 

1994 Clubsport is how quick?

 

There are also these things called corners which some of us like.

Haven't read the rest of the thread yet, but these 2 things are what came to my mind first of all as well :cheers:

SkylineKiller - You must be some kind of hero.

And people that drive Commodores wonder why they have the reputation that they have.

Does your mum have to change your pants for you when your brain dribbles out your ass from thinking too hard?

C'mon guys leave 'Fireblade Jay' alone, I'm sure his bogan (16yo) girl loves him in his sailor uniform...haha as if you'd put that on your homepage LOL...shame the site has exceeded its data transfer I wanted a new avatar :cheers:

Man, the Holden guys are all the same. Even when I had the Mustang, they'd say "it's still only a Ford". Then you would start to give them shit when Ambrose won and all of a sudden they are silent until " well, Holdens have won for the last few years". Just do what the XR6t guys do and just ignore them :cheers:

I have not laughed that hard in ages. I actually showed your responses Bogan Eater to some of the "V8" guys over here.

Now have you heard of Summit Racing??? They won Pro Tock in the US again. Now there are some floors in your arguement.

1. You have made no sense, no definitive point and certainly no evidence

2. The amount of money you have spent on your engine alone would be the cost of a skyline, plus performance parts to bring it to the same level

3. Holdens should be compared to their domestic competitors, such as Ford who have better performance figures, build quality and overall value for money.

4. Next time I want an over-equiped boat towing bucket of crap then I will buy a HSV, until then I have a big enough dongle not to require a bigger donk.

5. My dad introduced me to drag cars when I was 6 I love cars, and you comparing a Keith Black to a GTR engine is just stupid as you are comparing something engineered specifically for drag racing and then something out of the factory for the domestic market. And as other have pointed out already, a trap speed of 119mph is lucky to get you into the 13's ass

6. The chick in the photo looks like she's 16 and would suck anyone's dick for a fix

7. 90% of my mates work in workshops that use V8's, and they respect cars you have no respect for anything

8. You have some sort of mental problem were you dick has obviously shrunk and you cannot find it, and as such have a need to divert your anger.

9. Your an angry angry little man

10. And just for the record my first car was a VK, which I dropped a 350 Chev into. Now that thing was quick, but the last time I checked fuel prices were no longer 58c like they were back then and the efficiency of the RB engines still surpasses most engine of today...what can you say about the VORTECH supercharged 5.7 that you are throwing around. Last time I checked the horsepower heroes was turbocharged, and that was 1200HP...not street driven...

Lastly, but not least of all...I hope you sleep well at night cause you really are an unintelligent, small minded person who should have been strangled at birth.

lmao fmd :cheers: this has to be the best comment yet by far !

Thank you its been a long day...and I have to add...

Dear Mr HSV Lover Lover

Do you honestly think before you type or is that 16 year old typing for you...and at the end of the day, shit happens the world turns around and there is ALWAYS someone with more money and is going to be quicker...

And for the record have you looked at sport compact in the states lately for their times...and most cars use small capacity FACTORY blocks...jackass

Take care MOFO.

Remember, HSV Everyone has one...they just need to put badges on their commodores and most of them do!!!

Western Australia's, Skyline KILLER!!!!

Nice $60k or whatever Taxi mate. Very impressive, not. If it was making the power per litre of my 2 ltr then you would have about 11-1200 hp. So much for a v8 being effecient or impressive in any way!

also because you seem blinded by it, the gtr is detuned from the factory something tools like you must get around. A stock gtr is one with a full exaust and computer. Just like i would conisder a stock LS whatever to still be stock if it had and exaust and computer. The factory can only show the potential, and exaust and ecu will quickly show what the car was meant to do without having to be so concerned with driveability, fuel consumtion, power caps, noise etc. stuff

btw the hydratrak in your taxi is a good example of how crap the aussies compared to the japs, i mean in the supercars holden run a ford diff. How fuct up is that.

GMH think gemini :flamed:

You Guys take bait to easily.......it's horses for courses....He Likes holdens (it's not your fault he has bad taste).......we like skylines.....end of story....get over it!!!!

It's not really that important, have some mutual appreciation.....a lot of fun can be had in a V8 too you know :cheers:

LOL, Nice coment Bobjones, I have two nissans and i will always own a nissan, but my mate has this SS, and even though it's a commo, i still think its tuff, i think you will agree

http://www.qldstreetcar.com/forum/index.ph...?showtopic=3708

if you are going to compare a current HSV (which is a specialist tuned holden) to anything skyline it should be compared to the current Nismo Skyline. That is, the Nismo Z-tune R34 GTR. Now that's a worthy comparison, and I know which one I'd have.

yes, I know he's been banned but with such little to do I'd say he's still reading this as a guest...

    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Comparison of the 2: Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
