Good on you summoner,

Nice to see someones sticking up for the Aussie battler ute.

Try sticking a motorbike, or 4 wheels, or more than 1 bale of hay

in the back of a skyline! How about towing a boat?

I have a 2001 VU SS M6 235rwkw ute.Nothing like the sound of

a nice V8 winding through the gears. 260km/hr!!! Mate you must

have a hard top, 'cause anything over 220 & my tarp starts going

crazy on the rear window shelf.

Course Skylines are great (what else would I be doing on this forum) but remember what they were designed for.They are top level sports cars in Japan that only the very well off can afford.

The Holden is attainable new to the masses, & serves a large variety of different uses & needs.With wide, comfortable seats, plenty of room, & good useable torque they are excellent cars.

Ever notice how slow your Skyline is with 4 people in it?

Barely phases a V8 Holden. With 4 passengers my R34 really feels it.

BTW - just for fun I took my ute on a Skyline cruise a while back,

& managed to dust quite a few of them.

But, to be fair, I also took my R34 Vspec on a LS1 commodore cruise & dusted all of them. So what am I saying?? Hmm, not sure.

I suppose have both of them if you can.

:burnout:

My mate Brenton lives in Perth now.If he pulled up next to you in

his LC Torana, he'd dust all you all.( He pull 9.7!)

:lol:

Anyone who does not believe LS1 utes are fast should check out the latest issue of Perth Street car. The ute on the cover is running 10's at the 'Plex on the funny stuff.

THATS IMPRESSIVE in anybodys books.

I may not like the seadans and the rear end handling of the sedan and coupe but the ute is cool.

Yeah I've been caned by a couple of SS commies before. Also a 6cyl Falcon about 3 months ago, which I am still in shock over. It must have been turbo'd or something as it was an absolute thrashing. I was barely on boost by the time the Falcon was 3 or 4 lengths on me. That said, I've also beaten my fair share of V8s, mainly pre-VT2 commies, but a few LS1s.

Now why the hell am I posting in the WA forum...:confused:

    • Oh, I forgot too, all the multimedia stuff captured and sold through things like people playing Pokemon Go. Pokemon Go specifically, can actually be traced all the way back to a CIA investment company too. So yep, they're watching everything. Not to mention the new stuff where they've worked out how to use WiFi signals to be able to map occupants inside of a building. That one would be something that I see being more used in public/government buildings, as you need to understand the signals when the room has no one in it first. It's not as easy as Hollywood would like you to think it is.
    • Followed ☺️ Assuming those are NEO rods, then at least 400kW all day.
    • Lets keep this going , Spotted this very stock V35 in Penrith and also saw a nice R32 FLY past me on Castlereagh rd , sounded really good.
    • Great work! Give it a clean up with some Emery paper, and I'd run a thread die over the threads too to clean them up. It will make reinstall much easier, and also life easier for the next time it needs to come out.
    • I'm not a fan of high humidity, it's one reason I don't mind being further inland out Ipswich, except the last 3 odd years, the drought broke, and it won't stop raining, which is making the humidity nearly unbearable when the rains are in during summer! For me, my body hates the cold, once the cold sets into my body, I'm totally screwed. I end up with severe muscle spasm in my back/shoulder muscles, and it feels like someone is trying to tear the muscles out. I have no issues with it getting stupid hot, so long as the humidity goes away. So the last 3 years as above, have been woeful! Ha ha. However, June 1st, and I'm only just converting from shorts and a tee, to long pants and a t shirt. And that's mainly as it's a bit wet and miserable and I wanted to work on a car.
