OMG I cant believe so many people here want bloody holdens! Thats a disgrace. I laugh everytime I see a fully sik commy with negative camber on the rear to match the leaning tower of pisa! Those idiots think its looks cool, but dont realise it fudges up your tyres! Tools!

In reality, I would get a mk1 or 2 supra or a Peugeot 205 Gti.

AdzT3-146 · 11-05-2005, 10:14 AM

VS, Black, dumped on 17's, big zorst, tints - fully sic!

Are you laughing when they pass you?

Only the cars with IRS have camber like that cos they have no choice when the car is lowered.

I would be very happy with an early rx3 with turbo rotor, or datto 1600 with a jap turbo 4 in it.

I would also love to own a manual gen 3 and I would have if the turbo AU had fallen through. Sorry guys

OK Dan, Thats what Camber Castor kits are for. These people are told they need it when the lower their cars, otherwise tyres are in for a hell of a beating. They DO have the choice.

dansedgli · 11-05-2005, 11:12 AM

But they cant correct it when the car is dumped. My mate spent $1800 lowering his VS and he put the kits on the rear and they are still on an angle as pedders couldnt straighten them to be like normal.

My other mate took his non IRS VS to the same place and his wheels are still normal and his car is lower.

lv619 · 11-05-2005, 11:15 AM

LOL, I almost purchaced a VS Clubby the other week... but then a couple of my brain cells kicked into gear and lead me away from the dark side.

I've also been looking at getting either and R32 GTR or R33 GTS25-T (lol), but as someone else has already mentioned, i'm a bit iffy about this decision because of the stigma attatched to owning such a car (and insurance + being on P's etc...).

Yeah but those model commo's are usually sticking out a bit even when they are normal. Meh, i guess it depends on the car.

dansedgli · 11-05-2005, 11:31 AM

Hmm, commodores suck even though I wish I had IRS, better traction would be nice!

niko · 11-05-2005, 11:37 AM

my parents 1981 Merc 280se on 20's

already tinted, already optioned up, just missing a sunroof and leather ;)

ned · 11-05-2005, 11:38 AM

RX3 with a turbo rotor
R100 with a turbo rotor
VL Turbo
Gemmy Turbo

They are in no particular order, there's something about a buzzing rotor that's appealing haha.

TURBO_GHIA · 11-05-2005, 11:51 AM

turbo datsun 1600 510

FRDXR6 · 11-05-2005, 11:54 AM

If i saved up some more then this:

S15 - Black - White 19"s - Leather Interior, sr20det's are awesome

:

If i wanted something fun:

Datsun 1600 - FJ20 intercooled turbo - & engineered

Otherwise most likely an import of some kind 180sx, 200sx, LS400 or R32

dansedgli · 11-05-2005, 11:56 AM

oooh ooh and one of them too! I love S15's!!!

i totally agree! finaly someone whos thinking straight!! how can any of you "ford fans" even think of getting a holden! :nutsycuck
if i had to buy something other than a ford, it would be this beast

mcflux · 11-05-2005, 12:16 PM

I'd go for a big black (gloss) CL/CM Valiant (Regal?) with heaps of chrome, small diameter wirey-spokey rims (silver/platinum, not gold) or large diameter with whitewalls, and of course the 318 fireball (or a 265 hemi). If LPG excise isn't introduced, I'd have it built to run on straight LPG, otherwise premium all the way :p

Walkinshaw · 11-05-2005, 12:24 PM

If its not to be my daily driver, then the choice is easy.

1978 P6 LTD Silver Monarch.
Airbags
Straight gas 378
300 spoke 15x7 and 15x9

ahh here we go. Unlike you Dan, some people live to do other things than have a car than can do pass under 13 secs...lol

If you seriously wanted a VL turbo, then I know your type; pitty you didn't get one.

As Danny said, they are the ones that choose to do it. It stuffs their cars geometry up while destroying their tyres; I dont care but it just shows how little they know. But it looks cool so its ok yeah....

darkfang888 · 11-05-2005, 01:35 PM

First choice: Aston Martin (if I could afford it!)
Other (affordable) choices: '73 Oldsmobile Delta or a nice wee Charger.

haha! They know nothing? Im thinking about a Pot and a Kettle, can you name that phrase?

How do you know me so well? Im intrigued.

ned · 11-05-2005, 02:39 PM

He's a Geelong man, as am I and to date I have not seen a single EA/EB/ED to match any one of the 5 VL turbo's around here that I know of. I can guarantee there's certainly more! One VL turbo owner that I know of has snapped his driver's seat three times from hitting boost on several occasions! I'd take that over my EB that's for sure.

I can't answer for him, but it was your "I want a VL turbo" story that put you on the map! Nah only joking :P

dansedgli · 11-05-2005, 02:43 PM

haha, sounds like a weapon but Im sure polyal will tell us why his EA is better when he logs on again and tells me more about myself.
