I know this is a ford forum but I found this pretty cool video on the ls1.com.au forums if anybody is interested in watching.

Very fast V6 commodore, runs in the 13 second quarter mile bracket without even forced induction!

[Lukeyson]

Nice Car !

Looks like he needs a wheel alignment, bad.. :P

V6 Vengence is owned by Scott Taylor - who at the time of building the car worked for Street Commodores Magazine (he's now a freelance writer).

The point of the car was not to look good, but to see just how fast you could make a basic, crappy Series 1 VN go by using bolt on and home engineered items (stuff anyone with basic mechanical skills could do themselves relatively cheaply).

The fact that the magazine write up was supposed to be a 6 part story and eventually ended up being a 30-part series shows just how popular the ideas this project presented were.

Being a Ford forum, we no doubt laugh at this car, but imagine if you will that it was a Series 1 3.9 CFI EA Falcon GL.

Imagine if you could make that car do 11's for under 8 grand - I imagine you'd be laughing your **** off when you blew of the ****er who'd been looking down his nose at you for driving an EA.

Young Ford and Holden fans basically want exactly the same thing, they just use a different brand of base car to start from.

That was a top little Vid.

Cheers.

As the child says.... He explains it all at the end doesnt he...

[dogbreath_48]

I've been (not too closely) following the progress of this car and all i can say is good on ya! In this day and age of slow and shiny (think ricers), it's great to see a shitbox VN running 11's. Wouldn't be my choice of vehicle, but none the less, sad to see it's died/dying.

go to pit stop heheh

[XRated]

What a weapon!! Imagine the driveability of it though!! And I wouldn't think it'd be exactly street legal with the trumpets out the bonnet, or did they make sure it was street legal at the same time?

LMAO @ EA I GL cutting 11s!! Someone do it ff.com.au drag car!

[lv619]

It may be a cheap 11sec car, but it's still an unradworthy POS...

[Thornie]

Never a more correct statment on the car. The big POS should be in pick a part.

I thought Casper was a busy boy, but thats nothing compared to half a mil

[eb_5litre]

At the risk of sounding a little juvenile, I wouldnt care if it did 9's... its still a commodore.

[4.0i_SiX]

Good effort for not much cash, for christs sake bolt the steering wheel on straight!

I give credit where credit is due

POS turbo EA Series 1 anyone?

I was gonna say that, but i'm thinking there's reasoning behind it. Better view of dash/easier to hold or something... Or maybe it's to add character.

[Peuty]

Yeah, cool car, what a sleeper.

Typical Holden video but. It would have been nice to actually hear the car go, and to watch it do a quarter WITHOUT being fast forwarded. And for goodness sake, stop with the crappy visual fx.

[Gammaboy]

What I think is really funny is that guys with the Turbo version of the same motor in a Buick in the states are running 9s..... 11.99? pffft. lol. what a shitter..... :P
wonder how fast it actually ran N/A with the stupid trumpets?
