Raced a V8 Holden ( Australian car ) with a 350 chev motor supergharged
The car is owned by 1 of the mechanics son's. We used an old road, 2 lane road which is now closed and it goes for about 1.5 kilometers. We've marked the road for the quarter mile and I intend to race Rotor Eater (forum member) tomorrow morning. He get's a 3 second head start. I won my first one, lost the second one, Due to going from second to fifth, and I won the last one. I won by about 2 car lenths. I piss on V8's https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...iss-monkey.gif https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683651.gif I think the car could still do better. |
We are getting the Holden V8 here as the reincarnated "GTO". It doesn't look too exciting, I wish they would have saved the GTO badge for something a little more signifigant.

Mr Methanol, You would understand. You're from this neck of the woods, it's not the new manaro's, It was a commodore VT 2001 model 5.7L with under bonnet supercharger.

Yer I know I was just interested to know about the new Pontiac GTO "2 door Commo" https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...R#>/tongue.png Glad to see someone else cleaning up the local ferals https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/cool.png

The GTO should make about 300 flywheel HP.

"Mate", I heard about the race you had with mike's holden. I've raced against him and lost the best of three races. I lost 3 and won none. What happened with race 2 ? Couldn't you find third gear anymore, it's staight after second. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif

No **** aye, just a 2 door commo with a different front end, I laugh at the morons that play in excess of 90K AUD for these POS, altho I think the ones your getting has a fair bit more power than the ones on our market, out of curiosity, how much are you guys paying for them?
|
Its because of the import taxes and compliance costs. Because they are rare over here people will pay anything for them. The worst thing IMO is having to stick a huge CAUTION LEFT HAND DRIVE VEHICLE sticker on the back of the car. Makes it look ****.

And I laugh that you aussie idiots pay TRIPLE for corvettes and camaros and mustangs. Want to talk about pieces of crap, lol.

Ewww, you have to put a warning sticker on them?
When I see right hand drive cars here in the states (which is pretty rare) I dont see any warnings. It's usually some slow gaywad car like a Fiat or MGB anyway. Camarslows,Rustangs, and Slowvettes are struggling rides. Dont waste your cash on them. |
Mr ChainSawOnSteroids. How you doin. The motor needed no run in. Everyone runs them in I buy a motor pull it apart or not I don't run them in. I just give them hell.
Mind you that it does last as long, but it does what I want it to. And that's win races. (btw I got money to spend on rotary) https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png |

Mr. RX7 S7 i find it hard to believe that any word coming from your direction is actual truth.
I just don't believe you! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub..._DIR#>/dry.png |

To ChainSawOnSteroids.
There are people that have seen my car and even raced it. We don't have to bulls@*t about anything. Are you jealous that my car is fast ??? It's not worth the complications that your making just ask Rotor Eater. Were all diferrent and we do things different. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683683.gif |
