Help with BA fan boy
Hi guys,
I have recently purchased a VZ and seem to be taking alot of 'crap' from one of the Ford fan boys that I work with...
He owns a BA & has been rubishing my VZ all week.
Apparently the engine is low budget...
Apparently there is no power...
Apparently same suspension system from 1989...
And many other things!
Now I dont normally get involved in these games. But any fun that I can pick at the BA would be appreciated! Apparently the VZ is a 'horrible motor car'....!
Tells it like it is.
Apparently they outsold the BA by miles. Apparently the BA wagon has cart springs in the rear that date back to the 60's etc etc etc. That said the BA is a nice car and does it's intended job very well. I wouldn't get drawn into some other wankers insecurities when he needs to dis other peoples cars.Originally Posted by Indy_387

Customize your life.
BA = Big Arse.
BA = Bisexual Adult.
Truth is you probably get better econemy then he does, Brothers BA was getting 15-17l/100 easy.
Just tell him when fords are in 2nd place on the sales chart ahead of the corolla lol, Come back and see me.
Both have 4 speed auto's, IRS, Diff's, one has a tailshaft that isn't limited because it will snap, Both have suspensions, And 5 seats. What's the big deal?. Both have Brakes but only one warps them after 5,000km
Just tell this bloke to grow the **** up and stop this BS little child. Holdens are so **** that there parents drive them lol

Hey boys leave the BAs alone i have one too.
The way i see it, fords are better in the 6's dept, but cant match holden in the V8 dept...BOSS is no match for LS1/LS2...i bought my BA because it had everything i wanted and handles alot better than the holden equivalent IMO...still think sometimes how i should have bought that VX calais international instead...ah well...
If u want ammo agains the BA's , mention the many rust problems they have, autos carking it at 150,000, power steering shudder, handbrake problems(myin my case basically non existent) and also the radiator cores in them colapsing and mixing coolant into trans...also i agree with the brakes comment, as soon as i bought mine the brakes started warping...i gots slotted DBA's now , so problem gone and pulls up much better, ABS has to actually work now...

Holdens are a drivers car, ford's arnt what they used to be, when the EA's came out anthing after that failed, sure the BA gained some sales, but they arnt as exciting as a Holden and never will be.
Got Evo?
VZs motor is a pig. manual trans is a pig.

i can agree about the auto transmission.. but how is an ls1 a pig... they go all right...
As for fords... well they don't appeal to me at all. Ok i lied, the XR6 turbo is ok, goes well but at the end of the day it is still a ford. They don't look as good as holdens and the quality just isn't there. Also i think the utes look like sh*t, especially the FPV ute... it looks like it has been slapped together (http://www.autoclub.com.au/uploaded_...007-799043.jpg).. just look at all the seperate pieces.. plus it is too chunky and plain ugly.
Plus i think the amount of holden v8 sales compared with xr8 sales just goes to show that holdens are killing it... you don't see many fpv GT's/GT-P's or xr8's on the road.

Thats Dr to you.....
No, he is not correct about the suspension dating from 1989.
Components of the front suspension can be found in the VB (well according to Motor mag anyway)!
Projecting
Ahh just ignore him..
Sleep with his wife/gf if you want to do anything - that'll teach him haha
Got Evo?
Nothing wrong with an LS1, i love mine. Im refering to the alloytec anchors.
The Only 6sp VZ Wagon
i dont find the alloytec to bad, you just need to know how to use the throttle properly and it will lump along and throw you around, stabbing, flooring the pedal does nothing for it and the computer says a big no no and reduces the power of it,
just tell the fool that his motor origins are 30-40 years old and his ba is a big overweight, over balanced boat ancor
remember the ba weighs just short of 1700kg and the vz is 1560kg, - thats xt to executive btw

yer the suspension is virtually the same front end...just irs change on the rear.
The Only 6sp VZ Wagon
on the vz, vy and vx they started using ball joint sway bar link pins, so its not all the same

just tell him in these words " go **** yourself"

what a faggot id be into him its all the ford boys have got on us in terms of decent models is the ba just look at all ford models prior utter pieces of **** that look like **** and so now their happy little fairies with their 1 model and he doesnt know **** low budget no power and whatever else he said what a vagina id take him for a drive in my vz exec and hed **** his pants iv done it before to other people i love vz's beatiful cars
sleek_vp
man i dont understand why people bag the alloytech its an awesome engine got heaps of balls great torque great fuel economy best iv got was 750km to a tank highway driving and arouond 500 for everyday and its been a great car only thing that is annoying is it takes 7.5ltrs of oil but thats what you get with a quad cam
VZ's are fine, just don't get in a race with BA that's all
Donating Member
Are you talking v6 or v8?VZ's are fine, just don't get in a race with BA that's all
Aren't we talking about a Alloytec here? as if you would compare a BA to a V8 VZ
The one piece on the Wagons are limitted to 180k. The two piece is much better.one has a tailshaft that isn't limited because it will snap
As for the fanboy, dont worry about him. He's obviously insecure and need to feel better then ya. Kinda like the guys that say yeah that *insert model here* is good but its a *insert brand here*.
