OK..... as most of you know that vn vengeance finished its life as a 11.99 second car running at 114.76MPH as we speak now the car is being stripped and parts are being sold on ebay. The project of vengeance ended up money spent upto $20,000,I have wondered why no one out there has tryed to continue it. Now my plan is to either use my heavy ass vn berlina as the project car or buy an exec. But that i will have to decide in the very very near future. My plans is to get the V6 to run in the 9second mark with the amount of $40.000 tops will be spent on the project. So thought id put this on here just so u guys can keep an eye out on the project i am gonna undertake in the start of 08/12/07..... TO BE CONTINUE

Anyway I've been thinking about this post a bit more and I thought to myself why would you want to build a 9 second car when at the moment you have a car that probably runs a 16 flat. Even the difference between a 16 flat car and a high 13 second car would scare the pants off youand anything that runs quicker than a 12 is a serious handful that needs alot of respect on the street
reason why i dont wanna buy a vl with the $40g is because theres already lots of vls in that mark isnt there? My question is, is there any vn v6's running in the 9's if there isnt then i wanna try do it since ill have the cash by the 8/12 this year given to me. why tell ya how or from who but itll in my hands by that date, But right now im broke as anything. Its amazing ay how first minute you can be so broke than the next minute u neva know wat kinda cash comes at ya
There's a lot of VLs running 10s because VLs CAN run 10s. They're marginally lighter, and the RB30s respond very well to turbocharging - not to mention there are a whole host of experienced modifiers and parts for that motor. Still, my mate Mike who had a 10sec VL (before he launched a rod) had spent 50k plus on the damn thing.
9s in a VN? What you want is a 5.7l V8 and some inductionOh, and then you'll have to rebuild your driveline, 'cause drag slicks on a live rear trying to put down 700hp will eventually rip your control arms clean off the chassis.
Just some food for thought
We're not saying you'll never do it... just saying that afterwards, you'll be having some serious second thoughts. You know, like "wow, I could own half a house by now..."

mate, i reckon go for it, it hasnt been done before. just do it with the american buick 6, aussie one is ****.
what time did geoff whyte run. he holds the record for the fastest buick v6 in australia i think. he was trying to sell his wagon for about 13000. i think. why don't ya track him down and buy that. would be a good start. it was ebay ages ago..
have a look on youtube. i just had a quick look. but didn't find the video. but it is there somewhere..
hell, i'll be happy if i can get my VN exec to a mid 14 n/a, add a shot of giggle gas and make it a mid 13sec carthats fast enough for my daily driver
but i'll be happy to see how ya go![]()
