    Default A bit ridiculous

    Was browsing ebay and came across this vx ss. If you scoll through take particular notice on "does 0 - 100 in less than 4 seconds" & "$5000 pacemaker extractors" Thats as fast as a bloody supercar and those extractors must be made of gold, I couldnt help myself but laugh!!

    I wonder if it's someone off another Commodore related site? Saw an old thread on there where people were saying what they had seen off in VL Turbos. Worked WRX, Evo, Ferraris, etc had all been dispatched with ease apparently. Made me
    Whoever said 'There is no substitute for cubes' had obviously never heard of Jet power

    the thing that made me laugh was he reconed it is more powerful than a corvette c06. those things weigh 1100kgs and come stock with 600 horse power at the wheels.

    Monaro's did come with a different tune than an SS of the same series if memory serves, well the last series did anyway, it wasn't 12Kw's more than a VX though so yeah, obviously the dude's on drugs. As for 4 seconds 0-100, If minor mods like that could make an LS1 that fast I'd take out a bank loan tomorrow and go buy a VT!
