should see the look on the v8 owners face when i do go past them, just realising it was a 6 thats walked past them
The look on their faces is the realisation of the fact that you spent all your money to run a 13 with your car sounding like a canary with the flu.

Almost genuine VT "S" + VZ "SS" Red Ute + Vk V8
nothing beats a v8.
a super 6 might be faster in the end, but it's the pure joy of the v8, "yes, i have a v8"... those are the words i'd love to say.....

Love the sound of a turbo V6/8, but I'm leaning more towards 4 bangers as they are more fun to drive *runs away*

lol most tuned LS1's are running this with NO BOLT ONS.

I know again which id prefer. Show me a drivable holden turbo 6 running sub 11's.


Oh and show me the LEGAL emissions setup on this :)

ahh look at SC mag september 06 with a VR/VS twin turbo v6 running inder 10's, i can't remember the exact time. its street driveable, its just amusing to see you v8's owners get all bent out of shape when something offers competition.

Plenty of street driveable 10 second v8s mate.;)

Best thing is most of them aren't forced either.:)

Show me a N/A Holden V6 that runs faster than a 13. Most 6s are nothing, without turbos.

lol thats what i was going to say, you just can't beat the V8!

it's like al the skylines, supras etc, what are they without the turbo! nothing. give me a bloody turbo and we'll see how many 6's can keep up.

there's nothing like waking up in the morning feeling all crappy and woeful, then jumping in my V8 turning they key and seeing a mighty big smile creep across as i listen to that beautiful tuned and zorsted V8 rumble of my lil 5L...:bow: :D

Well I'm not, as I don't own either.;)

Fact is though, most 6s would get stomped on if it wasn't for forced induction.

The Holden V6s are nothing, without forced induction, just like the RB30E.

I have 2 mates with VS Berlinas, one with a Ecotec V6 and the other a 5L, and guess which had more balls?:)
