Yeah cos i'm dumb enough to race 5.7L with a N/A RB30. And inferiority complex....riiiiiiiight. you must be a phsyc student from way back huh. And when so many people on here go on and on about LS1's it leaves the impression that nothing else is up to scratch.

Its only natural for owners to talk about their cars. If theres so many ppl on here talking them up it must mean theres losts of ls1 owners here. If people cant talk up their ls1 powered rides on a commodore forum where are they supposed to do it?

I'm only 27 but i love the older cars. either an australian charger or an american dodge, trans-am, or corvette. Even an old monaro. i do like the old XC coupe. i'd definately love a rod. The big chrysler coupes and the old fords make great rods. MMMMMM :dance:

I'm with you on that one, i love older cars but they'd cost me an arm n a leg :cry:


whats the quickest stock V8 commodore?

Not really. shop around. parts aren't that expensive either depending on make of car and engine type and size. a bloke out my way bought about 10 old cars, from an old lady who's husband died, for about $10k - $20k and one of the cars was worth $100k. turned out there was an XY Phase 3 in there on blocks. Plus 5 other top notch ones and a few others.

there aren't many people(especially old ladies) who own cars that don't know what to do with them out here in Sydney, so it's harder for me
