Why does the VN sound like a vacuum cleaner?

[losh1971]

Decent Wertiem will have 3x as much suction if you get the $500 one. We had two Dysons at work and the wife has one. My old Electrolux has better suction. Only saving grace with a Dyson is they are fairly robust.

Profile pic sitting in a commodore most likely a VN. Is that your missus ? maybe she brought a vacume and that noise your hearing is her cleaning the house. .

I thought it was the 'missus' asking the question lol. If you want ya VN to sound like a vacuum cleaner just take the whole air intake of at the TB seems to scream from sucking in air

If its a V8 it makes a pulsing roar. This was a cheap and popular modification with young hoons in the early 70's.

@Brettly-2008 I put the stock filter on it and it still made **** loads of noise

Now the only theory i have come up with, is the TB makes the noise... because i had the whole intake upto the TB off and it was noisy af
Theory is, the stock filter muffles that sound

@nocrust That is me, in a Vz Crewman *i think* , and you are probably right... my missus did have a new vacuum then so maybe

If you want your dyson to suck more, just put a ford sticker on it

Also, love how the thread changed to talkin about frozen water pipes and vacuum cleaners

I'm in the northern suburbs close to Lee Point and Buffalo Creek
Never been to the Friday night meets at fishermans wharf, been meaning to go and check it out for a while just never got around to it.
Have seen pics of the meets down there and seen a few of the cars around town....some of the cars that get down there are awesome and a real credit to their owners.

She looks good....Nice to see some pics of the old girl
It's kind of odd at first to look at those pics on a nation wide forum knowing where most of them were actually taken
I can't remember seeing any other pics on the forum that were taken around Darwin
