Um it's not Holden who build these engines, it's GM in the states. The biggest engine Holden has ever made, was the 5L 304. (Though a 5.7 stroker was available for the VS GTS-R)

Remember it's got a Holden badge. He thinks every Holden is crap. Probably never had any real experience either, other than riding shotgun in a mate's worn out VP V6 for 5 minutes. Never liked him, or his opinions.

So f**king what? God I'm sick of people using this f**king argument. Pushrods aren't 1960s technology. It's late 1800s/early 1900s, and look so is OHC/DOHC., but that's alright isnt it? What's wrong with pushrods anyway?

I've always been a V8 kind of person. Nothing wrong with Turbos though, but really most people from both sides are as bad as eachother. "Jap crap" "Bogan V8" Well the war will never end. Some think Turbos are superior, some think V8s are superior. No right, or wrong as far as I'm concerned. Just drive what you drive, and be interested in what you want. F*** what anyone else thinks. I had a huge problem with other peoples' tastes affecting mine, but I don't let that sink into my head now.

On that subject DOHC can be classed as dinosaur technology aswell, having been around for almost 100 years. It's just most Jap sports cars adopted it later on, giving the false impression that it's newer. Although I can't see anything wrong with pushrods. GM actually had a DOHC V8 back in the early 90s for the Corvette, but it apparently turned out to be a flop, so they switched back.

Exactly. The bloody things weigh over 1800Kg, and can pull a 13 from factory. That's quite fast for something that's essentially built from a family car. Commodores get such a bad wrap. They're really not that bad.

Not only that, but the engine is from GM and what is Holden apart of again? GM. Makes sense really. If they have the engines available, why not?

Hahahaha now that's funny. Reasonable job to own a Skyline? Skylines aren't that expensive, unless it's something like a GTR. I'm sorry, but if you think you need a reasonable job to afford a average Skyline please jump off a cliff, and make sure you land head first on the rocks below. I have also never heard of anyone saying you need to be classy enough to own a Skyline. God maybe you should buy a Merc or something.

No, it sounds like you hate the people more than the actual cars. Yes there are "scumbags" that drive Holdens, but there are "scumbags" that drive Imports too. In most cases are actually worse.

It's nice to see someone who doesn't carry the typical "Holdens are shit" attitude, for a change.

I've been thinking to changing it to best 6 cylinder engine never built, as I love Holden V8s. Might do that now actually.

I think I just heard something, must've been the sound of my point flying over your head.

Probably because I like the VL? Infact I don't hate Nissan (Why the f**k else would I say the RB30 is the best engine Holden never built under my Av?) I'm just in the mood, for a stir.

Well if every manufacturer got it right the first time, than we would have no reason to discuss recalls would we? But the fact is it does happen. I wonder what the reaction would be if this happened to Nissan? Doubt it would though, because Nissans are the greatest cars ever built, that never have any problems. *cough*

That's the reason for the recall, so they can fix it. Or would you much rather hear of people dieing, because their V6 VE caught fire as a result of the faulty fuel line?
