EF Falcon takeoff

EF Falcon Revs

Maybe its just me but I reckon it sort of does high up in the revs.

They do share the same engine layout afterall. :P

I think its a pretty nice car being 12 years old and nearly stock except for the exhaust system. (I know the owner)

lol sound like youve got a bomb in your engine bay :P tick tick tick tick... sure its not a commodore? lol their v6s love to tick

Hahah yeah I think the lifters really need to be replaced!

I think its just wear and tear over time, not to mention excessive stress on the motor from floggin it all the time. :D

A bit like a WRX, Skylines are unique in all aspects... after like 5000 RPM's - the Skyline roars like a Godzilla - nothing else can come close.

well i dont know about that, im sure sure mr 599 GTB might have to say something about that....

hehe no but i know where your comming from, the induction noise and the sound of an Rb through a good exhuast sounds IMO the closest thing to a jet from the outside.

at a motorkana in town there was a natro r33, and it sounded heaps like a falcon.

at low rpm a magna with a sports exhaust and cannon sounds a bit like a skyline.

all the natro skylines i've heard sound like aussie fords, but none of the turbos.

      Yes, but 2 things of the top of my head, 1. Legalities of nitrous on a street car. 2. No chop chop. I fully understand that there's much cheaper ways to make power, and whilst a wet 50 shot is fairly cheap to install, bottle fills are expensive, and bottles always need to be refilled, and nitrous also has its own inherent issues with reliability, and tuning, from my experience of others using nitrous, it doesn't take alot to lunch a engine real quick if something goes slightly wrong when spraying, if I wanted a big chunk of additional powers, a spooly boy would make alot more sense, disregarding the additional engineering, supporting mods and other logistical issues of sticking a spooly boy on a car that came naturally aspirated from factory  In the end I'm not racing for sheep stations, and I don't really care if people make more power, or are faster than me, or spend less, or more than me, the only thing the car needs to do is drive around and make me smile, which it is doing now Really, I just want a shiny new intake to look at when I'm cleaning the engine bay, and of course, some more induction doorts, and maybe even that 5kw for that elusive 200hp cherry on top that I might get If the FAB9 intake plenum, TB and air filter box thing doesn't eventuate for whatever reason, Plasmaman do one, not as fancy looking, and a fair chunk of more cash is required when including the TB and other bits and pieces that are required to install it, but, it is another option that is available to me if FAB9 one does fall down (but I really, really.....really, want the FAB9 one though) TL;DR. You want what you want
