There a nice car, i dunno how people can bag em!

there a comfy car, and have alot of balls, they only need a tweak and they can be very quick..

for reliabilty there awesome as long as you look after it. Its a personal choice, so pick what YOU want. Turbos have a big novelty Ls1's are just sheer grunt and balls.

i think its a personal thing and evryone has different taste, but id keep the skyline 4 sure

yeah def a personal thing....(probably gonna get flamed), but after the skyline it will be back to the 4 cylinder class for me again. Others have said, after driving a 6, you cant go back to a 4, and after driving an 8, you cant go back to a 6 - probably true. But the overall cost of living is getting higher every year, makes me wonder how I would be able to afford a fast car after the r33..... :thumbsup:

forgot to add: R33GOD - if everything works out in terms of running costs etc - then go for it.

about 2 months ago the same thought flashed across my head..

keep driving a modded 15+year old car and pour money into keeping it running

or

get a newer car with no mods, no cop hassles, newer, more luxurious etc. etc.

...its a logical move as you get older

that's why i got a V35 350GT.. its still a skyline, handles awesome, and, yes, its as powerful as my R32 GTSt.. its amazing to drive and surprisingly got quite a lot of balls for a NA V6.. drive one and you will put a deposit down i guarantee it :thumbsup:

Do some research on VT II-VX piston slap damage. The first versions of LS1 had faults and needed to be rebuild, sometimes more han once. It was a bit of nuisance when they were under new car warranty but now they are no longer covered. It will come out of your pocket. Not all early LS1s had this fault but there were enough...

Ls1 does go hard, Ive driven a VX LS1 ute and it flew, stock.

Their priced around 25-30 grand now... more if you want a clean one. So I dont think you will lose much money if you want to sell it a year or two down the line.

I used to be into Holdens a while ago until I discovered imports.

i love my skyline, looks good, goes great but im thinkin of changing cause i spend too much money on it, and the clubby, less attention from the cops. i was going to buy a bmw but there just crap..and no guts lol
If you are into modding, you will not stop if you but the HSV. lol Go to ls1 forums and youll see lol

i work for holden and have for a while, i have driven basically all of them including most of the VE HSV range, for what it's worth i really dont rate them. Handling is nothing like a jap car and they are really not fuel efficent. i used to have a twin turbo supra and i have been in alot of GTR's and you cant beat these as a complete package. handle well are quick and better on fuel. It just depends what you want but i suggest you take them for a test drive before you make your decision, then you will know what i mean.

The clubsport is good in a straight line torquey down low but just not exciting to drive.
