Hi GUys,

I nearly sold my Turbo 4 (old 944 porsche) after getting aload of this audio. Apparently it's leaked from holden's ad agency and is from the new VE ute.

why do i see this thread being closed soon?

anyway, i reakon the falcons have always sounded better than the commodores. they always have. especially in stock form. if you look at every comparison done in the past 15 years and they all say the ford v8 sounds much beefier. the holdens didn't start to sound good till the gen3, but i still like henry's donk. similar power from a smaller motor.

Hey all you turbo drivers, what sounds better? The turbo's you all have or something you chose not to buy?

er 1 turbo please

edit: IBTL :)

O.o engine noise? V8's hands down.. Even a crap 8 with a nice set of extractors and a decent carby will sound mean, when we're talking a tuned 8 they sound heaps better... The whoosh turbo cars have is cool but it is pretty queer when it's louder than your under-bonnet engine noise and almost louder than your exhaust (which is generally pretty droney and boring anyway) ._.

That's my opinion anyway.. I reckon my GTR sounds pretty girly.. Also that car thing up the top sounded crap, sounded alright till like 3k rpm then it sounded like a 4 lol could just be the headphones though

    • Once the belt slips it can very easily cause a cascade that encourages more belt slip. Check the pulleys carefully and see if the grooves have cupped. If it has it's time to replace the pulleys. If the rubber has glazed you also need to replace it. Shouldn't be shiny. From the factory there's a lot of exposed fibers(?) on a v-belt that will go away as it's broken in but some should still remain visible without sticking out significantly like a new belt. I went through this on my dad's Camry recently. It would keep slipping even after setting the tension higher, only solution was a new belt.
    • Belt polished and/or pulley(s) glazed. Rub pulleys with sandpaper, replace belt.
    • I've also got a quick jack. I would never get under my car again without using it.  While it might be quicker to use a jack and stands, it is such a quality of life improvement that I wouldn't have it any other way now.  How much slower the quick jack is to setup will be based on your circumstances. Can you leave the jack rails on each side of the garage? Can you leave the hydraulic lines attached? etc.  If you can drive the car into the garage and simply push the jacking rail thingos under the car into place, it is super quick to setup and use. But if you have to pull the pump unit out of storage, attach the hydraulic lines, wheel out the lifting rail thingos.... yeah takes a bit of time. Having said that, I would still prefer that to using a jack and stands lol. 
    • Sydney Tools have them for ~$3400. More than the Quick Lifts but these seem better. https://sydneytools.com.au/product/quickjack-7000tl208240v-5175642-7000lb-110220v-portable-light-duty-truck-and-passenger-car-lift-system
