Whats The Best Family Wagon?

[Cubes]

How are the Legnum for mods? At a guess it would have to make a solid 300kw at the wheels.

If $$ wasn't an issue I'd have to look at the new VE Sportswagon 6ltr and drop a couple of turbos on to it.

Joel, as I posted before, mods such as full exhaust, FMIC, boost control to 14psi , fuel pump and piggy back ECU (such as a haltec) will net you ~200 awkw. And this is from an owner of a Legnum, Sil80 with RB26 for circuit sprints & an R32 skyline on ozvr4 when asked about the whether to have an R32 or a legnum:

Seriously though, line your Skyline up against my Leggy (has around 180rwkw haven't had the minceptor properly tuned yet but it'll be very close to that) and i will beat you every time pretty much everywhere.

Don't bother asking the SAU guys what you should do, they'll all say keep the Skyline.

Having had turbo Nissans for a long time, the Leggy is a much more practical car. The Leggy/Galant will cost you more to operate and the parts taek a little longer to get, but overall, the Leggy is more of a businessmans EVO, in a wagon

ps a Leggy with around 180-200awkw is similar in pace to a line with ~ 260rwkw and yes i'm speaking from experience

Back to topic;

Anyone mentioned the Series 3 R31 Aussie Wagon? Plenty of em around, cheap to repair, easy to mod, blah blah...

And best thing is, since its a family you're putting in it, u won't go so ballistic when the kids trash it... unlike a stag or legnum or evo

True. But they may want something more modern and with all the goodies like airbags, ABS etc.

I see more R33's then anything these days. But alot more Stag's than R32's. Manly because most of the R32s are drift/track cops. Or as Kye said, broken.

[J - Rad]

Yeah, I think Ben's RS260 has pretty much made me wanna get one when I'm ready for kids. Actually, if it's still around when I'm ready.. I should just buy his.

thanks for all your advise and comments guys and girls.

this morning i picked up a 2000 model, silver, 4wd, sunroof, etc

only 38k on the clock. registered in SA allready so thats a bonus.

we have only done a 100k's so far so its early days but me and the family are most impressed so far.

now just to work out what to do with the muppet bus.

330 rwkw sedan anyone?

[Damo_R34]

is it a stag?

[Cubes]

All bets its a Legnum.

I've been quietly interested in one of these also.

Hows the economy Darren all though it doesn't really matter with fuel the way it is at the moment.

[gtrkiet]

i bet its a legnum

[Cubes]

Hrmm.. Wonder if you can shove the GTO 3ltr rods, crank and pistons in to one

[dangerman4]

theres lots of 4wd's as i have described.

could be a nissan patrol, cruiser etc,

could be a volvo

or yes even a legnum.

i just thought it would be fun to make everyone guess.

[SLED]

i'm guessing vegetable to

[dangerman4]

[chef_stagea]

[Cubes]

Nice.. So 4wd this time around?

[dangerman4]

but yes 4wd ftw.

it launches real well out of corners.
