theres an 07 with 4500kms for 49driveaway and an 08 with 12000kms and full lether for 52k driveaway id say the 08 is better value but i rkn you'd get more discount on the 07 because its an 07 :unsure:

auto/manual? i have driven both in the ssv prefer the auto for everyday

nah most agents drive bmws/lexus/merc/audi well the decent ones the average ones drive mazda's/honda's etc

i just need something suitable for towing and i dont see myself in a 4x4 could get a lexus gs430 4.3ltr v8 would probably do the job but not sold on teh look of em

i rkn ve's look tits.

Only said coz my mate's brother drives one, and I've seen another agent cruising round in one round here..

I went to band camp once....No wild stories to tell though :(

What happened billy? Was that u who got airlifted from floods?

I went caving, popped out half way in... Thought I'd be hardcore and keep going but it popped out again soo I tied it up and didn't use it the rest of the time! Was a mission to get out!!

yeh thats what i was thinking would be the case but there is a fair price difference from the 6ltr to the 6.2ltr..

Driven both, you might notice a slight difference in 2nd gear but nothing major.

LS2 + exhaust and you have the LS3 beat. I'd still go the LS3 though just cos newer and moar engine

VE clubsport must be the real estate agent car of choice

seems more like the soccer mum/milf car of choice around here

I Fkn hated school camps never did that shot

Yeh I dunno Dezz they are good cars k rkn

Just went for a drive in my mates brothers Clubsport GXP or GSP or whatever the f**k it's called....not too impressive for what thy cost..

gxp is pox no offence but i duno how they convinced anyone to buy it its below a clubsport but above an ss.

its fail written all over it. looks like shite without spoiler an shit

*coulnt afford a clubsport (real hsv) didnt want a ss like a pleb so i got the ghey spec in the middle*

claimed 0-100 of 4.9 seconds for the gxp aint that bad for a 60k car. not many cars leave showroom floor doing that kind of figure i wouldnt think for under 100k.

shame it still looks shit doesnt even have hsv tail LED taillights

lol yeah he was trying to explain where it fits in the Holden lineup...Average either way imo...Interior is nothing special, wheels look shit house etc...performance wasn't really impressing me either for so much $

I might be biased though, I was always a Ford man, but these days I can't see myself buying anything other than a Skyline/GTR etc...

the new ford supercharged engine is insane however i just hate the look of ford loved BA but they lost me after that.

yeh gxp is shit but i dunno man 0-100 in 5secs for a daily car that will run forever no headaches like a skyline for example is pretty good imo.

dunno havent been inside a gxp but the clubbys and stuff arent to bad. Plus your getting a heck of an engine, brake setup etc so i spose the money is in things you dont see so easily

Suitable daily driver you can tow and comfortably carry 4 passengers with / performance car when you need it to be = appeal to GXP. Seems to be a bit of an all rounder. I see the appeal to it because I would use it for all these things, but can see how people don't find it appealing.

at least the R8 get lights to separate it from the rest of the lineup...

I'm not saying it wasn't powerful etc, but when you've driven a car with power and a more sporty feel, I guess it's harder to be impressed. Get the Force 6 or whatever they're calling it these days, luxury and performance all in one. The FG's look crazy if done right

    • I mean yes, if you're starting from scratch on an unknown engine yes you don't need to be doing all kinds of math in the background but if you're doing relatively minor changes like AFM + injectors + boost up with some aftermarket turbos it takes quite a bit of math if you want to do something like maintain OEM fuel + timing tables but compressed and then a bit more load scale up top. I think I've spent too much time working on big engineering nightmares though so I'm a big fan of trying to constrain the scope of whatever work I'm doing as much as possible and trying to get it right before moving on. For example, a local owner just did the usual E85 + single turbo conversion to his R32 GTR and nearly burned his car to the ground doing some spirited driving up the local mountains. Turbine is unshielded and too close to the hood insulation. It's tough to balance "just get the project done" and "seemingly small details can cause massive setbacks I'm not willing to deal with".
    • No idea about Neil's steering wheel, but I have the same behaviour in the Stagea. I doubt it has ever been messed with so might be normal. Indicating to turn right at a roundabout and correcting even a little bit to the left to go around will cancel the indicator. Never considered it an issue other than it being a bit odd.
    • Does anyone know if this is off centered? Looks like it, when I indicate to go right, but turn my steering wheel slightly left it cancels (was always like that even before I started messing around with it) was wondering if anyone else has the same issue?
    • Nothing photo worthy since last update, lots of little plumbing bits for the AAC/Cold start valves, and unfortunately I still need another couple of parts for the brake booster line and the AAC into the plenum. Otherwise it all looks good to start up engine wise, onto checking the electrics/interior
    • Good news mate, plenty of spares available 5:40
