He will probably be charged the $5000 escess which is due on a test drive.

Why the fu(k would a dealership allow a 19 year old to drive a car like that is beyond me anyway.

Somebody should send this to all medias and inform them of the reckless driving.....

But that will still incriminate all those young drivers who think they are good enough to drive high powered cars on their Ps.

BASS OUT

Just got back on here: RB30-POWER, wot ali said goes 4 me x 2. In addition, look at price differences. I'd stack $50k of R33 GTR against $50k of anything HSV offer, if they even have anything for that price. Even $95-$100k of HSV would be pushing it's luck to match the GTR, and even then only in a straight line. Remember corners?

You skyline drivers are so narrow minded.

HSVs are not slow.

you have to compait cars stock.

A stock R33 GTS-t runs

($25000)

0-100 in 6.95 seconds

0 - 160 in 15 seconds

400 m in 14.5 @ 157kph (High performance imports mag)

A stock 297kw LS2 clubsport runs

($67000)

0-100 in 4.99 sec

0 - 160kph in 11.85 seconds

400m in 13.01 seconds @ 178kph (motor magazine

(have seen slower times but these were motors quickest) )

R33 GTR stock

($100,000 new)

0-100 in 5 flat

0 - 160 in 12 seconds

400m in 13.3 seconds @167kph (High performance imports mag)

Now im a true HSV/Holden fan. But ill give credit to a good car.

The GTR is a good car. It will beat a HSV from standstill. But... stock. A LS2 HSV is

quicker than a Stock R34 GTR from a roll.... or after 60 kph

Stock R34 GTR 100 - 200kph in 11.5 seconds (British motormag)

VT GTS 300kw(brit version GEN III) in 10.0 seconds

Below. You can see GTRs 4WD advantage from 0 - 60kph

R33 GTR 0 - 60kph = 2.5 seconds (British car mag)

Clubsport R8 0 - 60 = 2.7 seconds (Motor)

But when tracktion is no longer an issue you can see the rolling performance of the clubsport

R33 GTR 60 - 100kph = 2.5 seconds (British car mag)

Clubsport R8 60 - 100kph = 2.3 seconds (Motor)

And more so up top

GTR 100 - 160 = 8 seconds (Brit car mag)

Clubsport 100 - 160 = 6.75 seconds (motor)

LS2 will obviously be alot quicker due to better top end breathing and high torque.

Now lets compair the The stock 297kw Clubsport with a stock GTS-t

A stock R33 GTS-t runs

0-100 in 6.95 seconds

0 - 160 in 14.2 seconds

400 m in 14.5 @ 157kph

A stock 297kw LS2 clubsport runs

0-100 in 4.99 sec

0 - 160kph in 11.85 seconds

400m in 13.01 seconds

A stock 297kw LS2 clubsport runs (On a bad day)

0-100 in 5.5 sec

0 - 160kph in 12.2 seconds

400m in 13.55 seconds

Now which car looks slow?

You cannot compair a stock car with a modified car.

Lets compair 2 equally, lightly modded GTS-t and HSV

225Rwkw GTS-T (60rwkw more than standard)

400m in 12.98 @ 107mph

287Rwkw LS2 Clubsport (60rwkw more than standard)

12.48 @ 113.7 mph

It apears that an equally worked Clubsport is still faster than the GTS-t with high MPH, which means top end wise.... the clubsport is pulling away from the GTS-t

My point is... stock bagging out HSVs saying there slow... cause obviously there not.

Yes there are 300rwkw GTS-ts..... but u cant compair it to a stock Clubsport... and then say its slow. Cause a stock Clubby will chew a stock Skyline.

Apparently he's going to be screwed, and rightly so, the police took him away within 15 minutes.

He was swerving erratically through traffic before that happened.

The HSVs have got the LS2 don't they? 6.0L V8 297 kw?

Don't they get the LS6 soon? The 7.0l V8? Strange thing about that one is it revs to 7K on the Corvette.

Is the LS6 a 7L v8, sorry but i dont really follow the corvettes or performance cars in usa.

How much worse will the fuel economy be i wonder considering in the motor magazine they claim the hsv r8 with the ls2 6L to suck down 29.5L/100km. Im sorry but i dont think i would be able to live with that sort of fuel economy, too much money wasted on petrol.

skylinekiller = ban

Why?

he is entitled to his opinion, just as you are.

I must say that I am sick of hearing B.S about stock GTST's taking down faster cars.

But by the same token when I am on the LS1 forums I am sick of hearing the B.S of stock HSV's taking down GT-R's and Porsches, both camps can be as bad as each other.

Me, I like all cars and can respect them for what they really are.

mate, when the hell did i say hsv's are slow. So maybe you should direct your comments at those who said they were, not generalise.

If you cant then go back to you holden forums if you are such a huge fan.

    • Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.
    • I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it
    • If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣
    • I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
    • Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
