They're better off as boat anchors pave, or is that what you're already using yours for?

hahahah cainer wins.
f*** dude wake upto yourself... my sx 4age corolla will handle better and still keep upto your s***box if not beat it. you're spending all this money on your s***box trying to make it go faster and handle better... yet its still a family car. Just buy a real sportish car like a 180sx or something to save yourself all the time and money. |

As much as i think both skylines and VLs are boats,
I do respect the RB30. Any motor that is fairly technically advanced for its day, (ie not carby fed pushrod) and is able to do 300,000K+ with very little work, i respect. I respect the 4A-GE for the same reason. High advancement for the day, high power for its size and high reliability, able to do 300,000k+. I don't think this stupid VW motor will be able to do big kays. I dont forsee that with that amount of pressure being put on it, it will be long lasting or reliable. |

diesels are solid engines. its a pity they are slow as s***.jaw-droppingly clueless put down that june '85 edition of wheels and join us in 2006 where 3rd generation common rail diesels have long-shed the outdated stigma you're clinging to. This might be a good place for you to start |

trying to say a vl is s*** compared to a pintara is like saying a datsun 120y is awesome compared to a 1980 ford laser. or like saying woodridge is better then kingston.
do u get the drift ? is 120hp enough for that ? |

What's impressive is that everything you said just then was wrong.
How's those 100,000 dead US soldiers thing panning out for you? Found anyone stupid enough apart from your brother to believe it yet? brb, watching live feed of US soldiers committing suicide on the walls of Baghdad. |
