I don't think there is a need for all the swearing about it, your opionion of their workshop is obvious without it. I wouldn't believe the truth in any of the workshops running low 9's on stock bottom ends without hearing it from some of the people closer to them such as BIGPSI or PNP, who prob know as much as anybody about both cars. Either way, low 9's is quite an achievement on stock cast pistons. 6BOOST

agreed kyle. i only posted up that red r31 as i know for fact its a stock bottom end, tho it has been opened and freshened up, i only know this as i am close with one of the boys who part owns g-tech/pet who build the car, i dont actually know the owner of the car, tho ive been told hes known to drive that thing on the street, keen. lol theres gotta be some private unopened ones out there but? ill be pushing my n/a bottom end to its limits soon for a bit of amusement b4 i put a real motor in

I didn't mean I think you are lying and didn't read it, I meant that people post misinformation on the internet all the time, and unless is came from the workshop themself, I wouldn't hinge my judgement of someone on it. The VL community is especially bad for gossip and workshop hangers posting misinformation and starting arguments. I dare say that half the rivalry wouldn't exist without the forum talk that goes on. Cheers.............Kyle. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
