Bottom line is if you respect a VL Turbo for what it is you deserve to own 1,If not and you own A VL saying Skyline GTR will flogg it etc well go buy a Skyline join up on a Skyline forum because this forum is only VL Turbo discussion forum simple. So true. I dont mind Skylines but something about a VLT gives me shivers up my spine that a Skyline doesnt. I agree with atmo bt1 I would rather a tough VL over a Skyline.If I wanted a track car I would get a Skyline if I wanted something with class I would get a gold VLCT on a set of VX GTSs.

go the commodores

up the skylines

Go the motorised wheel chairs. lol Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

go the yearly bus pass!

You would be able to afford all that in 2 weeks pay Mate you will earn more respect around here by doin what your saying your going to do rather than just talking bout it. Im not havin a go at ya in my opinion you would have been better engineering ur old car and goin nuts on that. Either way which ever way you go it will cost you a small packet Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

wouldnt it cost more for a 10second gtr than a vl?

Correct

hey VIPCALAIS do you own [VIPVLT] if so i always see it out the front of a servo on the main road out belmont way way, is that your car?

Any luck on the job?

what about a sleeper nugget? just spend heaps on the engine/driveline and just keep stock wheels, stock paint etc. would get less attention from the coppers anyway

hey doesnt a vl use a ricer engine aneway, so either way there both nice cars,

i do believe for the times there doing, the 4 wheel drive does help alot, we are talking that they are only .4 of a second faster than a none tubbed vl car so i don't see it being a biggy alot new a car with alot more tech in it 4 wheel drive for one but how many street driving every day 8 second 9 second or even 10 second gtr's do u see in Australia then how many 9, 10 second vl's do u see? i have been doing my car up for years now, and i want it in the 10's that will do me, that's way fast enough!
