Taming your Commodore

hahahaha perfect timing mayt.

I thought for a second it was gonna be about Commodore 64's

haha, now there is real ultimate power.

so true,

I bit. I thought it this thread was about Commodore 64's too.

There are 10 kinds of people in the world: those who understand binary code and those who don't. (I don't...except I know "10" means "2" in binary code.)

All of those ticked. What's next?

I don't get it. :dunno: Must be an Aussie thing.

psst...they're like ricers with honda civic DX's :p

yeah, early commodores were like the original ricer here, I'll try and scrape up a few pics


----ed------

here's a VL Walkinshaw (first model of the holden HSV's)

That's the basic model. You see pimped up versions of these around, although this car in the the pic is original restore, people get normal VL's and add the wing, and body kits to replicate the walky (as only a few hundred were made in 1988)

note: these are the commodore series, but it's shaped around the same model.



----------edit2---------

I mentioned about people pimping them up, well

that's not an original, it started life as a normal VL

LOL, And the wing does what, exactly?

Yeah well the difference with ricers here

is they atleast have some balls behind the looks

The vl commodores come stock with RB30's witch are bloody quicker then those civics going around. Plus their RWD.

yeah its rear wheel drive so when they pull the full sik line locks with their rooted borg warner diff it leaves one lame arse line.
and its not just VL's that cop the rice treatment..
god knows how many VN's ive seen that are pretending to be VY clubsports. with the clapped out buick V6's
(if you want a fake clubsport kit, or want to know what im raving about go to www.cougarbodystyling.com.au)
laters, WIDE :aus:

Looks a lot like a Mustang of the same era. Forgive my ignorance, but are they 'related' in any way?

nope...ones a ford...the other is GM-holden. i dont take any insult to it...i dont really like commodores....

HAHAHA!!!!!!!!!
So bloody true!!!!!
This guy at the drags on the weekend crashed his VL turbo, we got it on tape, he kicks the calder hire helmet 5 metres!!!
kappa hat incredibly true!

I thought for a second it was gonna be about Commodore 64's

Yeah, me too. Damn those rocked!!! Remember Shinobi or Ghostbusters?

Oh my God that car looks like a Izuzu Stylus on crack...the fin looks like a TV tray.. :eek7:

this man speeks the truth

try a 5.0 litre V8 stock

^yeah the 5L v8 as well is very tuner friendly..

a fav of the vl turbo owners is turboing the rb30e, then adding the rb25head..

Its the boxy falcon drivers that drive me nuts

I have no idea what you just said, but it sounds cool.
