The Old School JDM picture thread.

Thanks. I'm a 27 year-old curmudgeon who is drunk most of the time, so I have a habit of ranting quite a bit.

What the FUCK was Holden thinking, slotting in a non turbo RB20 between the struts of the VL!?!?!

The Rb30 is a great motor if you chuck on a '26 head, but man, I think at this stage of the game i'd prefer a 2jz powered 'line. Possibly like this:

I don't know. They must have been drinking bong water that a bunch of retards had been spitting in.

The 25 head can be made just as good as the 26 head (with time and money) and is how more people are going over here when building off-their-tits 3.0L DOHC turbo RB motors.

A JZ would definitely be my pick, though (or a turbo LSx - know a bloke with a turbo LS1 GT-R and its way better than quite a few of the RB26s I've driven)

Obviously never had the pleasure of driving the 202 ha.
It was a decent motor in mid eighties.

[Kershaw]

R32, IMO. But the DR30 was pretty rad.

Ha sure have, mate has an EH Premier wagon with a 202 in it :D

R31's!

Man Josh you check Speedhunters more than I do!

[Iain]

I still wonder about whether or not I should have bought the R31 GTS-X with a T51R-fed RB26 in it. Was $AUD15k at the time but I figured I probably wouldn't have to make more than one weekly payment on it due to being dead in the car after it wrapped around a tree as soon as it came on boost in the wet.

Those R31 chassis are pretty damn bad - R32 is sooo much better from a handling/braking/rigidity point of view.

I don't really like the Dr30s as much.

Make a video of you doing it while racing a VL BT1 and an EL with a windsor driven by some wogs
