Non-Supra (Holden Commodore)
 
Ok first of all, I'll introduce myself.:)

Hello my name is Ryan, I'm 21 and live in Australia.

I love the Supras, but I don't know a great deal about them, so if I say something misleading please correct me.

Anyway this is my car.

It's a 1986 Holden VL Commodore (The Aussie guys will know this model off by heart)

It's got a 3.0L SOHC Nissan RB30E, and a Nissan MF5 5 Speed. (They came factory, with Nissan engines and drivetrains)

It's not a overly fast car, but it does a great job for me. Only bad thing about these cars, is they get a bad reputation by morons.

Thankyou guys, Ryan.:)

Wow, I just read an article in Nov. 2006's Super Street magazine and on page 77 they have a little insert titled "Holden Commodore GT-R?" It talks about the Commodore VL and how Holden (GM's Australian affiliate) sourced a motor from "shift-happy" Nissan. Initially it came equipped with the RB30E and later was offered as a turbo RB30ET.

Looks very nice.

That's correct buddy.;)

Another popular mod on these, is an RB26 Head on the RB30 block. They are very fast when turboed. They aren't very heavy at all.

Thankyou.
