Non-Supra (Holden Commodore)

*Ryan* · 04-08-2007, 07:31 AM

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.
