By uneducated idiots. GM is the only wise car designers. Muscle cars must sit high up cause they use height to turn faster. The engine is tuned to work with the high stance. Lower the car and you've stuffed the performance. If you want a low car, you don't buy muscle cars. You want a sports car. Go buy corvette.
Young lad has got some taste, so good to hear younger generation love the classics. A9X, Skyline, Rx3 and VL Turbo sounds like the perfect garage to me!
@@syygnis very cool, what are you planning on buying first?…shame they are all so expensive now, I was lucky enough to own a few of these when they were cheaper. I’m trying to buy another Rx2, shame they are 20 times the price that I sold mine for 🤦🏼♂️
Clearly this guy DOESN'T understand front mounted engine cars and SHOULD HAVE the appropriate rear mounted engine car instead. He should stay away from all things torana. This young idiot is going to drive straight off the road instead of turning for a corner and he'll kill himself and the car.
Soon that engine will go straight into a gum tree or 2. Its not outstanding. Front mounted engine cars must have a high center of gravity and narrow rear tyres. If you do the opposite, your car won't turn around corners.
Absolutely stunning. Love the stance with the Simmons V5's. Used to see Torana's like that a lot around Penrith when I was kid in the 80's and 90's, just never that clean. Such a beautiful car and his R32 looks pretty awesome too.
Another good video and nice car. Just noticed the owner is still chasing rubber grommets? I can custome 3d print rubber grommets if anybody is interested?
Soon Its going to be crushed. After it fails to turn and drives straight into a tree. So, its just another torana sold to an idiot who de-tuned the poor old thing, then smashes it. Everyday he sees Its a front mounted engine car but he's got no idea what that does to performance.
Muscle cars have a high stance with a fast revving engine and fast gearing. Sports cars are LOWERED with a slower revving engine and slower gearing. If you Lower a muscle car , you MUST also change the engine and gearing and the suspension and tyres and lengthen the wheelbase to perform at the Lower height. So just forget about toranas and buy the appropriate car for the driving performance you want to do. Clearly you actually want a rear mounted engine corvette. Its just stupid you playing around with these tired old front mounted engine designs. You shouldn't be anywhere near these torana things.
Always loved the look of the gold symonds!
What a nice bloke!
Looks like your "Living the Dream!"
Mint car looks like a high-quality build
Certainly is mate!!!!

Wrong.
This car was de-tuned and now it can't turn corners and will soon smash.
That's weard thought I'd be the only one with eclectic taste enough to have a slr5000 and a 32 gtr... How good... Great stuff... Nice work.
Thanks mate, Appreciate it ❤
living the dream - young lad looks stoked

Bring back so many memories I had a Barbados Green one the same. What a gorgeous car. 🇦🇺💯😂😎🤟
Its Actually unable to turn corners now and will soon smash and be thrown in the rubbish.
@@dreyn7780 if there going to throw it away I'll have it. 😂🤣🤣
love the old school colour and wheel choice 👌👌
outstanding! great to see it still has a proper engine in it too 👍

@@dreyn7780 yea it's not like toranas won at Bathurst or anything
Thanks Piffiiiiiiiit Appreciate it mate 🤙
Actually they have a very low centre of gravity the V8 is low in the chassis and mostly behind the front wheels @@dreyn7780
Great job , nice tyres too… I’m running P7 corsa’s . And yes don’t people go nuts for a torana on the roads .
Nice Torana for a young guy who's the guy that done the exhaust system I want to get mine done
well done to this young lad fking awesome
He'll follow Peter brock into a tree.
The smash is going to be awesome.
Thanks big Jobby 🤙
He's obviously got plenty of money!

Didn’t know my cousin Torana had a review on TH-cam lol I have a video of its like second time starting up after taking its first drive if you want it

@@GrassRootsGaragesweet I will do it as soon as i can
@@GrassRootsGarage my video files wouldn’t attach
@@GrassRootsGarage sent it
I sold Bailey and his dad YRL05S.
Genuinely nice people.
one of my (Pete’s) most memorable cars of all time. that, HELP and IMB055
the OG cars 💪
Clearly they bought the wrong car.
It all helps when daddy runs his own mechanical workshop 👍
Don’t hate cobber 🥺
Daddy will have to bury the son and the car, soon.
Clearly this version of the car can't turn corners any more.
Its now become a death trap.
@@dreyn7780 ease up little fella if it’s possible to get an Xa around a corner this thing would be like a go cart still .
@@youcrosseyedh1774 thanks mate, the Torana turns as good a Torana can turn 😅😅
Looks better with slr body kit
Hope its got a air tag on it someware
only the best
Another good video and nice car. Just noticed the owner is still chasing rubber grommets? I can custome 3d print rubber grommets if anybody is interested?
A9X. Is. a. Two. Door. Car

About 100 tudors and 300 four door a9x , so not many but they were 4 door ones.
@@dreyn7780 most people get a smile on their face when they see a torana , don’t be such a downer man .
@@youcrosseyedh1774 thanks mate! ❤ there definitely are 4 door A9X's as you said and there will always be haters 😎
