As for sixes, you know, I like the six sound,remember the old XU1? They weren’t a bad sounding bit of kit, don’t try and pretend it’s a V8. I’m relating it to the scene in Spinal tap where he has the cucumber down his pants. Moral of the story is don’t pretend to have something you don’t ..... you’ll end up embarrassed  |
The old XU-1 sound at idle was ok, but a mate had a G pack Torana with a worked 202 with dual exhaust that was chevy style pointing down both sides to the road, she was quite but would rump thump noise at idle, when he dropped off another mate at his mum and dads place they hated that noise and could not understand why it did that, so he would have to drop him off at the start of the driveway 100m away.
If I hear a nice big cam late at night I love it, not to mention some ***** flat to the boards going past my place, it's music to my ears if it sounds good.
A mate who lived on the Bundaberg highway who would jump out of bed to watch some ***** fly by flat to the boards, you could hear them coming up the hill, sounded great !
Even them old 2stroke diesels could sound good, when I lived on top of a hill I would listen out for it coming around about 10.30 at night but I could not hear the cars from home much at all.
