Good Points: Look awesome goes hard.
Bad Points: Holden stopped making Toranas.
General comments: Toranas are tough. Ive got a sl3300 LJ which I am doing up as a 4-door XU-1 since Holden didn't make them. I've just about finished it except for painting in orange. The 202 is running triple 45DCOE Webers on it, lumpy cam and free-flow exhuast with a big bore muffler.

The Torana XU-1 is a great ~ fun package. High performance, reliable unit. The steering with the rack and pinion is light and accurate.
A trick to tune the triple carbs, but a breeze once mastered. Sensible mods make it even more efficient .. A pleasure to own.
The body is prone to rust in the heater/ ventilation cavity on either side immediately below the right and left side of the windscreen lower corners...body / structural ~ not good!
The clutch rod assembly and or rod can snap ...- Read Stuartnotstu's review (108 words)

Hey my names luke and i have a lj torana 1973 Type S. Anyone who puts a v6 or v8 in one of these aussie icons is dumb. These cars are worth loads in there original conditions. Its like any car you buy no one wants one in 30 years time that has had a different motor or poof autometer taco gauge placed in it. or had the dash butchered to fit a $300.00 cd player. These car will go down in history. I bought mine as an unroad worthy bomb. It knows has a fully reconded motor, reconditioned interior an ...- Read lukeljtorana1973's review (144 words and 3 comments)

The XU-1's were probably the best torana's to ever come out. They are very good looking, extremely fast and powerful and still have a LOT of potential in all those areas. I am very supportive of your decision to knock back the offer of $16 000 for your car. Toranas, especially XU-1's, are becoming extremely rare, and it has taken me a very long time to find one within my price range. Although i mainly use my torana for a bit fun, i do take every precaution and chance i can to take the best care ...- Read Torana King's review (164 words)

Interesting stories by everybody who has contributed but a lot were well off the mark.
I went to Bathurst in October for the XU-1 meet. There were 114 examples there and yes the price going now for an ORIGINAL, and I stress that word,1973 bathurst is anywhere between $30,000 to $40,000 depending on condition. Secondly to the guy in the states, you are incorrect regarding builds during 1973. They built runs in March/April, in Jul and in August and September.
How do I know? I have a copy of the ...- Read Tich's review (126 words and 1 comment)
