I dont generally get cranked about these type of vehicles as I've seen a few up close and frankly the engineering on them can be a bit rough-hence its inclusion in the auto forum and not the wasteland. This one is a bit different...dont know how it would handle at the top end though.

repost from a while back....

But yeah it might be road reg but i bet if it was seen by the po po on the street they would have it off the road in no time.

It was prolly reg before the mods took place.This is how every1 who modifyes cars like this gets away with saying that it is road legal..after rego expires it will never be road reg again. :no:

I like it...

    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
    • Hey mate, really appreciate the help. Have been looking pretty extensively myself and was certain they were retro fitted, but then ended up finding a 4 door with what looks like the same side skirts or at least the closest I’ve seen.

    • Isn't there a PAR engineering gearset that has closer to stock ratios? And they claim they'll do whatever ratios you want.
