dam right mate good one good to hear im building up a new car atm im going to write u a pm so u can help me out a bit

let me know some details bout ur car ay.. send me some pics.. ive got a weapon in my posession now.. once its out of the shop im 90% sure im takin it to, they are makin me a 450+hp car.. 400hp indefinate tuned... so yer bit happier bout that... apparently i have the right set up for it, turbo, cooler, fuel management, blah blah blah, wise, but wiv the forged bottom end an recond. head, it will safely be tuned to promising 400hp round abouts

hey fusion pm me who ur thinking about taking it to , for both the rebuild and the tuning cheers

there's a new shop in woollengaba (can't spell) near street machines think it's called turned, the guy i brought my motor of who lived up here is opening it! should be opened on the 1st of Febuary!

o and i hope u didn't pay them stupid *****ers at pr0 str33t?

I reckon this baby would be able to be moved to the "High Performance" section now wouldn't it?

nah not yet man... once it comes out from the rebuild!! cant wait to get pics up wen im finished days or buffing will the rebuild is getin done!!!

dave its made 271 hp at the flywheel, is that high performace? maybe when it has 450 for sure! dude any chance your gonna clean the bay up/new piping etc whilst the engine is out, seems like the last piece of the puzzle.

is that cooler working ok, it is extremely close to the turbo, i cant see it keeping to cool.

nah mate its 271hp power to the rear wheels not flywheel! yeah bay will be getin done up a bit.. would mind sprayin da bay, but i want the freakin thing on the road asap!! stuffs me if the coolers keepin kool... i aint been able to drive the bastered! but yer the few minutes i did drive it the bay seemed a heap hotter yet was normal on the temp guage.

Am about to purchase the AERO top rear spoiler - can you tell me how difficult this was to fit? Where does the wiring for the brake light come out from? And which part of the spoiler does it come out from?

dont know mate, i didnt put it on, but i'd gather the wire would come out the bottom neir the back quater window.. a hole drilled in the bottom of it an the quater bit i guess.... anywere that the pillar is flush wiv the car.....

The engine bay DID get very hot - hotter than usual I thought. If you could fit twin thermo's in there that'd be perfect. Or if you got rid of the NizPro cooler - but I wouldn't cuz it's a very good cooler. Ben Visconte used to have one on his 10sec Harlequin VL Turbo.

Simply because you've gotta pull all the roof lining (well the back part anyway) off to run the wires. Run this light with a relay to the same wire that operates your normal brake light. It's not as easy as fittin' a boot spoiler or something like that.

lookin good bub...... u'll hav it back in another 2 weeks!!

Hi - Where did you get your AME RIMS from and what are they called? Does AME have a website that you know of? or even a contact number? They look da-bomb! AJ

.. took the car down friday arvo.... leigh took the engine out an put the goodies into it.. droped it all in by sunday arvo.... only reason we couldnt drive it was cos a few injectors were leakin out the rail..... but all's lookin nice...... tyre on the trailer blew out 2 hrs into the trip.. an on the way back, man there are some steep mountains, overheated twice!..... problem is the rear roof mould.. the centre flew out on the way back.. never found it... so if anyone knows were i can get the centre part from.. not the whole thing... its like 3 pieces...the two parts go on either side of the window then the centre with the light.. that part flew off.... can u buy it from holden or were ever you get the genuine kits from down there?

few pics from the full rebuild enden up wiv 323rwhp on 16psi... wiv a huge manifold leak, they snapped 4 studs putin the manifold back on (at GRP workshop) .... but yer will be out soon.. they jus took it for a drive a snapped the thermo fan off which cut the whole radiator up!!.. soo still bit pissed!! Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

lookin good man.. jeez your havin some bad luck though lol. that thing will make 400rwhp no probs

i love this car! good luck with it all mate
