Yeah as patch said, it used to have a R33 5 speed box in it but I got rid of that and put the KEAS auto in. Latest power figures were 355hp @ 20psi through the auto. I only took it down the strip once as I don't have much spare time these days. Ran 12.8 at 115mph with 2.41 60footer on 19inch street tyres. With slicks, a decent 60ft and more boost it should be able to gt down to the low 11's maybe even 10's.

Ha ha ha I wish I could buy this back but unfortunately we're in a recession I could only afford it as a roller. Anyone interested in buying this car don't hesitate it's a great bit of work, I spent more than 40k out of my own pocket and would own it again any day. PS with the manual it made 360rwhp on 18 or 19psi from memory. With a bigger cam it would easily go 400+ as the cam i put into it was custom made to be small enough that i could dial it in using factory specs.
