You see enough commies gettin around with chev badges But anyway, dont have any power figures etc, but this bloke runs mid 10's all day without any hassles.

nice effort but on the badge topic, you usually find people put on the badge of the type of motor in the car, not the type of car around the motor.

Nah I think the Nissan badge looks good, its just some R31 guys sook and bitch about VLs having Holden badges on RB30s. Not like we can help it anyway, since they came out like that.

There's a story on this car in the latest "Performance Buildups" magazine! That should tell you what you want to know. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

it was in the trader for $20,000, not worth it, has no cooler and needs avgas and 17psi to run that, and the motor is totally stock except for cam, so it won't last to long befoire cracking a ring land or lifting a head. The motor is separate for $6000 this week , again not worth the sum pile of parts, cool car though, sound tough aswell cheers darren 10.8 at 121, not mid tens! has a couple of 58/60mm t04's on it has a trimatic in it aswell, which no doubt would drop it's guts all over the road They are a minimal installation at the best of times in a full weight vl running just into the 10's, let alone a torque monster like that. Cool car, just not for 20 big ones

If the motor was cheaper id look at getting it! But not for a dead stocker thats had 17psi pumped into it with no cooler on stock compression. 10.8 on a stock 308 is bloody awesome however! Id be scared to drive it with a trimatic... id be constantly thinking its going to go bang!

Martin would've run those numbers easily, if setup right, on the stock motor brett. and PAZZO runs some good numbers with his trimatic Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

If the trimatic was built rite it will stand up to it
