Looks awsome mate, very neat. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

looks good dude

Cheers boyz, like all things cars its taken much longer than expected. Was originally just a turbo upgrade....then it was plenum, hidden wiring, battery in boot, paint engine bay, cam change, vernier cam gear etc etc etc Anyway not long now. Hoping it cracks a 10.99 or better around 120-125mph. Pump fuel and slicks of course. Maybe low 11s on proper street tyres ie 18s. We'll see anyway. Seen your car Tuesday Alex....WTF dude? You are nuts, haha. By the time im running again i'll probably be well and truly behind the 8 ball but at this point I wont be spending another dollar on it......hmmm maybe some new wheels.....and a top half spray.....Lol, jokes.

what turbz is it? looks good man Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Thanks man, its a GT35/40 0.82 rear, 48mm Turbosmart Gate on welded then ported exhaust manifold. Wish I took pics of the inside of the manifold because it was pretty impressive what they had done to it. Cheers to Jake for the manifold.

I don't think you will be that far behind actually, if at all., just hope the trans likes it . With Mph that high ,you have to go crazy speeds to even get past another car. For a 120-125mph trap car versus a 130mph car, you would have to be go over 100mph before you even have half a chance of getting past, You might open up 3-4 car lengths, but you would have to do 210(130mph) to do it gone are the old 110mph trap styles, hey dazza razza matazza. Now it's balls to the wall, ha,ha cheers darren Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

very very nice man, that looks sweet as, cant wait to see it in real life. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Looks like we'll be having some big top end runs then Dazz...lol...I remember the expressway one night many years ago, you rex and me VL manual.... Much appreciated Gav. Oh and buy Alexs turbo/manifold setup...you know you want it....haha.

Looks awesome Darren. Good to see we will have another VL on the road. Unlike a few others that wont be for at least a few more months lol. Looks so nice man, congrats . Cant wait to see it. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

What gearbox are you opting for? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Adams died a death at 11.4 and 120mph........ Come-on dazza we were only doing 250km had to lean out the a/f ratios 2 points and wang another 2 degrees timing after that night into it cheers darren Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
