Hey Brett, How's the car going? Any updates? Happy Driving!

is this crazy thing finished yet or what? Brett: I bought a XR6T!!! *shame on me!* (sold the Twin turbo VL for 11k......Your right I think I miss its ballsy accelleration already!) but the xr6t goes damn nice, and its getting some big mods in years to come tee hee!

has anyone heard anymore about this car? is it still getting built?

Brett got ****ed around by a workshop and the car is now at a reputable workshop in Campbellfield getting done properly

is anyone able to takl to him and get an update or some more pic's etc! or tell him to update his site so those interested can hear about it!

Sorry about the delays in updating the site guys. I've been relocating back to QLD, and concentrating on business. As already mentioned, I got shafted (AGAIN) with the car. Car is now elsewhere with reports being written about how shoddy the other work was, and how much I got ripped.

sorry to hear that! so your back in Sunny Queensland! what time frame are u working on now, what more needs to be done? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Unfortunately, I can't really say that whether it was tuning assembly or both. In fact, the workshop might argue that it was neither and that the engine package I paid for is without fault. The technical reports show an answer to the question, but I can't share the contents of it here. The reality is that raising any kind of legal fight will cost money I don't have, and take time I have even less of.
