Almost $6000 for the kit alone. Yeah, but turning a standard T into a monster costs $20 grand. That includes a kit, brakes, wheels the lot. Either way you are gonna pay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you'll lose too much money neways, the second hand market is is absolutely flooded with these things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you put $32-$33k on the n/a it'd be a cheaper option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon keep the NA and spend a few grand on mods. Far better than forking out for a 'similar' car without knowing the history of it etc. NA all the way!

Or blow hot air like the rest of them. Plus, where are the rest of ya's? Strength in numbers may persuade me to keep GIMLI. C'mon. Own up. Whers is ya's??? Wanye, the first question to ask yourself I suppose is, how much extra power do you want? Vs How much dough do you have to spend? You are probably doing 0-100kph in 5.5secs > 6.0sec. That's bloody impressive for a heavy car like the XR6.....auto as well. I was in the same situation as yourself when purchasing the XR6N/A, could not afford the "T" at the time. How often do you need to travel over 120kph on public roads? As you know I have spent around the same money as you on my N/A, I would LOVE to have more grunt but I am not interested in parting with any more dough. Running 14.92@92.9mph is pretty fair for my N/A but like yourself I want to go that little bit quicker.......where does it stop!!...lol. Just a couple more minimal mods will get me to 14.6 I reckon. The "T" just mods so much better than the N/A and always will. Ultimately your call mate, but from 0-100kph as you said there's nothing in it between you and a stock "T". My 2centsCheersSimon.T.
