Anyone got a spare airifle with pallets?

can make one just as good for under $10 - depending of course on what you wand to take out. this one won't go through thick glass but will do a construction worker helmet.

6 Speed with 3.7 diff gears would have no lag it would make a great streeter and the zf in a car that ways 600kg less then a falcon would last longer than you think they are a good thing.

Im not doubting the ZF's are a tuff unit, it's just not practicle, You only would use something like that in a heavyweight car to get it up to speed alot quicker, in something as light as the Capri it will just amount to even more rediculous amount's of wheelspin and your not going to be wanting to have to reach for the shifter every split second when it's all over the road...As for ZF and lag it would depend on the size of the turbocharger you would be using, anything under a GT42 wouldn't be laggy at all, step up to a GT45 and above which is what im using and the lag is greater but with the lightness of the car it should still even husle of boost because of the torque of the 4ltr...

A glide would be good to just remember that lexus motor would rev 1500rpm more than tha bara so make sure you dont hit the limiter before the line like the g6

on this forum that makes 550rwkw had to back of 100 mt before the end, change diff gears to suit and becomes to laggy on the street I just believe the 6 speed would be grat in that car and something different. Usualy people buy new cars pump it with old technology the capri would be something special being old with new technology. I trully beleave it would be quicker to you have a gear for any speed.

Well Atomic reckon my engine will be good for about 7800-8000rpm, it is there big banger GT-R version and it has all there best gear, so yeah im sure that would be plenty enough RPM, besides I've got a number of 9" centre's and numerous gearset's ranging from 3.0's to 4.5's in the garage so I'll play around with gearing and get a perfect medium, so I only need 2 gear's, warp factor & godspeed LOL!!

My vl makes 700kw @52psi on kebab juice.

I have made 785rwkw on the dyno with my VL, but unfortunately cannot put the power to the ground, kept braking glide's, 9" diff's, axles, tailshaft's etc, ended up turning it down to 460rwkw and ran 9.4 @ 150mph on 22psi...Can happily run that power with BP98, my mate with my old 32 GTR is trying to convince me to buy another and put this motor in with a 2spd glide for the highway, im taking this into consideration...

What is the fascination with vl's? I just don't get it.

They were an ok car when they come out but there's nothing impressive about owning one now.
