Its perfect a little 2 X 4 hilux but has air con, power steering & cd. I needed something with a tray to cart some serious crap from home that has magically built up over the years. Will be good I dont have to worry about scratches & sunburn anymore. Must of done something right.The race tune wont be done til later in the week but its all good I cant get away during this week anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sexual harrassment panda I see a red door and I want to paint it black Donating Members 5,919 Member For: 15y 21d Gender: Male Location: Far north queensland Posted 07/12/09 04:50 AM Share Posted 07/12/09 04:50 AM done a drive by on it today and it was out the front, if it was on the dyno I would of pulled up.anyone know what rwkw the 307k APS turbo car had - not many roads/salt flats up here to test it out on but I'd lay money on a 400rwkw car getting to 300 easilyI think the formula was something like 4 times the power is needed to double the top speed of a vehicle and we all know that the 230k limiter on a stocker was there for a reason.

No real set back cause its not booked on for the dyno til later on this week.No worries dude, cams gonna let me know when its ready for the dyno so I'll give ya some warning just in case you can get in there. Would love to hear it but its madness down here at the moment. Bloody christmas!!!! It wont be catchin much rays when it gets home the shed is getting dead bolt put on it & only comin out when its perfect weather. The little hilux drives great so unless im real keen it can make the trips to cairns that & its got less chance of a defect notice. lol Edited 07/12/09 08:47 AM by qik1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
