I heard dion (Dynomite) is going for same record similar setup ups in the rear although he's using a FG ute and I think he's putting his engine out of GMKILAwhile his new engine is built

Can't wait till your car is done definitely going the best possible way about it no short cuts gd luck with your build

Yeah he is. So it turns out. Ihe was talking about the fg regulary when we spoke but stupid me assumed it was a sedan. When I found out it was a ute, I'm thiinking damn. Ha ha. It will be a quick car no doubt about it. In fact it will be fully stripped and used for drags and will be a wrapon. It won't run 4 link but it will have a very well set up rear end. I still want to drive mine on the street. So interior, dash etc will remain.

He will just de-tune mine so his is quicker!! Ha ha ha.

Ive learnt over the years with performance cars. Do it right the first time because I assure u. U will redo it again at later date the right way. Generally costing more in the process.

That's some good progress there!! Looks like you,ll beat me to the strip I'm still waiting for my engine!!

Looking forward to the strip numbers as this is the complete package in ute form!!

Thanks. The car doesn't go yet. Lol.

I've put off the bottom end until everything else is sorted and well. It's still a built bottom end but the real engine used will be full house and something special. I'll also go 12-13' wide slicks and converter redone to suit motor when it's done . So it will be far from from it's potential until that is done. I will start the engine as soon as the car is running.

Those wheels looks awesome sitting under the tray! Are they 8 or 10"s? What brakes?

Have a pic of the inside of the tub?

I will get a picture. I still need to get the tub liner plastic welded in. They were cut for mini tubs and I was nt going to run liner. But decided to run it. Looks a lot neater that way considering the car is 2003 with 50,000 on it. I don't want to totally destroy it :-)

I no wat u mean but I no dion really well hell do it all properly for u he built me my first vlt 7yrs ago and still runs 21psi and hasnt been rebuilt

I also this his turbo is a tad lil bit bigger he's got the gt55r and yeh this is pure drag and to get that record so everything is coming out I think it's only having a tachometer in it and 1 seat so no weight there lol

And I think he's hope for over 1000rwhp

What power are u hoping for and what is the time your chasing I'm too lazy to check big day today

Shooting for 11100-1200rwhp. I'll get there. May need to change turbo but with this new engine it will breathe very well therefore it will be able to surpass the turbo,s rating of 1200hp. I will also use a fairly big shot of nitrous. Ive know dion over 10 years he def will tune it to the max. I used to buy Suzuki swift gti parts off him when he owned a wreckers. I'm also over cutting and drilling to get weight out so dion is going to have some fun with a plasma cutter. :-). I so need one. Lol. Mine is going to be street driven. Not sure how streetable it will be with full spool and no bushes in rear and a 5000rpm stall. Lol

Good to see your going all out,that's the good thing about these cars you can have massive power,and still drive on the street without any problems!

What nitrous system do you use and what shot are you thinking of running?

Cheers lee
