KPM Motorsport thanks both Paul from Elite Auto and Sutty for both allowing us to kit their cars out with Streetfighter components and packages in achieving the fastest ever Australian cars tested by Motor Magazine.

Keep in mind that a Drift Box was used for all the timing results. This makes all the results even more impressive as this generally equates to .2-.4 second slower than track based timing.

Both the Streetfighter FPV and HSV vehicles were the first 2 Aussie cars ever to enter into the 11 sec 0-400 meters / 3 sec 0-100 meter milestones.

What is also testament to all involved is that both the Streetfighter vehicles are prepared in the same trim and packages that are available with our exclusive 3 Year Factory Warranty Protection.

In perspective, this means that the packages entered are not highly modified or overpowered track cars rather, thoughtfully upgraded vehicles engineered to maintain reliability to be able to offer driveline warranties while providing the performance as per the results.

Well done Paul and Sutty on a great Job!

All the write up and pictures in the currant Motor Magazine out now.

Great result!

I wonder if a GT335 Rspec had been used whether the times would've been further improved?

It's amazing what can be achieved with these vehicles especially the FPVs.

The 1/4 mile and 0-100 km/h times are comparable to the Nissan GTRs and in most cases faster than some AMGs and M powered cars!

It did a 3.8sec 0-100kmph.

The suspension in the GTE is far from standard and it's running wider rear rubber than the Rspec.

Cheers mate. Yep, that's the new beast.

Long time - no see. Someone should maybe organise an old-crew get together.

Hey Darren. They're an awesome beast. You're gonna love it.

Trent, would be good to catch up at some stage. I'm trying to not work so many crazy hours these days, so will keep an eye on the QLD cruise section................
