Very tidy wiring bro.

Those boot hinge arms are anoying arnt they! Can never get the rear board looking quite how you want...

Did you just remove the front off of a store bought box and stick a new one on?

thanks mate

nah the "store box" still has its original front, i just made a facia to cover over it, and used door trim clips in the original holes, where the factory trim was, just under the parcel shelf......

went to powercruise over the weekend, was farkn awesome

although it started out kinda shitty...... all day friday the car was running real crap, poppin and fartin at hi rpm and hi boost, so i got the missus to run home and pik up the timing light, wacked it on and turns out it was 15 degrees out. so i advanced it to where it was spose to be and she went like a dream.

i was beating and keeping up with some pretty tough v8's. i even waxed my brother who is pushing out just under 400hp and runs 12.2's all day long................ he was shitty as after that lol

so after its performance on the weekend i thought i would take it to test n tune last night to see if i could improve on my previous 15.5........ i ran a 14.39 on my first run, then a string of 14.5's...... then the last run i improved to a 14.24.

beating big v8's on the fly is a shit load different to doing the quarter from a standing start, couldnt get farkn traction..... all the way through 1st and 2nd wheelspin................ farkn shite...... just gonna have to get some et streets

Top stuff, nothing like handing asses back to the V8 boys.

As for the track, mmmmeh. Get a sticky set of tyres, and that will sort a shit off the line prob.

What terminal speed are you pulling? Times are one thing, but a terminal speed is the best indicator of how quick the car is on the go.
