Man that's where I should be putting all my money cause I know if I got divorced, there's no way she's gonna want half of an exa. Gutsy job mate, I can't even figure out what the hell I'm looking at there.
If you ever want to move to Canberra for a deliciously crisp minus degree winter I've got one here you can start on.
Good Job. Keep the information rolling.

Hey Joel its great to here from you man, long time coming i know :) what's cracken?

To answer the questions it doen't have a lsd it has a custom made n12 gear box with a locker so there will be no slipping for me.

Also inregards to the i/c the core is fare bigger then we need so i'll be cutting down the size, if your question was about the tanks being on the top and bottom it flows bettter that way.

Car is getting painted as we speak new pics coming soon.

Then all i have to do is fined another GOOD haltec specialist because i don't have the time to fine tune this thing myself,

Out

hey man id love to see this in person, im guessing its a racer not a streeter? so let us know when you take it to the track, and maybe a few of us could so our support.

if its a street car id love to catch up for a cruise, but this baby looks too lethal for the street

Cheers,
Dex

how do you spend 50k on an N12 ??

what does 'custom' mean ? you paid someone do every job ?
think I answered my own question.

good luck with it all, just tell the boys to fix up the cooler end tank, thats disastrous.

custom

Yeah custom means not of the shelf, we engineered most things from scratch and then got some one to fabricate it for use, but yeah as you can see some of the fabrications are a bit average,
