Hey all just wanted to show ya's my 85 ET ,
I bought it in january for $500 on the side of the road in Chermside here in Brisbane ... it was sitting under a tree for 12 months the bloke said and it was in a real bad way , it had oil pissing out of it everywhere from the oil feed line into the turbo he said he couldnt get it back on so i tried for about 2 minutes and got it he was spewing! but then i drove it onto the tow truck and had it towed here to Goodna where i done the repairs to get it on the road. but anyways in the meantime heres what it has:
Rebuilt T2 turbo-(from Dexi) cheers mate!
Custom intercooler piping and intercooler from a ford capri turbo
pioneer head unit with 2 6x9s and 2 4" speakers that fill the holes in the back
2:1/4 exhaust from dump to cannon
custom fuel rail(not sure where the guy got it)
16" rims with 205/40 nankangs on it
sports wheel
chrome gear shift nob
aftermarket boost gauge
shitty silver and black looking foot pedals( on there when i bought the car never taken em off)
turbosmart type 2 BOV
and one hell of a happy owner!

yeah i love the car, it fuckin flys ! its boosting at 10-12 psi depending on what kinda day it is, if its cold i like to put it at 12 or normally i just run 10. but i forgot to mention i bought the wheels from toowoomba for $250, the wheel and boss kit cost 80 and the shift nob cost 5 from cashies, other than that the car came completly standard except for the piping and intercooler.. will keep yas posted on the progress
