Nice. Tell us more about this car.

Very nice.

Is this FWD or RWD?

David Tynan · #4 (**permalink**) 05-30-2008, 07:28 PM

Car is RWD and has a T5 5 speed trans and only 205/60/13 tyres, hence the slow et. The motor and box is out of a 92 holden commodore (motor is pre L36/L67, still tall deck and unsymetrical heads). I put the turbo setup on it myself, only problem to date is it busts ring lands out of the pistons pretty easy, but I have been running 20lb boost so I guess thats to be expected.

LC yeah? That's one straight 2 door and loving the fact you got that ET on those bicycle tyres. Some slicks and it might hit the 11s. Top effort mate

That is really cool, especially the way it looks all sweet and innocent sitting on te garage floor, only to find out later that it's going to slaughter you. Kinda like a toddler Jeffery Dalmer.
