Looking good mate nothing better than fresh paint gives you a whole new perspective on the car when you have nice paint everything else seems to end up getting done so much nicer

will look fantastic when done mate.. Got any more info on the driveline?

[DougallParticipant Townsville, nth qldVl calais turbo View build HERE Member since: April 3, 2015 Posts: 60]

Thanks guys it’s been a lot of hard work ,

driveline to date is

rajab plenum,550cc injectors,044 pump and surge in boot

gt35/40/82r pro boost turbo,3″ full system, biggest hydraulic cam available

adj cam gear, rising rate fuel reg, microtech ecu

full built Cruikshank transmissions. trimatic to handle 750hp, 3500 dominator lock up stall, single piece tail shaft, vl turbo diff with mini spool, 3:45 gears

after it’s done with paint we’re going to upgrade to a haltech ecu and switch to barrel E85

going a cell and twin 044s in boot, bigger injectors and 3 1/2″ exhaust so should piss 300+kw

in no dramas
