Didnt have quad lights I checked!

DEVL-XR · 15-02-2007, 10:13 AM

Yeah that car didnt have quad lights when I was looking at it and everytime I see it around town it hasnt had quad lights.
Reasons I didnt buy that one was because it was just out of my budget, had more K's than mine, the trans wasnt as good as mine and it didnt have any tint compared to my light shade! It was very hard to make the decision, I too preferred the cobolt blue to marine blue but now I dont mind marine blue.
Oh another difference is mine has the momo steering wheel where that one had a crappy 3 spoke thing!!
To tell you the truth I proberly would have been better off buying the other one since I've had problems leading from other problems with mine!
Ok I'm a bit off topic here so I'll be quiet now!

What unlimited mods can they do over cars? Why are they so much different?

EFFalcon · 15-02-2007, 02:08 PM

no EPA/ADR's etc.

Steady ED · 15-02-2007, 02:25 PM

Thats it, if it's safe, you can pretty much do it.
Although was looking at the regs the other night, jet/rocket boats are out :(

You can't use those motors cause they burn us skiiers!

Anything is in, turbines included (driving a gearbox of course!)

I used to race behind a twin rig outboard in the early 90's

385hp per engine. 2 x 2.5lt V6 Mercury Racing Engines.

When the first twin turbo came out (Gods Gift) it was worth $120,000 in '92 for the engine alone.

Rumours had it that when he went to sell gods gift was asking $1,000,000.

gods gift was an orsome boat you could hear that thing comming for miles

snypereb · 18-02-2007, 11:35 AM

There were rumours of this boat doing over 215kmph down the murray river with two skiers on the back.

Jason[98.EL] · 18-02-2007, 11:41 AM

yeh it did go a bit faster 130mph or around 220kph with 2 skiiers that was the day before it went down to the bottom of the river in mildura

snypereb · 18-02-2007, 11:48 AM

Threw a prop blade through the fuel tank
..............explosion.........airborn..........f lip..............botton of murray. iirc

Jason[98.EL] · 18-02-2007, 11:56 AM

from what the word was the prop was the only thing that the didnt look over on the day

and it was in the speed dash that they have in mildura with no skiiers behind it and that was a good thing as the skiiers would have been in a bit of trouble to
