That is the car I was talking about on page 60 when somebody posted the picture of the VL with the BA Turbo motor!!! When I saw it it had one of the AU "Intech" rocker covers on it.

Until you see the thing go.

Met the guy one night at Harbourtown when he stopped and we couldn't believe what he was running in it. I heard a few months ago it was on Carsales so I don't know where it is now.

The thing was absolutely mental.

Epic fail I'd say, 40k on a ba xt somebody needs to get their hand off it.

I know that's a lot of money, but I wouldn't call it a fail. I reckon it'd be an awesome sleeper. Everyone expect an XR6T to be quick but nobody expect the same performance from an XT

I agree, that's an awesome sleeper, although there's no way I'd pay that sort of money for it.

I'd rather drive that colingdoor than a great wall ute. I'd also rather walk then drive either.
