Haha I thought about selling the Rodeo (My usual Daily) and keeping this! but Its an hours drive to work for me and with 3.8 Diff gears its not really a cruiser... maybe If I changed the diff gears, but then its not as fun wink.gif

Oh and im not sure exactly how much Ill be chasing... wont be in a rush to sell and depends how much more I spend on it.. but around 12k

Nice one!

Can I ask what's been done to the engine? Or is it fairly stock? Also Clevo or Windsor? I'm not good enough to tell from the pics above sad.gif

Depending on when you decide to sell I could be an interested buyer. I was wanting one a little more like a project that I could use to learn panel/paint work on, but if it doesn't need a great deal then I suppose it's a good thing haha.

Is going on the Dyno next week and a run down the drags to see how she goes biggrin.gif

Viper- 01-17-2009
Oh also id say it would have some headwork as it pulls hard but yea no idea exactly...

Viper- 01-21-2009
Took her down to woop ass wednesday tonight, Ran a 13.6 on the first run and that was the fastest it did lol... But ran constant 13.7-13.8's

Lots of trouble getting traction tho, had 225/50 street tyres and couldnt stall it up off the line at all or just got wheel spin through to 2nd gear, so was just taking off with half throttle then progressively accelerating.

Anyone on here good at interpreting time slips and guessing what it would be capable of with some traction?

Tempted to get it Dyno tuned and a set of slicks now lol dam bug bit me!

schnoods- 01-21-2009
Ahhh, saw this down there tonight.

Sounded very good indeed. was wondering where i saw it before.

Nice effort mate, needs a PF sticker to make it more identifiable.

Hey guys, Did a power run at Rotormotion today and only came up as 243rwhp, hmm seemed a little odd I was thinking it would be closer to 280rwhp after the run at the drags but I guess every dyno is different. Either way its abit less then the previous owner said :/ altho it was abit lean and going back for a dyno tune on Tuesday.

Also anyone got a pair of 15x7.5 or 15x8" rims for sale or maybe even to borrow for a couple weeks.... Bought a pair of slicks and need some rims for next wednesday

Power sounds about right for the times but looking at what your engine is supposed to have inside , might be a little down in my opinion. Mine gave 254 RWHP on Lees dyno at Mindarie Exhaust and I got a 13.234 @ 104.04 mph.
Your 60 ft is a bit slow too but will come down with a quicker time like mine has.
