hi, sorry if i missed it, but have u got any power figures or 1/4 mile times?

youve got a very very interested person here
can you get more pix
power figures/ 1/4mile time

No 1/4's.

191hp post re-build @ Ovaboost. This was decompressed for boost.

Price drop to $7,200.

looks smick - how do you find the twin TB setup and did you end up slapping a turbo on this setup (going off the decompressed comment above)

Im really surprised it hasnt sold yet
if it was here either i would have it or about 10 of my mates by now

hope someone comes along and it sells for you

Well it only costs a couple hundred bucks plus ownership transfer fees etc to have it freighted to SA or not too long a drive

believe me i have thought about it
but its probably best that I dont get another car right now anyway

out of curiosity would it need to be run accross the pits to be registered in another state??

You have to check with your state authority as every state/terroritory differs SA may allow you to present evidence of the modifications etc however they may still say unless you have actuall engineering certificates to say the mods wont present environmental etc issues such as an emissions test it may have to go over the pits...being still N/A you maybe able to get away with it.

last time i got a car from NSW regod in SA, all i did was take the car to the police station, they checked the VIN and engine number, ran it through the computer to make sure it wasnt stolen and all that, then signed and handed me a form which i took to Service SA, then i got my new plates and that was it

TTB's are good..I think more responsive. The total setup - and TTB's need it - had good pre-rebuild HP numbers.

Built for boost but never finished.

any chance of seeing the inside?

this is the pic he sent me
hope u dont mind i post it

you wouldnt be interested in separating the EMS by any unlikly chance would u
