I think that puppy has been up for a few months. Not sure if he will get that price for it, but I have always found it very hard to put a price on things like that which are so modified.

That thing has been 'in the build' forever .. sounds like it still isn't sorted out. It's been through a few different owners in that time too, I think?

 

[iluszn]

Wasnt this for sale not long ago on car sales aswell?? maybe a different owner again... Has alot of work done. unfortunate fact of modified cars is that you dont get your money back.

farkin engine bay looks crazy! PWR water to air...

but serzly does it really need the monster tach? even though the stock tach is bigger?

 

[JiMi]

aye.. monster tachs are just penis enlargements... my vr4 had one when i got it... was the first thing to come out

Note the "motor is built for 450kw"

I doubt most of the parts are up to getting it up there though.


Another thing- you have got to wonder why he is selling after its "running in"?? If I had just spent $$$$$ on the car- the last thing I would want to do is sell it without tuning for big boost!???

 

[tenji]

was just gonna say the same...

car should make 450kws...

doesnt mean it will.

we all know the pains of modifying and not getting the results we wanted even though the mods "should" have that power in theory.

Look at Barry's car. look at the R&D , mods and money spent... Barry has done everything.. it hasnt reached teh 450kw yet. I dont think this car as it stands would reach 450kw..

Dont forget that the more power you are chasing the less streetable it is. I know for a fact barry wasn't going for outright power, but more for driveability and torque
