I forgot to update you guys on this one..

Since I started to drive the car with the turbo setup a month ago, i've messed up my gearbox a little bit, the bearings in my LSD diff broke and the turbo broke also

But all those things have been fixed now.

Got myself some 13" inch rims and painted them myself and bought new tires on them. My dad made this awesome roof rack out of wood that we found in the garage, pretty good to keep the tent and spare tires on the top of it when i go to some trip.

But enough of the talking.. here's some pics..

Oh and btw, I went to the quarter mile track here in town the other and the time was 15.3 @ 89mph .. I'm pretty sure it will do better the next time, the traction was not good and my car is rwd so...

Guy you have a bit of work to catch up to this one

it all looks really good and thats not a bad time for a wagon, especially if it was in the wet in rear wheel drive.

Hehe, love the timing cover paint:) i would have stuck with red and yellow tho... hehehe at least i'm the the only one on earth that paints stuff:p

Think i'll add some more yellow on mine:D

Maybe add two yellow racing stripes on the timing covers like on the body of 'racing'cars:p

Crikey! Am I the only one that uses subtle schemes?

I think it's bad ass though!

Nice build. The spacers are pretty much exactly what I was contemplating doing so nice to see it is possible.

Any way of sending me the specs? Size, thickness etc?

The base price sure has changed since sending the link to you Jules, I recall it started around 40 bucks before add ons.

Shivers. $330 not including freight. Might have a chat to a friend who said can make them. Will PM you Guy if he will do it.
