Nice car mate.
And well done with the mods, g6e turbos are pretty good.
I get to drive them at work and they hammer when the boot is put in.
Nice one and looks great.
Cheers
Daniel

Thanks guys!! I love it haha heading back to the strip in a few weeks to improve the time a bit.. Will need to invest in a lsd soon haha.. They are such great value. Paid 28,000 for it and spent about 6400-7000 on it and you get a 11s car that you can drive everyday.. Love it haha
David sheehy did all the tuning.. I fitted everything myself..

Few more things to do yet..

great work! You dont mess around!!! Dont see any quick g6's on the road. Good to see one hitting the strip! You will prob have one of if not the fastest one around! Ignore those who have been building theirs with monster power for years as yours is actually on the road!

All in 2 months!! hah +Like!

all F6 turbo's are the same, but that explains why its not topping out.... because its not the original FG one :P

Yerr they are a great car!! always wanted one since they come out.. As for the BF i have sold it to the fella who built and tuned it. No so much given up more it was either a g6et or the bf and after driving both it wasnt hard to choose. Hopefully one day after i get a house sorted i can do another n/a build without it having to be my daily car.. I think it getting a few changes since going to new owner..

Hahaha they are great value for money.. easy to make power haha I fell in love with boooost and had to have it!!

Hey mate yer the standard g6et/xr6t are only safe to take to around 320rwkw.. Can bush them further but at your own risk. I switched to a f6 turbo( same as ba/bf) and is good for 400rwkw .. Bit more if you want to push it..
