Dylans Sprint - The New Beginning

So the plan was to sell the Ghia, buy an EL XR6 and put OED's engine in it. after looking at several EL XR6's and finding them all to be absolute crap in one way or another i got over it and started thinking i would just put the engine in the Ghia... but i once again changed my mind and went in a completely different direction.

Enter sprint

ignore the fact it is missing numberplates, those pics were taken just after my uncle bought it and it was being stored at my house before going to Adelaide. It comes back on Friday and will hopefully be registered next week :D

welcome to the awesome kunts club.
looks schmick, it also doesn't have the homo kit.
i rate it.
where'd it originally come from?

don't take it off the road to do stuff to it would be my advice.

originally came from a guy up here in QLD, cant remember how much he wanted for it but my uncle ended up getting it for 8 grand which is a damn good deal considering its condition and k's which i think from memory are somewhere around the 170 - 175 mark

no idea on future mods at the moment, exhaust is already done and its lowered, so i'm happy for now. i just want to actually drive the damn thing. having said that i'm sure it will receive some upgrades in the not too distant future

is it manual or auto mate?
theres not many little things to do on the 5Ls, especially when you've already got a good manifold, TB, MAF and injectors.
tune and diff gears maybe.

its an auto. he needs to send the valve body off to get molested, and some 3.7's. Not sure what type of exhaust it has, or if it has extractors. but it needs go faster bits already!

as OED said it's an Auto. Diff gears has crossed my mind, i'm sure with the collective abuse i will receive from OED and Rollin if i don't do anything to it, something will get done soon

Leave the whole car exactly as it is, and turbo it. Best idea ever.

if he does that, he will need something made up to keep the block together. would hate to see it split! :O

It wont split if he only runs enough boost for just on 400rwhp. If he gets a nice single or a couple of small ones that are bullshit responsive it will have an area under the curve like amanda vanstone and consequently will decimate kunts anytime, anywhere.

small update i guess, the car is currently sitting in the garage, plates on, front left indicator/parker working again awaiting RWC. i'm taking it to work in the morning and hopefully it gets it, it should pass with no worries, if for some reason it doesn't, ill be pissed

does that mean you can drive it on the weekend?

no, i have to carry rego application and insurance details in the car with me tomorrow, and i am only allowed to drive directly to work and back home again, i also have to be able to demonstrate to a cop that i am on a direct route to work or home if i get pulled over.

because qld transport is closed on saturdays now, it wont get registered until tuesday if it gets the rwc tomorrow. so no weekend driving for me :cry:
