Yeah its running pretty well. Its been about for years (origionaly from syd) Appartently made 200kw back in the day, not sure if it still is but find out soon I guess.

My fuel average was 6.9l per 100 on the highway so cant complain.... (not sure how accurate the trip comp is)

Have to do a few things like delete the horendous exhaust drone (3" pipes), Work out if the water injection is working and give it a good clean. The boot lid needs some paint but other than that it goes well and its a interesting driving a car with boost and a HI stall!

Ill get some pics after work today.

Not much better on the Gold Coast at the moment... So it shouldn't be a problem.

the cold is good for boost. I welcome winter for that reason alone
