Dylans Sprint - The New Beginning

by **Fairmont888** » June 2nd, 2009, 7:43 pm

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

by **Nikk O'lass** » June 2nd, 2009, 8:03 pm

Nice find.

by **Steady** » June 2nd, 2009, 8:06 pm

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.

by **SnyperEB** » June 2nd, 2009, 8:08 pm

God Sprints are awesome love those wheels. Nice car mate.

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

by **Kyle the ED4LTR** » June 2nd, 2009, 8:27 pm

that's mint as, i remember you showing me this a while back, looks ace.

I love the Polynesian green ED's

by **OED666** » June 2nd, 2009, 8:32 pm

It's got the wrong paint code. It should be H.

Fix it!

by **LOW_XR** » June 2nd, 2009, 8:46 pm

What are the future mods?

by **Fairmont888** » June 2nd, 2009, 10:19 pm

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

by **FOR.0EL** » June 3rd, 2009, 9:15 am

Shotgun driving it first :-P

by **Commando** » June 3rd, 2009, 9:30 am

Worst secret ever

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.

by **Gozza** » June 3rd, 2009, 2:55 pm

A pair of testicles wouldn't be a bad idea either

by **OED666** » June 3rd, 2009, 3:47 pm

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!

by **e series falcon** » June 3rd, 2009, 4:40 pm

u realised boxcar is the way to go

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

by **67rce** » June 3rd, 2009, 5:55 pm

If you don't beat my 1/4 time your a homo, this needs more 13 sec passes....

by **Rollin** » June 3rd, 2009, 6:09 pm

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

by **XR_Lightning** » June 3rd, 2009, 6:32 pm

fuk thats a sexy car dude

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

by **67rce** » June 3rd, 2009, 7:10 pm

Rollin Motorsports 5.0 turbo tester, i'll take the 2nd kit

by **Rollin** » June 3rd, 2009, 8:30 pm

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.

by **Fairmont888** » June 3rd, 2009, 10:19 pm

cocaines a hell of a drug. turbo time is a long way off

by **Fairmont888** » June 4th, 2009, 5:28 pm

well.... the sprint arrived a day early, and is now sitting in the garage in all its glory!!, to say im happy would be a massive understatement, now i just have to get it registered

by **oneredED** » June 4th, 2009, 5:37 pm

Sick car Dylan, nice pickup.

by **e series falcon** » June 4th, 2009, 6:50 pm

dylan i wana get taken for a drive asap

by **FOR.0EL** » June 4th, 2009, 9:55 pm

ive already been

this thing sounds so tough! and goes like a machine, in power mode that is

by **Fairmont888** » June 4th, 2009, 10:00 pm

haha that was rather amusing, "this doesn't feel right"... "it's in economy"... *flicks switch to power*... "that's better!!!*

by **Fairmont888** » June 5th, 2009, 6:09 pm

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

by **OED666** » June 5th, 2009, 6:15 pm

does that mean you can drive it on the weekend?

by **Fairmont888** » June 5th, 2009, 6:19 pm

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:
