ahaha....i browse through the pages quickly and saw some pictures with the car in different patches of colour, cracked rubber hoses, wet carpet sponge, turbo and a dyno graph showing 367hp.. haha....seems like need to spend alot of time, effort and money needed to revive this monster. Good to know so that in the future, if i were to engage in a project car, really have to pick a good condition one.

Not really sitting for a year la... just out of the whole year I got to drive it for 2 weeks only. The rest of the year it was either fixing something or doing something.

But to be totally fair - I am a little OCD. So a little vibrate here or mess there, I get irritated and will want to fix it.

That is alot of downtime. Buying and expensive toy and only looking at it. I be you are excited once this thing is really up and running. Then you can finally harvest the fruits of your labour. :beer:

its definitely going to be much more drive-able with the holset hx35 compared to the hx55 that was on the car previously? was the car set up for drag? i wondered how the last owner drove with such a huge turbo on a 2.5l block, the boost threshold and lag is unimaginable...

So, 2 monsters coming out......:adore:
i guess its because its the Halloween season, haha...
 

Random Post Every 5 Minutes

I was recommended to install this new stuff by accessory shop. Claims it
could make acceleration be consistent. Any comments? Is this another one
of those white elephant devices that claim more acceleration...boost
power...save fuel...blah blahblah?? No offence coz it's more expensive
than Pivot Raizin Blue I installed (with no improvements). FYI, I was quoted RM200 incl install. Any price-buster around K.Valley?
