Jmes car [Explicit]..

May it rest in pieces..

That was at MV.. after the speedworks build.. those manifolds were handcrafted by speedwok.. dual throttle body setup.

Just do a google search.. to dig up info bout the wagon in its former days. Pre-speedwok bastardisation, car was the mother of all street cars. VF22, holinger, motec, leather interior, works polished wheels.. even if he did go through a stage where it had GT stripes and D.Rucci listed on the rear 1/4 as a co-pilot!! The latter stages saw it making huge HP.. and thats about where the story ends.

We drove to brookton a few times to run it in (after working our asses off doing nightfill at woolies) and it was clear it had some balls. Suppose if you spent good money on a car, you'd expect it to go hard but it ran into box issues and then they moved back home (South Afreeca) and sorted its issues out there. Hence why it disappeared so quickly!

Rashaad bought hansens (xspeed) evo 6 (in the days before the sheep jumped ship ) which in mid 07 was making around 630awhp. Sounds alot and i have NFI what dyno's in SA are like but remember 6 years ago he was running a GT35 (with gate, nos, autronic etc) on a MY00 clubspec. Bit of spare cash lying around and anything is possible!

Theres footage of both cars racing a GT2 over there that was interesting to say the least!

Fun times in those days. Kingsway maccas, [MAGNET], not getting raped and hoon lawed when you got caugfht doing 100kms over, [TRUBLSM] and his yellows, top carpark at scabs on a friday night.

Cant forget the oil downs at scabs on sunday arvo's! That made for some exciting sunday arvo laps!

Fun police FTL

this is a bit before my p-wrx days but was the person who had a GC8 with the plates [xrw] ever a member on here?

The reason that i ask is because back in my younger days that used to be one of my favourite cars at autosalon/motorvation events.
