Default Better luck this time

Hey guys,

Not a new member, some of you know the story of the smashed red Betty, but a new Rex to add to the family.

Finally 5 months later I picked up a replacement MY06 last Friday. Your run of the mill black MY06, tinted with a 3" CBE. Thinking dump pipe and re-tune in the short term as she smells to be running a bit rich. Other than that, only time can tell.





I do have to say I am enjoying the longer 1st gear compared to the MY09. Let's hope I have more luck in this one. Will have to get her out on a cruise soon.

It's a shame you had to downgrade (theoretically) for whatever reason but having said that I think the pig is a far sexier shape. Fingers crossed you achieve your goals with this car. Welcome back

Why the downgrade?? Surely your insurance would've allowed for replacement value?

PFFFT Downgrade my ass! Clearly an upgrade.

Good luck mate! Needs dumpage badly though.

Congrats, the pig FTW every day

A dump pipe and tune will put a smile on your face.

needs those wheels painted black (temporarily), and slammage, or a set of 9" wide Rota's like Bryno's car... then you're on to something!
