Im so confused.. what's going on with that thing? best overall public choice did it have the bike on the roof? :S
Just looks like a shitbox to me... maybe the subtle nuances of this modifying culture are lost on me?..
Yep, hes on the money! One thing tho, its an Aussie car from Brisvegas!!!! Yep, all that stuff in the roof basket is there for the effect. There have been some changes to the baskets contents tho. Check it: And a new tailpipe setup. And finally this things creator, Kane: Feel free to tell him what a heap of shit his toy it to his face. Hes a gentle mummas boy.............. bwaaaaahahahahahahaha!...Yep! L8r E
I'm glad he sorted out the beard, in the second photo in your first post with the big bushy full on beard plus big round ear ring - HELLADODGEY!! As for the car ... well he is part of a minority for the moment so can at least say it is different.
Oh come on Mung, you just saying you dont like the car politely?......................... rofl: Dont be shy now!!!!!!!! l8r E
I'm pretty neutral on it to be honest I like ratrods when done right but then I don't like non essential clutter so the shite on the roof spoils it for me. If I thought it was utter crap I'd say - you know that :rofl: How does it go? if it can slap down an 11 sec qtr with all that junk on the roof then I'm liking it a lot, I've always wanted to turn up at the drags in a ute loaded with hay on the back and throw down a 10 :br::rofl: (the rules might spoil that one though)
Yer I know ud say it dude. i was just seeing if I could get some kind of rise out of you!!!!!! Its a well worked up engine in that thing, Usual clobber for an e15, runs a Disco, big front mount with 3" staino pipework, Microtech, A cutom grind "Stage 4" cam, big custom billet valves and extensive headwork blah blah. It actually does the business if let off the leash. On stone stock stock street rubber with a car full if ICE id happily runs 14 flat. Might not sound impressive but the car is seriously loaded with amps, subs... you name it. No attention to lightening at all. I cant remember what the significance is of the clobber on the roof basket. It deliberate tho along with every other bit of kit including that so not fitting front lip thingo held on with large cable ties! The rusty bonnet/bootlid colour is au naturale and clear coated to preserve! Its a constant work in progress!!!!! You gotta have a sense of humour to appreciate it but it seems enough Qld'ers appreciated it enough to vote it Best Overall Public Choice at last years Classic Japanese nationals held at Lakeside Raceway!!!!! L8r E
Any why does that not surprise me!!! LMAO! Now, I looked a bit further, The engine in that thing is quite a heavy hitter netting 174.5Kw ATW @ 7000rpm on a conservative 19psi tune. He has made a couple of low'ish 13 sec runs @ 105mph. That was with the ICE pulled out tho but still on street rubber and an open center 3.55 diff. No traction at all. A locked 4.16 N13 box is on its way. hell spend most of his time lunching driveshafts and unis now. Way it is with these little shopping trolleys! Id think twice before picking on him in anything but the fastest Zed thats for sure!!!! Kane is not in the slightest bit afraid of unleashing that thing!!!!!! L8r E
I can talk big cause I have a nice big ocean between us :rofl: That's what makes half of these intermanet heroes so tuff you know, those wide expanses of ocean add knowledge and experience we will never be able to understand [TIS]:rofl: Semi back on subject: there is a chap over here running a later model EXA type thing (Fd if I know what the actual model is) he was running a hugely modded SR20DET and running stupid times (10s I think?) but he pulled it out and went to an NA for the fun of trying to push that to its limits. He was over the thrill of the actual race and more in to the technical challenge I guess.
Yes you do, but I have relatives over there............. Ssshhh, dont tell anybody but Im half a Kiwi......... My mother hails from Napier........... Exa sounds nice. NA's sound awesome!
People say rice stands for racing inspired cosmetic enhancements, but is it just coincidence that its an acronym for rice, which is a staple part of asian diet and the term as far as i can remember was used as a slur against japanese cars. rice burner etc. Id say the word rice came first, then they thought up the words
