I wish I knew what it was.

Suspense is killing me. And curiosity will kill my cat too...

Think of it as another Evolution. With winter aproching and a new passion for my car.... this is just the beginning. So many ideas, so many decisions. This is the beginning of the new plan.

Damn I'm fired up.. this car is going to rock!

parawolf · 10-03-2006, 06:28 PM

stiddy · 10-03-2006, 06:29 PM

Just having a stab in the dark here.

How are you installing the slugs/adjuster screws in the rocker arms to run a solid?

xr8ute · 10-03-2006, 07:01 PM

Good luck Casper, glad you have finally seen the light...that 265 Hemi and trio of double-choke Webers should get your AU well into the 14's ;)

Oh no... I think I've got a small idea, which is probably wrong anyway.

I'll keep it to myself for the time being...

You might be able to sleep if you turn your phone off and stop receiving all those pesky calls about what you are getting done to your car

Yes I loved the Hemi sixes and campaigned a much abused VG Pacer 2 door three speed manual floor shift! with the little 245 and a variety of heads and cams and two and four barrel carbs. I used to run the old Dandenong illegal 1/4 mile drags and Frankston pier impromptu 1/8's. Never had the cash for the webers myself. It was serious fun in its day and i can't quite get it out of my system thats why I continue to mod the old AU.

Glad to see Caspers got a REAl six fanatic on the case then. thought you guys were all wrapped up with alloy V8's!

scottc · 11-03-2006, 05:12 PM

How did you go Casper? Hope I didn't make you too late with the KFC carpark chip deal!!

Did everyone used to race there or something, evan my mum raced at those illegal dandy drags! :evilking:

She is my hero :nutsycuck

Casper · 11-03-2006, 06:38 PM

This is the man who has the keys to my car and the equipment to make it rock.

Fortunately he isn’t a dentist... so we can show you his face.

Glenn from G&D... have fun and go nuts on the old girl. You have an I6 just begging for some grunt... and I know you have already worked out what she needs.

Build her up and let’s go RACING!!!

Kev_BLNXR8_Ute · 11-03-2006, 08:45 PM

what? A BA XR6 NA (like mine is a AU XR6 NA)?? Bwahahahahahahaahaha.

Riiiiiight.
Jac owns the fastest customer owned BA I6 in australia and I already beat her last drag day.... cant see my car getting any slower :P

But enough with the AU/BA bagging.. its getting old now

I have some goals for this car, some targets I plan to get to. This is the first journey to reach those goals and I can assure your that even stock XR8's and XR6T's will think twice about a "traffic light drag" to the speed limit now. :evil3:
Oh, and this is just the beginning, wait till we get REALLY serious.

(oh, and no, this is NOT fitting of any form of forced induction. My car will return to me running natually aspirated)
