Only the new 5.7 Monaro .. Rave review, but over here its not "holden" but "vauxhall" and they are a rubbish brand. Shocking cars, shocking build quality ..

Shame really ..

And no XR6 or XR8 either :(

Hmm, ok....would it be possible for you guys to import a genuine holden if you wanted??

No XR6 or XR8

Damn....the new XR6 turbo is kicking up a bit of a storm over here, still quite big cars though, different kettle of fish to the usual Jap turbo 4 cylinder. Suppose you'd be in something like that if you head back over to Aussie aye!??

Found a nice a Evo II for ya Jim ;)

MSE (murch built) td05 20g turbo with backcut exhaust wheel, about 10km old.

TRR external wastegate.

Battery in boot.

Straight intake pipe with samco hoses, K&N pod.

3 inch exhaust from turbo, to 3 1/2 inch stainless from where the cat once was. Exhaust is polished where it goes under the diff etc as well as the usual polished muffler.

Gizzmo intake manifold gasket.

Turbosmart blow off valve (or greddy type r if you'd prefer that one).

Partly detailed engine bay, some hidden looms, polishing, power coating etc.

Walbro fuel pump 255lph.

Custom catch can.

Custom written Gizzmo chip, was written for a different car with very similar mods.

195kw at all four wheels, running 16psi (in my car).

Ran 12.1 on a Gtec ages ago, I have no interest in dragging or anything anymore. That was before bigger turbo, exhaust, fuel pump. Never actually dragged it on a strip, it's a road trip car.

Gearbox runs redline shockproof oil.

Kei office type XR (pillowball upper mounts) coilover suspension, adj height, damper, camber plates and eccentric bolts for camber adj.

Whiteline 20mm rear sway bar with polyurethane bushes.

Front strut brace.

Reinforced/Strengthened rear subframe.

0800 brakes package, mintex pads and elf fluid, recent disc skim.

Standard interior in very good condition, only changes are boost gauge, evo 5 rear seat. Factory floor mats in very good condition.

Exterior is mostly standard, besides clear side lights, 35% tints. Very good condition externally. 17inch wheels, coated black (need a recoat because it wasn't done properly in the first place, will do this before it's sold). Near new Dunlop FM901 tyres, 205/40/17.

No door locks or boot lock.

Top line alarm.

6,470.00 GBP's + import costs.....how does that compare to the same thing over there??

Cheers

[Jimlad]

fto ??!?!?... I hat fto's!! ...lol.

Still unsure what I'm gonna do at the moment tbh..... may stick with the mr2. Would love more power out of it, but not too keen on the fact that I might not be able to keep it in a straight line... lol.

Also... getting a bit bored. I only owned my first car for 5months before I got bored.. lol.
