Good Morning all.
I picked up my soarer after gettin back from afghanistan in Oct last year. It had 112xxxkm's on it. Since owning it i put 5k km's on'r
I got it with an Apexi DP, greddy hardpipes, f-con(not installed) on et streets. on this setup(with the f-con in) she laid down 287whp/285wTq first pull and averaged 284hp and 281 tq
2 quick pics the day i checked it out before i left for the 'ghan
the '79 tercel in the background was mine, carb'd 3A, black vinyl interior(mint!)
since owning it i have pulled the f-con out(installed it in dec, i was bored) installed the FCD, a AEM wb, Turbosmart Veeport on a turbosmart BOV adapter pipe, got the ancient HKS evc working right, had a 3" y-pipe back installed, hurst billet pistol grip and Grant Mahogany wheel(the last 2 where for my own comfort)

Seen this car around a few other sites and really like it. I'm liking the wheels and the conservative skirt kit is nice, a wise front lip would finish it off perfectly. Nice numbers as well.

thanks. For the front ill be going with the oem unit. reason being is that HKS drag coils are in the next plan(until i got everything picked up for the t78 thats goin in;) and i don't want the front coming down on a 800$ bumper.
beginning of may i'll be taking it back to AFI to get it re-dyno'd to see what it lays down on 18psi.
the side skirts and rear lip are actually JIC units. The wheels i am thinking about having refinished in either dark charcoal or black with a polished lip.
