Hey Mike, have you written in to Unique Cars magazine recently?
I may have, what was it about? I emailed a pile of people about importing a Toyota Century as special interest a while ago, think an Australian 'unique cars' mag was one of them.

Twin turbo UZZ30 Soarer from NZ Targa 2009. Sorry I didn't get a good angle so you can't really see the turbos. This was putting out around 500RWHP with fairly low boost according to the owner.

They have certainly gone for form over function - don't know if I would quite agree with you Mike but there are some cosmetic improvement opportunities....

But they really didn't make any attempt to make it look decent.
It was a total targa pig - stripped out with a full cage, buckets and harnesses etc. Body was very tidy though. I never did follow up to see how they got on. Must be a website you can look at somewhere?

Haha I gathered so.
I am just confused why something was mentioned in their Mag. I was just asking the editor if they thought a Century was 'special interest'
Mmmm twin screw. I was asking about the Harrop TVS 1900 at a local supplier but they only do it in kit form (for Falcadores) as far as I know, didn't get a further email back though, maybe tomorrow.

Hey Mike,
Give Bullet Cars a call and have a chat to Greg Markham. he should be able to give you some information regarding the HTV1900 etc.

Cheers.
Thanks Nathan, the local guys I have contacted are affiliated with them, but as far as I know they only sell these as complete kits... also remember someone here saying they are not sold as a sole unit.
I will see what their next response is tomorrow, and get in touch with this man you have suggested to see if he can give me some further answers.

Anyone ever thought about a remote mount turbo system? I haven't had a good look under the soarer for frontal room but what about some small twin turbos where the rear mufflers sit?
