I dont think he gets any... (mod plate, engineered)
You'll have to excuse Adz.. He's not very much into forums.... but mention a cruise.... HE'S THERE!

Torque steer... hrmmm... he seems to be able to control it fairly well (when i see him boot it anyway) but perhaps he would answer this better...
adz?

Yes but we wont mention that...

Now kids...
Do not race... especially highly modified WRXs that handle corners at high speeds better than you.
Also... Do not speed... Especially at speeds over 260km/h... a corner could come out of no-where.

Im not saying thats what happened... im just saying... :?

hehe... Thanks guys... 'Love the animation'

I got it done through multiple mechanics.. I paid each person to do what they are good at and thats it.. I dont trust someone to do the whole thing, as it had never been done in Queensland when i got it done. Cant say online, cause it's kinda advertising people, if your keen to find out more PM me.. and all companies are in Queensland too!!

Well the cops KINDA only pic on you SOME of the time if you are doing something stupid.. But sometimes they pull me over and dont really rape me too much, how you talk to police normal predict your fines *fingers crossed from now on* Well if you dont have visable defects like a BOV and stuff sticking out saying BOOK ME.. RE: Some people's bonnet's... haha... you are normally pretty safe, but saying this wont stop them for booking you for stupid little things. But my advice is to do what makes you happy and worry about just having fun, whatever happens just go with the flow!!

Tourque steer is always going to be a problem... But a set of 225 18" with 30 profile always helps more!! hehe.. Also knowing what your car is going to do and not abusing your car is a good thing too... An excell can beat me from a set of lights, but i like going fast 'Top End' so thats what it is setup for.. and believe me 0-100 is ok, 100-250 is OMG!! hehehe BUT i do have the 6A13 4wd gearbox and as Sam knows, i am keen as mustard to adapt the Gallant running gear to make her 4wd!!

Hope that ans your questions matey... and dont stress about doing a turbo converstion, if you want to do it.. just do your reserch and you wont be sorry... FTO's are so sexy, who said they cant go fast??? !!

Hiya dude, we should sooo organise a cruise soon!! *Nudges Sam*
I got the boot lid welded, bogged and re-painted, for anyone that wants to know it cost's around $300 at a good panel beater... All stickers are gone and re got a 80% re=spray, but i know what the next colour is.. in the house colour... haha

I didnt put my glove box back in (for all that didnt know, the old one got melted.. Met a soldering iron oneday... oppss) So i made a custom panel, looks pretty groovey!!
