[aekOne]

look at all these build threads coming thick and fast!

you know i love this car. almost makes me think i could live with a hatch. almost

[Liberty]

Real nice man, absolutely loving the Blitzen. Did you sell it or do you own both?

[Finky]

yer sell it.. was a nice car..

[skillionaire]

Hi.

Beastly indeed. Great build thread.

Enjoy her in good health, mate.

Cheers,
Nik

[Liberty]

Damn, very nice man. I am definitely wanna own a Blitzen or STi one day...

[Scuba-Roo]

looks sick dude! these hatches are awesome

[Richo]

seven hundred and thirty freaking newton meters of torque ????

[skillionaire]

Hi,

*Metre.



And yes, that seems rather extreme...!

Cheers,
Nik

[Richo]

im guessing its some sort of calculation of Tq at the fly, given Oversteers monster of a donk was ~730nm and 617hp...

[nickknack]

dynos have weird torque multiplication formulas. I once wrote a forum post on how to convert it to actual wtq but I can't remember where or what I wrote

[Finky]

Just a figure.. Dose pull like hell tho haha

[FR34KO]

That is one mean suby!

Just my personal preference, I love those tail lights you've swapped to, but without the darkened section on the inside. IMO the red border with white interior looks excellent, and would especially match the body colour. But if you prefer it that way then so be it!

[Cam.]

MSR's 2.5 tunes are awesome for torque. That figure is at the wheels as well.

He's had un-opened 2.5's pushing 800nm's.

[Aaron.W]

love it ben! didnt realize how much you had actually done to this thing!!

[simon]

WOW this thing is sick. DO WANT. nice change of tail lights they look X1000 betterer. Nice work bud.

[Samwise]

I'm beginning to appreciate the hatch's a bit more now.

[cliffo3rb]

Must be a rocketship!

How does it go against pauls ute?

[jakefake]

Thats an awesome power figure man, I would love to know what torque mine puts out but it doesnt say on my dyno sheet :/

if you turbod the h6 you would of been laughing

[Finky]
