Anyone know anything about this car? So far I know its fast but just curious if anyone else knows anything else about it, got to be one of the quicker gt's out there I would think.

See NZPC - a fair few issues ago (I think).
Will have a look thru back issues tomorrow........

13.1 and 140kW? There must be plenty faster/more powerful than that. I wonder what happened to Dwayne De Costa's old one (the bodykit.co.nz one) that was build by quest 4? that thing was nuts, 11's and 180kW on a stock block with a MHG....

I would be very interested to see that mag (marlboro) let me know what issue thanks.

My sister just bought the car.

damn these things can go.

Unless that thing ran DOT tyres or better theres no way in hell a front skidder like a ep82 would do 13.1 with only 167km/h

De Costa? I assume you mean O'Hara?

Car is still around and owned by him, just on the back burner for now.

I'm sure it was de costa, but I certainly could be wrong, it was quite a while ago. He definitely doesn't look like a "de costa"

Yeah i havent seen it on paper so it may not be true, Its fast though I can tell ya that

I doubt that a td04 would put out enough power for a 13.1, once you get down to mid 13's in a starlet its very hard work dropping your time, would have to be a crazy quick 60 ft time as well for that trap speed.

Also dwayne got his car up to 211kw atw on the stock engine
