oh whats the point the engine has been cooked even if it has got all the goodies inside it it still needs to be completely pulled apart, gearbox diff and sus is prob the only things worth keeping,

Years ago, before EFI, My boss dragged in a burnt out SLR5000 Torana. Insurance job. We put a new carb and water pump housing on it, Barumm, good runner off to new home. So you never know...

Do you know more of the story than us......

From the story we got thru an insider at toyota they had to be cut out of the car.

I doubt that the actutal Toyota TRD car will ever been seen in parts or complete ever again.

That one could be a good shell for a race car, but I'd say due to the heat at least one of the front shocks would be toast,
but from the pic it lokks like they are (were) remote reservoir shocks too.

Careful what is said about the trd altezza, certian people on toyspeed mite cry and moderate, from whats ive heard is that it was damaged well beyond repair, by members of staff trying there driving skills out, but its all been coverd up nicely so the rumor's will continue, would be better thou if toyota nz jsut came out with what really happend

by **Mr Revhead** » Wed Sep 05, 2007 1:30 pm

personally i wouldnt believe much of what rumours say

iv heard:
TNZ wrote it off
manawatu toyota wrote it off
NZPC wrote it off.

and various versions about a complete burn out after hitting a kerb, pole, fence, house and combinations of the above.

the only thing that i know as fact,is its dead and gone. :cry:

i heard osama sent one of the boys to crash a plane into it,

by **barryogen** » Wed Sep 05, 2007 1:54 pm

I heard it was all a conspiracy, and it is actually still fine, they installed a mind control unit in it so that if you see it or hear it, or are even close to it, it wipes your memory of it's existance, that it has goat stains on the passenger seat, and Revhead drives it to work each day

OMG so shiny! · by **Dell'Orto** » Wed Sep 05, 2007 6:34 pm

Actually, I wrote it off doing epic D1's around the square one friday night. My bad.
