Just scored a 1977 HX Premier for free from mrs' uncle.

Anyone know much about them?

No V8 holden/ford falcodore bashing allowed.

This will be my next project...after the corolla

Yeap... their old

But seriously, sounds like a good score for free. What sort of condition is it in? Does it run? V8 or 6 cyl or no motor at all haha?

by **xsspeed** » Wed Jul 30, 2008 5:02 pm

LOL

its got a 202, motor already out though, might have a 308 I can chuck in.

I have been planning this project for a while, so have plenty of idea's. All with readily available parts.

If anyone saw the Red HQ in NZV8 mag last month you have an idea what road I plan to go down. Either that or a f*** off ls2 with a blower hanging off, but thats some serious moolah right there.

You forgot the 1UZ after the Twin Turbo

I'm just from the thinking that you have two banks, you gotta put two really large turbos on there... or one funky "through the bonnet" piping, and mount one where the blower "should" go.

by **xsspeed** » Wed Jul 30, 2008 5:26 pm

I have pretty much set on no through bonnet blower or pipes, doesn't do it for me looks wise.

Thats why its good that you can get CAPA blwer kits that hang off the side of the efi motors, there I go revealing to much...

Why would you? Smallblock Chev is a far more awesome candidate.

572 CID crate motor

Good score for free!!

Sedan.

A V8 one is pretty much a 4-door GTS, but this only has 202ci mototr atm.

Luckily the 308 bolts straight in (so i have been told)

yeah stoked to get it for free, apparently at his mates place in palmy, says he's a good c*** so fingers crossed its still there in the barn
