Qman Posted May 8, 2005 Share Posted May 8, 2005 This is the red XT6 that was for sale a little while ago. I swapped all my parts over to this body. The motor runs out very well with the new cams. I still need to fine tune it but it flat hauls. Definitely will need to upgrade to better tires. The 3" exhaust howls when the go pedal hits the floor. We are prepping it for the rallyx's in Oregon. The interior is stripped from behind the front seats. I installed Legacy front suspension with new GR2's front and rear. It's got Legacy front brakes and Toyota Supra rear disc brakes. Can you say rear e-brake?!?! Still have a few little things to do but I am happy with it so far. Need to give it a bath then pics will follow.

Turbone Posted May 8, 2005 Share Posted May 8, 2005 When you left my place today and hit the main road, I could hear you hit the go pedal. For some reason, when I heard it, the first thing I thought of was a racing MG (on steroids) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason, when I heard it, the first thing I thought of was a racing MG (on steroids) That can't be a bad thing, can it? The 3" exhaust really has a sound all it's own.

ezapar Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 Very pretty noise out of the rear, all eyes will be on it when it hits the track. I would be the co-driver, lucky me indeed! It'll look much better with mudders on it, trust me. Supposed to rain this weekend in Hilsboro eh? Next pics of it will be muddy ones!

ezapar Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 Not sure how fast I was goin', but I saw 4 grand in 5th gear as I merged onto the freeway from the on ramp. That was after stopping to a dead stop first. Gets up pretty quick. Nice and noisy at 6000 rpms!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
