TUFSIG, GK Sigma GSR 2.6 EFI Turbo

[TUFSIG]

They are just on there till i finnish the engine work i didnt wana scratch my peppers
i prefer turbos on scorpions and gh's not that much of a fan of them on GK but im going to get them pollished up too so ill see what looks best

[81GH]

yeah i guess its what car its going on

i put my spare peppers on the cordia, cos need rims and tyres for something else.

look freaking hideous lol

[GB_BB4C]

Turbo rims dont really suit GJ onwards. Pepperpot's dont really suit GE's and GH's.
Thats my opinion anyway. Your car do what you want.

[TUFSIG]

im sticking with pepper pots they just look too good to not have on the GSR plus they are the factory rims

[TUFSIG]

its been a while since ive been on but just giving an update car has been workshop hopping atm getting things done like custom cooler and some shit for getting my new diff and some other electrical things also booked in for march to get sprayed so things are still moving slowly oh and also the engineers cert

but it will come together soon enough

[75wagon]

Good to hear.
I was starting to wonder what was happening with TUFSIG?

also booked in for march to get sprayed

Ah, the job has got bigger I see.
Same colour?

Yeah im not around much new job takes up all my time prob why TUFSIG has not been finished and on the road yet but im in no rush i have the 3000gt
and yeah getting bare metal done in original colour

new trims and sidemoulds i was able to find a shed full of original mitsu gsr bumpers and moulds in NSW near my uncles house that i picked up for a good pirce
that included all new red stripes
front and rear bumper in plastic
windows and screen trims
front griller
rear light garnihs and a brand new drivers seat in a box

so over the next 3 months ill start to prorp the car for paint and we shall go from there

[75wagon]

That sounds like a great find. I wish I could find a stash like that?

By the sound of it, with the new parts, the respray, and your attention to detail. TUFSIG should look as good as new

Dave...

[TUFSIG]

yep thats the idea get it back to how it was when it came off the production line just with a little bit more power
i think prob the most valuable part that i got in that shed was a new in box gsr rear and front spoiler

they will go on when it gets painted

[81GH]

that sounds like a good treasure 2 find. Wuld u hav spares? I need sum 2 get my baby goin again.

[TUFSIG]

yeah i have a couple but it would prob be cheaper to get them in SA, top ost them from here wouldnt be cheap

[DanTurboLancer]

Hey Luke, How is your beast coming man??

Whats your timeline?

[TUFSIG]

well its not far off from running but then i need the diff and then the paint job so a little while yet plus im doing stuff to the 3000gt too so im in no rush lol

[DanTurboLancer]

3000gt...Whats that?
Sounds like a hairdressers car??


When TUFSIG is getting sideways in 4th you'll quickly forget about the 3000

[TUFSIG]

nah pretty rare aus delivered 3000gt twin turbo its mad fun TUFSIG will be faster lol

[BlueThunder]

nah pretty rare aus delivered 3000gt twin turbo its mad fun TUFSIG will be faster lol

Maybe you should get it chipped then? I know it has about 286 HP stock, but it's limited to that. The 6G72 has a lot more potential. Could also be that the stock turbo's are too small tho... Read that on the internet somewhere as far as i can remember. :s

Cheers

[DanTurboLancer]

Im sure it is quick enough for a daily driver

[TUFSIG]

yeah dan pretty much i mean if i get the shift right it will do 0 - 100 in 5 sec

[GC75]

[TUFSIG]

Glad to hear you're back into it again

I think I gave up on my wagon for a good 6 months or more when I was doing it. I actually almost gave up on it

Dave...

[TUFSIG]
