Very nice dash and engine though.

i'd say you can see the clutch and brake, accelerator will be hidden behind them, one of those little 'wheel' type ones i guess...

Hmm, yeah on closer inspection i think i can see it just behind the brake pedal.
But don't just think 'hey its an oval, it cant be auto'... they did change the engine.

wat u cant see is a detailed billet roller ball pedal behind the brake pedal. all the knobs are billet too for the power windows, central locking etc, heater etc. all made by the owner on his lathe. the engine was sourced from NZ im pretty sure, out of a sand rail maybe? all i know is that its gots some serious power.

did i mention this is a daily driver?

Fuel injected....???

Where are the injectors on those Throttle bodies/inlet manifolds...and the wire loom?? Is that a fuel pressure regulator i see on the fire wall? mmmmmm me thinks it is carbied...not EFI...

Other then that....A GREAT CAR...not to be overlooked...EFI or No EFI...SUPURB!

just to clarify, i took those pics before he went fuel injected, i think the carbies were being starved by the porsche fan or sumthing, and yes the car is comprehensively insured and for a fair amount of $$ too.

So it must have weighed from the factory 933 Kgs😉 933x3=2.8

Hi vw0064

No need to get upset about it, its a NSW RTA rule, stock factory weight X 3 for a NA motor or stock factory weight X 2.5 for a forced induction motors. Maybe theres a loophole he snuck through? If there is Id like to know about it.

Hope the bloke who's car it is wasn't thinking of joining Aussieveedubbers !
All the negativity would put you off !
I for one like tha car and think he's done a great job.
Street rego'd with that engine in it ! Good for him. If he has managed to do it and others have got stuck no need to be bitter. Should be supportive not just shoot him down !
He might just be able to help others if he found ways round / loop holes in things !
They did it themselves.
Just my 2 cents worth.
