On paper you should be able to win quite easily, but in practice its a bit different it depends on how good of a driver you are, whether the Stato is an auto or not etc

Even a VZ SS does at best a 13.99 1/4 mile a GTS-T should be able to beat that quite easily.

really ?? thought the hsv enhanced stateo had a 185kw? stock

It does but just because it produces good numbers doesnt mean it can put that power down, only now are Holden able to put down most of the power in their current V8's. The suspension in the VS Stato while being very comfy gives you loads of wheel spin and the inability to put the power down. Also its a VS its at least 14 years old and unlike Skylines most Holden's that age arent maintained very well and it would be lucky to have 150kw left out of the 185kw it came out of the factory with. My VP V6 came out of the factory with 127kw 19 years ago it now has roughly 90kw left.

      Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!

      Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure

      A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins

      Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
