This is a genuine real McCoy V8 supercar. "Supertaxi" is a slang term used for them.

The suspension in this car is a Morrison live axle 10inch rear diff, GRM build 4 link with watts linkage in the rear

Front is a Paul Morris designed and Paris ascot built wishbone suspension using racer industries upper arms and ascot fabricated lowers.

Rear shocks are ohlins and front shocks are sach. The ohlins are in the rear as they are original GRM. The car started as a strut front end in 2001 and ohlins don't do a conventional shock to suit this setup so Paris used the sach coil over instead.

Awesome thanks mate. Keep up the updates very interested in this

Hopefully this coming week someone at the shop will find time to clean out the inside and get the engine back in.

We've been flat out with customers vehicles recently so haven't had a lot of free time.

Justin at pro wire is going to begin wiring the car next week, the old loom was a mess so a new loom and PDM is being installed.

I've got new windows being cut for it at the moment and Nacca ducts ready to go in.

The diff has been overhauled by diff technics and is right to go now.

So I was able to spend some time on the car today.

New fuel pumps ready to drop in. These are believe it or not straight off the shelf Supercharged VT commodore fuel pumps. Nothing special. They are lifed at 12 month intervals.
