Remember the gold 'BOOYA' Magna from the AIR Nat's?

[whatsisname]

For those that remember the gold mid/late 90's 3.0L V6 Magna (rego: BOOYA) from the 4, 6 and Rotary Nationals... it looks like he decided to get serious! He was on the SA part of our forum for a short while too.

[moo_r32]

damn look at that cooler!......whats the story wit the NT plates, im sure i saw him crisin round a couple of weekends ago......?

[Guest RedLineGTR]

dam... that has a hella alot of work done very nice

[Abo Bob]

Fwd.

[moo_r32]

FWD........nuf said!!!

needs pumped front and rear quarters maybe a widebody kit n sum deap dish rims and.....ummm.........its a magna

damn look at that cooler

[Maxx]

looks like a chaser, pity it's a FWD

[Nightcrawler]

looks like the photos were taken here at Wayville Showgrounds, with the Truckworks tow truck in the background of one pics, and a GTS Monaro with SA plates in another pic. Wasn't there a Street Machine show or something the other week at Wayville? Methinks he was down here for that. He is from Alice Springs fyi, and seemed like a nice enough bloke to talk to, but got mighty defensive (as I would too) when some of us bagged him on the forums for having a Magna

[skidmark]

yes it was at wayvill a few weeks back

[Steve]

looks like someone has a case of 'bigger is better' syndrome. its sort of like the ultimate rice:p wonder how big his BOV is?

[EnricoPalazzo]

no one bagged him for the magna, it was that his mods and claimed hp he had wer bs.

[Freebaggin]

Should have bought a wagon and called it 'Boonga'.......or is that old hat now?

What power? Looks like 600HP potential.

[TIMMMAYYY]

hahahah freebaggin.

someone should have told him that if he ran at AIR with his exhaust on, he would have run high 16s, instead of low 17s, with his "jumping off the dyno 249fwhp"

[moo_r32]

that last photo slightly resembles a (im gona go down for this) 4 door r34 a bit i reccon

i/we bagg him for the choise of car and so fawth but deep down i got ->restecpa<- for him and what he has done wit it.

[EnricoPalazzo]

no the baggin was due to wat timmayy said...

[TIMMMAYYY]

i was right thou dean

[whatsisname]

By the 'looks' of the modifications this thing has big hp potential! It's got a pretty big turbo, huge FMIC, serious fuel system (custom rail and just look at the hardware in the boot!) it even has a custom plenum. If the internals have been upgraded then it would be very interesting to see just how much grunt this engine makes? A turbocharged 3.0L V6 would have a bucketload of torque too.

[Chris32]

its a Magna...........and its FWD

no more explanation needed

[chops]

Yeah, big HP and FWD are a scary combination.

Remember Nightcrawler test driving a hotted up turbo cordia many moons ago, me in the passenger seat, and this thing hitting boost and swapping lanes on us in the blink of an eye!

Never again I said.

[Nightcrawler]

yes that was certainly one of the scaries moments I have had in a car ..... luckily we were on MacIntyre Road and there was a lane to spare, otherwise we'd have been toast. I obviously didn't buy it after that experience.

[hippy]

hey i saw that car here quite a while ago ... he used to have a huuuuge wing ... LOL i guess all the baggin on this forum made him take it off ... but how much would all those mods cost to do?? and only 240fwhp .... thats like 180fwkw ... hardly seems worth it??
