it would be a tall order to be saying that about ya car. but the grape vine does wonders for image!

All too true.

The car made a cameo appearance down here in Coffs last weekend. I too have heard that the car is quick, but outside of it being a GTST, I have no idea.

I have seen it run against a laser with a t04 turbo, lets jus say the laser waved byebye to him.. hence not so quick.

yes i know the owner his name is martin and he's spent shit loads of money on the car it has the works, big turbo and much more. car still only has standard internals (or so i'm told) it ran my mates 33 at willowbank and i was suprised at what time it ran, thought it would be quicker for the amount of money that has been spent. i think he's still sorting the performance of the car out.

DRAGME was sitting in 101motorcafe for a very long time.....dont know what's done to it though...but there was rollcages in the car

101 Motorcafe are not know for producing powerful/fast cars. They do normal service work and fitting of aftermarket bolt-on parts. Yes the owners have fast/powerful cars but that not the result of them doing the work themselves (at 101). Its the result of them taking it to a workshop around the corner from Autobarn at slacks creek. So if there was any work done on DRAGME, it might have come from the same garage....

    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
