I've done the offroad racing with an aircooled VW in a tube frame buggy chasis. Did a little circle track stuff with it also. Between my brother-in-law and me we have over 50 aircooled VW's in various states of repair/disrepair. I have a street bike that is the definition of a "slider bike", "81 GL500 Honda Silverwing. Also have street Baja bug. If I can find some pictures I'll add them later.

What's a Holden ute, and a Fraser 7?

Brett · « **Reply #8 on:** May 27, 2005, 02:02:25 PM »

Timbowe you have to put a pick in of the holden commodore to show the others what they are missing out on. They are nothing like the oversized US stuff, they run the US 5.7 liter motor same as the corvettes.
As for my toys: Nissan Patrol - 35 inch muddies/locka/goes anywhere, VL Turbo commodore - custom spaghetti exhaust manifold, 91 kx500, two gokarts - 5 motors one bored and stroked from 100cc to 124cc for open class racing. And in the shed: custom three wheeler that old man made and is licensed for road, 2 x CNC Lathes, 1 x conventional lathe, milling machine, furnace, kiln, and probably over 500 pistons in various states of manufacture.

Well your all sorted then! 1 or 2 pics of a the ute in gallery. 1150 kgs 230 kw. metric. Last of the 5 litre motors. Nearly sorted. Needs programmable chip. Fraser 7 is a locally produced Lotus 7 type race car for the road. Toyota 3 sge 2 litre with fuel injection removed and running 45 mm DCOE Webber carbs. Trick cams [lobes ground off then replaced in different position]. Ported, with a skim shaved off the bottom of the head. 10.5-1 comp. 235 hp 550 kg. Est 0-100 km under 5 seconds. Kx5s taking up most of my time at the mo tho. Fraser 7 back burnered at this time.

Here's my list of things I've never been able to let go of...97 KX 500(of course), 1980 Chevy LUV 4X4 with Buick 231 V6 w/Edelbrock 600 and Intake/Cam kit, serious head work, headers and dual flowmaster exhaust, Chevy T-350 tranny with Hurst shift kit, Toyota springs and axles, and 36" Super Swampers. Then there's the wifes car which is a '91 Honda Accord EX 4dr with TEIN springs, 17" whls, cold air intake and pretty decent stereo(Pioneer Premier Deck/Rockford Fosgate amps and 10" subs etc.), JDM corner lights, and custom one-of-kind grill. Next would be the 1990 Nissan Hardbody King-Cab that I used to do minitruck/import shows with when it was in its prime w/ cab-high windowless snug-top, sits 1 5/8" off the ground at ride-height on 16" custom wheels, and 40\45 series tires, '97 grill and mirrors, which has been sitting on the back burner for about 3 years now along with the '66 VW Bug with 4pt rollbar, shaved door handles, shaved dash with custom interior, shaved turn signals, louvered decklid, that is slammed on stock 15" wheels in the rear and custom widened 14" Bus wheels in the front with adjustable front beam, shaved bumpers, cal-look windows, welded in crank sunroof plus more, which has been on the back burner for the last 8 years. Well thats all of them with readers digest version descriptions. I have picks of the KX and the LUV in the Gallery, #25, I'll have to dig up some older photos of the rest and scan them in later and add them to my gallery since the bug and nissan are in storage. Ive been hanging on to the Nissan and Bug because both will be full show vehicles when life gets better
