Custom spec Carl Rossler built Terminator-4 street & strip 4L80E transmission.
Built for 1,400hp I believe. Neck snapping, instant shifts, tyre chirping fun!

Thanks man! nah, not yet, maybe one day, more of a hoon culture down here, just think Mad Mad styles all over wild roads lol. Had a mate with one of those "in car" readers. I believe it was G-Tech meter? supposed to be accurate to within +/- 0.01 seconds. We took it out for a bit of a laugh out in the whopwhops and clocked a 12.3 @ around 110?mph (if I remember correctly). Fully loaded, no weight reduction and 2 x 100% Kiwi lean beef males in the c0ckpit. But, alas, nothing "official". I'm keen to line up a t56 regular cab one day and show 'em the tail lights. When I do get down the 1/4 I'll be sure to post what it does. If I took away my 240lb mate, had less fuel and in the right conditions, high 11s look very possible and that's with stock tyres (45 series).
I like the look of the Batram, but I'm a racer at heart, so I voted accordingly. High mileage and drive the shit out of them and mod them to your taste is my motto.
Very close indeed! The QC fan club has come back well, where's my RC clang and love?! For the record, the Batram gets the absolute shlt driven out of it hahaha, ask anyone + the skid pics/vids speak for themselves. I love it!
Here's something most don't know or have seen, the right hand drive conversion. A lot of effort to land this 1,600miles away and then make it "road legal". That's ONLY thing I dislike about this truck, getting parts and stuff is expensive and not easy! But, well worth it!
Freshly landed sitting at the import holding area/zone.
Filthy from transit.....poor thing lol
