that thing would kill any stock and mildly worked v6 commodore in a drag or burnout comp, there an absolute weapon. my best party trick in onw of those is doing 50 kay an hour and planting it in first with the brake on, instant twin wheeled fishies and donuts!

Just to make it look a bit better really. No heavy mods are going to be done.

I'm not a big fan of those excessively large rims nor chrome so 18's will do fine. I don't understand how people like those chrome grills for the lux. I hate 'em.
If we find a pot of gold, we may stick a s/c on it. Thats the dream anyway.

They also come with a $65000 price tag. I'd buy a clubby or maloo instead.

Nice car.  The only thing letting it down is the stockies. :P
For the record, we have a '95 Hilux, 4 cylinder 2.5L diesel dual cab 4WD...its not a bad car to drive, only problems are that its as gutless as all Hell, plus I can't stand the "riding up high" position, and don't know why the hell people buy 4WDs just because of it!!! (not saying that anyone here does, just that most yuppies buy 'em simply for the high driving position)
