Default My Tuff E series cars over the years, lots of pics

Well i thought it only fair to share some of my tuff E series streeters over the years, Hope you get some enjoyment out of them as i certainly did, especially the EA Ghia with 500hp back in 1999 to 2002 before the BA was released. You guys have it easy now days as back than everything had to be custom made and there was few Falcon turbos. My EA was an original AIT turbo built by Mike Vine who was a guru with falcon turbos. I also use to talk with the guys at Motsons Turbos in Brisbane. There was not much on the road that would keep up with it including the BA turbo when it came out Cheers Shane

Thats like looking at the playboy mansion and asking which blonde bimbo did you like best?

The EA Ghia i built the entire car, including the engine, turbo set up, interior, wheels, diff, transmission, bodykit and had alot of fun in it. The sound that came out of it was like nothing else. The EB GT was nice but lacked power and brakes. The VN SS Group A was a race car on the street. 6 speed ZF box, big brakes, light, made 180rwkw STD 215kw fly and felt like a very special car.

In the end they all had there good bits but it would be the EA Ghia by a nose

Yeah it is an LTD rear seat well noticed, also LTD door trims with the perforated leather inserts. The wood grain on the LTD is the same as the EB GT. The rear seats fit straight in but the corner parts dont as they are longer. I had to modify it to fit to keep it all looking the same

Awesome car mate, just read the build on the ED T3, is it still for sale? If so how much? Would be a handful in that ED body, have you ever raced it or had it on the dyno?
