Congrat`s Brad you just made history, now the next important item the Number plate
I have already ordered and stored mine 101 XES, yep 101 x`s, but watch your mirror,
just a last minute question how much does it take to fill the tank? all the best and long and winding roads with no stop signs.

Love the Number plate
I put in 50 Liters yesterday but there was some fuel in the tank so I am thinking that it will hold 65 Liters
Cheers

I saw a shot of the car on its way down to the Nationals and I thought then that it had a terrific stance.
Somehow in these shots it looks even better!!!
I love the way the wheels fill the arches, but even more I love the way the brakes fill the wheels. Brad, it looks bloody superb! Great work everybody ...

not to take anything away as the car looks awesome, but I think maybe it looks 1/2" TOO low. And lose those headrests - my gawd they look horrid!

Don't want to be a wet sock but is it engineered and passed in QLD only ? the rules are strictly different in NSW so I hope you can make them meet there too !
Despite that negative crap....Good Job on getting it regoed ! |

Don't worry Ben, headrests have a purpose and when that purpose is fulfilled, they are removed..ahem!! Set of side pipes will work wonders for the stance. |

Hi Rob
I can't see any reason why these cars wont pass engineering is N.S.W.
You should contact Niel Streeting in Sydney as he is building Customer cars at present
Cheers
Brad

Rob why would a Qld owner of a Qld car get his car engineered and passed to suit NSW and QLD at the same time?
Car looks great Brad. Enjoy it.

Rob, there are currently 4 of us in Victoria with Pace's. Two of us have our cars and two are soon to receive them.
We've already met with an engineer from Enkelmans, a very prominent Victorian engineering firm that does ADR testing as well as ICV's. He thoroughly inspected my car, and was so impressed with the car and all the engineering support documentation that he said there will be absolutely no issue getting the car through engineering and registration.
I'd venture to suggest Vic's standards are every bit as tough as NSW's!
