Yip, you guys really have some serious cars over there, love the old school cars, there is an 8second street legal Nissan GTR over here in SA but I must be honest , the Cortina or Falcon etc is much more exciting to watch.

On the Aus site fullboost.com.au (I am on the site a lot :D ) there is a daily driver Ford Territory ST running low 10's at 221kmh in the quarter, impressive for a 2ton car. I have a 2009 Territory ST, still stock but that 10second car is giving me ideas as reading up on the BARRA 6 it seems they can make good power easily

The Barra has been following in the 2JZ footsteps.Alot of the kits availiable now is to de-stroke to 3.8 to make them rev more.We have a lot of street driven Falcons running 7-800hp.The engines can make decent power with minimal mods.My friend had a Territory in NZ making 650hp,daily driver,even his wife drove it everywhere.
