XITMNT- BA XR6 Turbo @ DRAGTAG 5 July

XR-ENVI · 03-07-2006, 08:12 PM

a few people have shown interest in this car and thought i would just mention that it may be on show at Drag Tag (ainslie road campbellfeild) this coming wednesday night for those who would like to see it in the flesh, it is defiantely worth a look. Big congrats to Damien at G-TECH and Zac at Climax Custom Airbrushing for such an awesome looking machine!!!!!

It's actually an XR6T with a FPV kit.

i think that that may be changing!

XR-ENVI · 04-07-2006, 04:46 PM

see also the AUto showoff pics thread in the pub

"GTECH's "XITMNT" dynoed 426rwkw without any tune being doen since it was moded, and a really quick squirt on the accelorator before it leaned ou ttoo much and they decided to shut it down ( it made this power at only 100ks in a true test they usually run them up to about 200ks!!!). This thing is going to be an absolute weapon once its tuned properly, will keep you posted!!"

needfordspeed · 04-07-2006, 05:06 PM

On another forum the owner says it made 423rwkw and they were only revving it to around 3500-4000 RPM!!! It's still tuned for the old setup apparantly, this thing is gonna be a weapon, I wanna see what it'll make once it's tuned up properly!

XR-ENVI · 04-07-2006, 05:10 PM

sorry i gave it 3rwkw more than it did!!! Before it was all redone it was making some good power but the transmission just couldnt cope, and also more often than not it would also loose traction on the dyno.
As i mentioned it was only given a really quick squirt on the dyno ( to 3500-4000 revs) and i know that Damien at GTECH PERFORMANCE is very keen to get the car tuned and running and making high numbers very very soon.

GO GTECH!!!!

XRchic · 05-07-2006, 01:03 PM

I dont think anyone here is going to be in a rush to go to DragTag.

The car isnt there to go on the dyno it is there for people to look at and check out what has been done to it
I am not interested in my car going on the dynos at drag-tag but i still go and watch

I dont think chris would mind a little bit of advertising for GTECH, even if it is at Drag Tag

Holy mother of god, that Turbo looks massive.

Bloody nice loooking XR6T too.

Dazza XLT · 05-07-2006, 03:48 PM

Somewhere out there, there is a Cummins Signature Motor out of a Mack Titan missing its turbo... Bohemith

EL_futuraistic · 05-07-2006, 05:34 PM

that is a monster turbo......

ReVd_uP · 05-07-2006, 05:37 PM

that car was at my work only a few months ago, its changed heaps, when i saw it it had the stock bodykit, turbo and intake manifold from memory... and it was a weapon then, now it would be scary fast

vino3o2 · 05-07-2006, 06:08 PM

423rwkw!!! and it was only given a squirt on the dyno!!! Holy @#$%!!!!!

XR-ENVI · 06-07-2006, 09:14 PM

Saw it wednesday night. very impressive engine bay. Would be great to see it run when it does 1 day. Drag tag was good to watch for a bit, but after you've seen the same 12 cars run 10 times it gets a bit old!

ned · 07-07-2006, 02:15 AM

I've heard other exciting things about this car, but I'll leave that for someone else to tell :P Apart from that I've seen it in action on the road and.... ummm.... yeah ;)

XRQTOR · 07-07-2006, 04:35 PM

Putting the GT wheels on another car is one thing, putting the kit on another i don't like but each to there own. Badging the bloody thing as a FPV is stupid and the driver need's a good smack around the ear's.

Still a very clean looking car.

And this is a big turbo,

Stunning example of a T. Congrats to owner!! But as someone else said, I don't think many will rush to that place to view it. I sure as hell wont. Hopefully at another show in near future!!

exactly why we went off the idea of a typhoon bar. but i think that the owner of this one loves the look of the GT but the performace just wasnt the standard he was used to and when you can build a car to be individual and to confuse the hell out of people why not, withthe bonnet on it is defiantley confusing. it isnt badged as a GT. WE have FPV badges on our car too cos its a performance vehicle and its a ford!!!

XR-ENVI · 07-07-2006, 05:14 PM

strange how one minute everyone is saying go to drag tag and sign up and the next saying not to go. i will be there supporting GTECH not supporting drag tag, i wouldnt put my car on it, even when it was said to be so fantastic but i will still go to watch every now and then

Not strange at all. You already know my opinion on the place. I think initially the concept was appealing and now that some have experienced it, we have learned and have moved on.

XR-ENVI · 07-07-2006, 07:44 PM

XITMNT and XRENVI will not be at Drag Tag Saturday

Agent86 · 08-07-2006, 10:50 AM

After attending Dag-Tag at the request of a mate who had some passes to get in, all i can say is what a waste of time. if it wasnt for the car BS talking after, it would have been a total loss. it seems that cars with a bit of power and auto's ( hence hi-stall) seem to 'confuse' the system.

i'll keep mine on the blacktop thankyou...

XR-ENVI · 08-07-2006, 01:05 PM

PLease address all bagging of drag-tag to the following thread............

Rather than Hijacking this one which is about XITMNT and not about the good and bads of Drag Tag

Awesome car it is too BUMP ...

graham_h · 02-01-2012, 10:50 PM

any more pics as the originals have gone ?

Bossxr8 · 03-01-2012, 03:10 PM

Drag tag. Whatever happened to that.

I'd assume it shut down?

xisled · 03-01-2012, 05:56 PM

Basically they sell driving simulations now. They do not let the public in like they used to.
