Here's some more I found on one of the ford australia fourms:

Back in 06:


Shaved tailgate:


New Koya rims in 07:


dash shot of the marbalised effect paint:


the 296HP weapon:



I read on the same thread that the current install done by HFM in Toowoomba is worth a staggering $15,000 with all hardware!

Cheers
Marc

Oh, it's 296HP not KW? More believable. Interesting water pump hose adapter too

Don't mind the look of the rear at all, but not sold on the skirts. Cheers for digging up pics!

each to their own, i imagine that there are many ppl that like this car, especially the owner, but again im agreeing with nate here, in my opinion the ugliest part is the spoiler, it literaly ruins the whole car for me. and to 02KQLASER mate your car is (in my opinion) 1000 times better than that toy the impresive power figure (thats only good on a dyno i imagine) does not make the car any better (my 2c)

I personally reckon he should have changed the frontend to mazda-spec and put a buddyclub2 front bar & skirts on it... but thats just my opinion...

What would you say if I said I have seen this being "driven" (and driven hard at that )

15k is heaps!!
but i guess starting with 7k for the turbo kit alone, costs would rise very quickly!
