My purple setup with 4.5 novak BL for some serious punch, the 9.5bl in my blue one is more than enuff for a drifter tho.

You'd never find a DJ at the kind of money now, a local perth guy i know paid $460US for a NIB DJ only a month or so ago now. But a bruiser would be worth the loose of a DJ TA03 imo.

Narh tis cool i know the guy , hes over east i brought my blue 03 off him , but ive removed alot of parts and changed CF plates to a rare saddle pack chassis added blue alloy everywhere and CF towers etc the list goes on... Its more fun building your own anyways, and i like a mix of silver and colors, not al one color alloy, its boring imo.

The silvia is one hell of a strong body, full lights and also has blue neons all round.

The corrola vid was a fun one, took me 2 days to get some good footage... car broke the first day... WC is a difficult track with a rally car with a 19x1 in it

The spot with my wheelie is a poor location for riding, out chidlow is where the good free riding is... we tend to go deep into the area to avoid other bikes. Some good old farm land with old dam's with jumps and kickers built into them. But i haven't touched my 50 or my thumpster for 6 months now i rekon.

i like the patch of road there good for wheelies and theres a jump i like but it tends to get boggy for the little bikes.
