I wanted a new desktop background for the computer, so decided to mess around with the camera yesterday. Thought id post up some of the pics.

I'm no professional photographer, but I would say these are quite a bit better than the iphone pics we usually post.

Hope you Enjoy!





























Cheers!

Finally got it to the track. Not the best video, but you get the idea!

11.6 @ 120.79

Next time we are going to bring a set of drag radials, cause it was spinning pretty bad with the street tires.

did you leave it AWD? if so it will hook awsome with DRs on all 4s.

i hate to see a typhoon go the rout of non turboed but its still a cool build I have always wanted to get a hold typhoon and build it up, they are wicked fast even with the 4.3 turbo

still a cool ride though

Yep, it is still AWD.

And we are running a turbo on this build (Turbonetics TC78). Turn your volume up, and you can hear it spooling like crazy in the video.

A truly awesome car.

A question. How did You fit the Z06 brakes and the other rims? Also what type of suspension do You use?

I had a new Typhoon (white/white 1993) back in 1995 and still miss it a lot. Have plans to purschase a ty or sy again to do some kind of project and saw Your awesome truck.

Regards
J
