The Galaxy belongs to a dude on another forum I'm on and AFAIK he's not too keen on posting pics for some reason...?
It's a gorgeous car though [8D]
Isn't it the Gal that was built by street machine and given away a few years back?

Ah! I forgot . knobs too eager to get the foot into it make any amount of hard work an engine builder does completely pointless.Quote:

Its like after every shift I have ever worked, at any job. these fuckers jump straight in their cars, smack it into gear and cane the fuck out of it up the road to get home!?!?
Takes a good few min of driving with a light pedal to warm the engine up to operating temp, these tools pay 40 - 60k for a car and beat the snot out of it like that every day and wonder why shit goes wrong!
The only smart thing I saw done for a mate of mine that had a rotary was to limit the revs to something grandma like cause he could see a dick head coming a mile away

X a brazillion! Any more of her Cruise?
