Tim turns out onto one of the main dualers heading out of cairns at about 20ks he floors it... the revs rise slowly to 4500k then all traction vanishes with the engine just bouncing away happily, he grabs second for the tires to grip hard into the asphalt and catapault its two happy occupants down the road at an alarming rate, im grinning like a cheshire cat. all this power and speed from such a little machine!

22 year old Tim is a local resident of Cairns, A fairly large tourist town just up from the Gold Coast in Australia. he works at Autobarn Australia's equivalent of Halfords but allot better you could say. After owning a string of powerful rear wheel drives, 1 v8 Holden ute and a Toyota Aristo which he managed to blow the engine in likes the idea of front wheel drive "because they don't chew the tires out so much." He is a toyota man and drives to work in this ep daily.

Australians usually take a more thorough approach to how they build their cars naturally. Tim's car is no exception, he bought the car in September 07 and in that time he has graced the car with a decent engine and turbo setup which he is refining daily but not without problems rearing their ugly head on a frequent basis.
