Bit of fun with my son and a mate of his in the Glasshouse Mountain area.

Sweet! Turbocharged H3! How's the power with the Turbo?

First time it has fired a shot in anger since the turbo was fitted and went well. Was concerned I might lose a bit of engine braking downhill but seemed pretty much the same and heaps more power when needed.

Hi Trey124,
The reaction here is still unreal. I have had mine since October when there really were not many around. People would stop and stare, had guys taking pics on their phones as I was driving down the h/way, people looking at it when you came out of shops etc.
Not quite such a novelty now as a few more are getting around. If you go past a modified 4WD you can still guarantee the guy will be rubber neck.
Now I am getting added attention which I don't want every time the bloody blow off valve goes off! Gotta change that damn thing.

Looks like you wheel the piss out of that thing, awesome.
Any engine shots?
Can you also please share the backspacing on your wheels?

Hi GarrettMoore,
I may have posted these before on the turbo thread...sorry if that is the case.
There iare no backspacers on the rims. The rims have an offset to allow room for the rancho kit which hits on the standard rims, and sorry I can not remember offhand what it is..I'll let you know.

Thanks rhill20. I have tried to keep it neat, clean and mean. Next round of improvements will be harder. Concealed winch bullbar which will require the turbo intercooler to be shifted, custom roof rack with lights which I have in design stage and custom snorkel which will be the most challenging of the lot as it will also probably mean designing and building a custom airbox to house the filter, in the front guard and then working the snorkel from there.
