Browsing: Burnouts

Colin Byrne has built what can only be described as The World’s Most Insane 200 Series Toyota Landcruiser.

Colin mentioned the build a few years ago and has done an exceptional job on the build but more so keeping it quiet.

When photo’s were released this week it’s safe to say they went VIRAL… With numerous Facbeook and Instagram pages sharing the pictures.

I’m confident we’ve never seen a more insane 200 Series Landcruiser anywhere on the planet and it’s easy to see why.

The Landcruiser started life as a 2009 Sahara which was extensively damaged. The car received a Full Chassis, with Airbags on all 4 corners to fit those massive 24 inch wheels. The interior is almost as it was released from the Factory apart from the Racepak hidden behind the factory display.

Upfront is where the action is, running a Supercharged 540 Cube Big Block Chev, 8/71 Supercharger, Enderle Hat with Mechanical Injection and tuned by ADR Engines with a 2 Speed Glide and a 40 Spline 9 Inch Diff by Final Drive.

The majority of the Chassis and Exhaust work was completed by Race On Customs and Lethal Industries here in WA.

With the plates titled “KINGCRUZA” it’s easy to see why.

According to Colin the car won’t be doing a burnout at Motorvation as they sort through a few teething issues with the car but we hope to bring you some Test & Tune Burnouts some time very soon.

I was invited along to Mike’s Dyno to film Chad Douglas’s awesome Twin Turbo Commodore Ute “2MENTAL” as the team sort through the Tune on this Fuel Injected Methanol burning weapon.

Running a 360 cube LQ9 based engine with Trickflow Heads and Twin 80mm Turbos the car is purpose built for burnouts.

Chad recently switched to a Haltech Computer and Display which has meant an entirely new tune is required. Initial dyno testing prior to Christmas highlighted anelectrical issue with the car which prevented any revs being around 4,500rpm.

Chad and his tuner (Josh) fixed this issue and returned last night to finally get some AFR’s sorted. The car is still long way from being 100% as they have now identified a fuel pressure / injector issue which is preventing sufficient fuel under boost.

The decision was made to limit to Boost to 12psi which saw a very conservative 874rwhp, which is more than enough to get some road testing completed at Motorvation this weekend.
