I Might be wrong but there was a very simular 420GSI Turbo that was at POL earlier this year, see my pictures below.

Can you identify it?

That's my mates old 1, that's been dead a long time now, was a bit of a monster back then :drive:

that one was aswell lol

It was a t25 housing that had been modified. This was back in the day before it became popular to do this and everyone just assumed it was just a standard t25.

So, HAZ is dead then ?

Yes HAZ Died a few years back now
..the shell wasn't holding up too well, so it all got converted into a zr, shortly after that I had the t25 hybrid and the exhaust system.off HAZ to put on my carribean blue 420, the same day I wrote the car off

So then my first bubble turbo was born, went like stink with that turbo :drive:

Posted: **Mon Nov 24, 2014 11:02 pm**

one of the last times I saw it about I think the wheels was painted black and it had a dent in the wing

Posted: **Tue Nov 25, 2014 1:03 am**

All this talk about 420gsiT's is making me want mine out. But its still work in progress. Just shy of a few bits I keep getting the feeling mine will be out once all rest have died

Just a taste of what's gone in. I don't know if ill get image up
