[huero95]

Were did u buy ur heads and cam???

[EstebanakaSuperman]

i would give my first born for both!

[buttmanroad]

My GLHT would have Wasted Both

[nitrousninja1]

Are both cars GM?

sorry i live in australia and I have never heard of or seen these things.

I wish i had one though.

[bb40z]

@nitrousninja1 yes both are gm infact both are gmc. they are beautiful trucks syclone was only made in 1991 and typhoon was made only in 1992 and 1993. they are 4.3l engines with a mitsubishi turbo making reported 280 bhp from gm but on dyno was more like 310-330 hp and makes 380-400 lb-ft of tourqe they are also awd.

[nitrousninja1]

@bb40z the australian typhoon is a ford falcon turbo 4.0litre inline six. They are monsters. Although im a mopar and gm person i respect our xr6 turbo etc. Should check it out

[bb40z]

@nitrousninja1 that thing looks trippy. but ive heard that ford is actually pretty good over thier my grandad is from england and has spent most of his life in melbourne i have heard lots about fords in australia. i love the look of the holden commodore and the monaro.

[bb40z]

@MrStreck ur step 5 is wrong cause they are turbo'd stock not supercharged but still sounds sick.

[syclone0124]

[TamiyaRunner]

Those lil fuckers are FAST

[bighipo]

haha hell yeah

[TamiyaRunner]

I want a Typhoon to go with my 4x4 Blazer 2.8 :D

[bighipo]

what year?

[lllTechniqlll]

im sure what years except 1991 for sure.

[BowtieBandit]

I'm pretty sure that they were only made in 1991.

[capitaldar406]

Syclones made in 1991 Typhoons made in 1992 and 1993

[WarsongElite]

2.8 lol i hate that engine.

[lgnsniper]

2.8? There 4.3 Turbocharged.

[lyijysohva]

How you do that boostlaunch? Just push brakes and give her some gas and then stop braking and car speeds like a monster? Doesnt it broke your clutch because tyhpoon is awd and front wheels try to spin but you hold brakes? Nice syclone! Do you know where is typhoons loudspeakers? I have watched many pictures but i havent found any loudspeakers, only player.

[krazycardude]

i guess some people just come to a complete stop then wait a second then floor it and it roars up the street like a mother!!! haha i wish i could find a typhoon with a 5 speed manual for my first car...i've been looking for a cool awd car,i found these and they are pretty cool n FAST but can only find auto. ones.:(

[MikeDunn]

they're only made with auto trans.

[thekiiing630]

They usually run for around 10k. You can find em cheaper. Good luck with the insurance on one tho :P

[TekN9ne07]

@thekiiing630 Lol I have a Typhoon and my insurance rates went waayyy down.

[TekN9ne07]

@thekiiing630 I got it in August 2009 and its now February 24th 2010.

[weewoodeal]

why wud u want a 5 speed

[krazycardude]

Because i find manual transmissions more fun... an automatic is just too easy...i mean really...put it in drive and push the pedal... so yeah i need something else to do haha thats why i like standards better than autos...

[otmshankshank]

durrrrrwsssssrr

[iammalloy]

Sometimes an auto is better. The Ty doesnt have a high redline for one and you cant "just push the peddle" in a high hp auto, you have to roll into it which is challenging bc you have no clutch to compensate. Its easy to overthrottle and have to back peddle. I had a D1 procharged auto z28 and it was fast as shit and a handul. I know a ty is awd so it wouldnt be as bad but you can lite up 4 tires with enough hp. I do love a 5spd too, just some insight for you.

Cheers,

[krazycardude]

Thanks for the info and thought, and yeah auto's can be ALOT of fun too, and im thinkin about getting like a 5.9 jeep grand cherokee auto and souping that up and stuff so it can be like my winter/off road/fun kinda car haha and then another car for summer and daily driver type... maybe but im still not sure but like i said, thanks for all the advice and i hope you get another fun project / fun fast car to have! haha

[drgoodspd]

sweet! sell em to me!

[antiphrasist]

Wow! Hahahahaha

[sonyplaydude]

omg! they look like little toys and then ZOOOOM
