At the rate that the Wheelworx Motorsport support team and crew is growing team owner JV was getting sick of paying all the airfairs for the crew to travel interstate.

The solution was to build a pimped out bus that can be used to transport crew interstate for Drift Australia rounds and demonstrations.

It all starts with a Toyota Hiace van that has been sitting around for a few years.

The palns are big and if all goes well the pimped tour bus should be making its debut at the last round of Drift Australia at Oran Park later this year.

So far the bus has been striped to a shell and it has only been two days.

The palns as yet are:

New motor => It will be revieled later in the build.
Comfortable 11 seat capacity
Big flat pannel TV which will fold down from the roof
Xbox or PS3
Tubbed to fit 20's with load rated tyres
Custom WW paint and decals
Full re-trim with sound deading
Custom sound system with many subs
12v power outlets for every seat
Chrome tint for private meetings at the track => *cough* bangbus.com *cough*
Many more to come.

Here is some photos from the last two days.

The boys making plans for cool mods

I have no idea what R-spec is doing in this photo but i suspect the others evacuated straight after.

The boys pretending there playing Xbox

As you can see the interior is rubish so its all being repalced with custom trim and new seats.

Old seized motor

On the hoist for some "pimp my ride" style stripping of the interior

As you can see the motor was not in good shape, Lucky R-Spec had it on the hoist and out of the car in 30min.

JV removing the trim

HMMMM What could we fit in here?

Crazy aircon for those hot days
Posted Image

Out mate from Racespec sussing out if he can ge a bodykit to fit it.

Thats all for now. Stay tuned.

whatever engine u use, Bee-R limiter is mandatory.. (except if u end up using a diesel, in which case it wouldn't work due to no ignition system to speak of)
