Bizkets is Drunk? Too heavy needs boost Member 5,929 Member For: 11y 10m 29d Gender: Male Location: Adelaide Posted 25/09/13 11:26 AM Share Posted 25/09/13 11:26 AM I had one. Ba xr8 mk2 and I loves it didn't handle very well like the 6t but u cant beat the noise. Holdens have a tinny sound. Not much down low but cams , exhaust and tune they go pretty bloody good for as u call it a (boat anchor).
