OWNERS - NICK HOLDEN (New South Wales)

Nick Holden imported VIN 10927 from Ohio, USA in 2004. He is the 3rd owner of the vehicle, and in the following years it has undergone a frame-up restoration and RHD conversion after having been stored in a shed for over 10 years with only 17000 miles on the clock.

Some of the modifications during the rebuild are: Koni suspension, rebuilt brake system, door launchers with remote start function, custom dash board and instrument cluster, custom leather interior, Ferrari-style gear shift gate, DVD-style head unit with reversing camera.

Engine: After fitting a supercharger to the standard PRV it was discovered that the engine, due to lack of use, required a full rebuild. Instead of rebuilding the standard PRV, the internals (pistons, cams rods) and turbo + manifold of a Renault GTA 2.5L turbo were imported from the UK and fitted into the original PRV engine. This was coupled with a programmable Haltech EFI set up with an electronic boost controller, electric water pump, custom exhaust and a water to air intercooler. This set up has not yet been on the dyno but based upon UK specs should be good for 250+ HP at the flywheel. 24 February, 2008.
