Gaz6002 Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Just want to say a quick thank you to Pete at Thor Racing. I went up there on Wednesday to pick up my car after he sorted out some nasty little intermittant electrical gremlins I had with her. When I arrived he picked me up from a station just around the corner and gave me a lift to the premesis. We then spent at least an hour chatting whilst he took me around some of the various projects that are on-going there at present. I wasn't aware just how much bespoke and specialist work they undertake! There were several 3L skylines in various stages of development, big power single turbo Supras, a beautiful ST185 Celica running some sweet and well thought out big power mods, some Beams engine-based projects and even some ultra-cool retro cars along with a bit of a mental looking Lexus that I imagine we'll be seeing a lot more of. Oh, and my baby of course The one thing that impressed me more than anything though was the quality and attention to detail in the fabrication and engine building department. Everything was well organised and clean and it just felt like a high-end professional tuning firm. I just wish I'd brought a camera along so you could see what I mean!

Gaz6002 Posted December 14, 2007 Author Share Posted December 14, 2007 Are they in new premises now then? No idea, I was a Thor virgin. They've got a quite a large amount of space though and a few workshops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mk47 Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Must be new then, was a small place when I went. May have to check it out. The place where the dyno day was held is now the tuning area along with 1 ramp but it has changed massively. Theres also another unit on the same land 60 seconds round the back where the engine building & development takes place nice stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
