Running costs aren't too bad, coz you do bugger all k's.

Brakes are hard, new pads and maybe rotors (compound dependant) every other meet depending on the track and whether it's a full day.

Brake fluid, same. Good fluid every couple /few hundred track k's.

And tyres. $800 a set every 4 full day events or so.

Considering I'll only do one event per month, meh it's ok..

Bloody Girls Car!!!! You’re getting Soft young Fella. Driving a Fairmont during the week and a Rice burner on the weekends… :spoton:

BAhahha. The Fairmont is Comfy, and has colour ICC :D and a towbar.........................................

I'll bring the little beastie round on a Saturday to your workshop.

Then we'll see who's screaming like a girl old man :buttonit:

The Evo looks great. I worked with a bloke a few years back called Scott that had a grey Evo2 or Evo3 and with a zorst and tune it ran very very low 12's. Very quick cars.

Yeah Jme, Cheers. already booked it in for the WRX Vs EVO track challenge at Colli in June/July :D 6 months of looking has payed off.

I've had a '92 GSR before ( Dark grey one). Had the evo engine with a catless 3", koni coilovers all round and evo brakes. No stranger to the 4G63 that's for sure.. That car fueled the fire.

I have been trying to get a Jap racecar, but cannot seem to find any site that specialises in Race only.

Do you have your P3 CAMS to get it imported ?

Great car for some fun, I had the GSR version of that model and it was a awsome little car to thrash around.

Look at www.imports101.com.au - they occasionaly come up with cars that cannot be complied and licenced and are imported for race/rally use only. There are probably other companies that do it too, I just dont know who...

Get a lot of highly modified skylines, evo's, RX's etc...

Most of the race/rally only cars come with quite a few go fast bits too so if you have the money, then why not!

Or you could go the other way and look on Japanese auction sites themselves!!!

Just spied this Goran.

Scott Lambie? I Remember him from way back. He was mates with Hisham. I still chat to Hisham.. Scotts car ran 12.2's from memory with bugger all mods.

I was at a few events where he had his Evo 2..

Didn't he work at The West, or some Govt department (or both) back then??

Car still in Japan on the docks waiting for a ship. One ship a month - Maybe 15th May will see it here :)
