Looks like everything has been done right with no expense spared. If my circumstances were different I'd look seriously into buying it. But since not, it would be only fair to advise the community :lol: Makes a nice change from Evo's, STis and the like.

Does anyone know the history or further details of it?

Haha oh ok, bit slow as usual!

Seriously though, why? Sure its 10K more than a RS200 but the mods more than make up for it

500hp at the engine is a bit optimistic, its probly more like low 400's.

its been off and on trademe of ages now,still looks like a mean car tho. altezzas are actually suprisingly heavy tho , between 1300-1400kg. i wouldnt mind it.

You'd find that most recent mid-sized four door sedans weigh about that much.

It's all the extra safety gear, sound proofing etc.

You got that right, the turbo is nearly identical to the one on my GT-T engine, and steve murch reckons it'll make around 400hp at the flywheel @ that boost level.
