I have got some help from a member who is really dedicated and am going to start with the site, we are sorting out hosting etc now, i dont mind trying to make this site with just us two i really don't but the more support the better, if it fails it fails. I know nz has a small amount of gt4s, under 50 st205's, and idk how many st185s and 165s..the point in the site is to kind of keep the intrest in them alive, otherwise these cars will just become less and less, older an older, run down ones will be scrapped ra ra maybe a site will keep them going, idk

am starting some mock ups tonight :D


hey if the website is good, like the swedish one it might cater to people from aussie/uk/us as well on the odd occasion. Don't limit yourself just to NZ usage even though it as an NZ site.

We could even consider setting up a dedicated GT4 discussion area with specific moderators on here, if you wanted. Concerned you might not reach critical mass. I know some of the other car-specific forums have struggled with enough enthusiastic folks to keep it ticking over...

hey all, um the number 50, well a dedicated friend of mine has recorded i think 42 gt4's in nz with a lot of reasearch, ones he's seen, and a few other means of finding out. even has pictures of the majority of them along with no. plate of 40 or so recorded.

anyhow site is underway with a few mock ups done and what not.. i'm just hopping the ones that are intrested and have a gt4 will join and hopefully a small thing like this will eventuate..

who owns PRYMAL!?!? it a red st205 will a front mount, red, has the wing, have seen it a few times flashed me today, waved back, is a really nice car. just made me think how people out there with these cars always seem friendly!? just motivated me to keep on going with the site :D !

I was a previous owner, it seemed quite pickled when we parted ways. Guy I sold it to was going to rebuild it for track use. Always wondered what became of it

I had a chap that came to my place once (a few years back), he claimed his ST205 GT4 was NZ new WRC. It was red colour. I can't remember what I sold him...
I wander if he is a TS member.
Not many Red ST205 WRC around....

Ive only ever come across two red WRC's. First one was back in the day, a dealer in Milford had one listed at 30k. Only other red WRC ive seen is the one parked in my garage.

Is that a JDM ?
