Well the car that started this thread has developed a bit over the last couple of years.

Now sports an RB20DE with ITB's, cams, headwork etc. Think there is a pic in here somewhere...

It's had a couple of arguements with a total of 8 fence posts (7 at one time) which of course leads to upgrades.

With suspension mods, and a bit of tuning the car has become surprisingly competative, scoring a few 1st in class (1600 - 2000cc) and a 1st 2wd in a 3.5km hillclimb. I'm stoaked to be running an unorthadox car and beating some of the pure bread 2wd rallycars.

Here's a pic and vids from the other weekend. 10km forestry sprint. Day started at -5°C, parts of the road were permanantly frozen all day, tricky...

lol, my RX7 gets parked on the 3rd basement level down from ground. when it's idling on the timer and I hop in the lift to go up to my apartment I can hear it running all the way up to the top floor and from the lift to my front door! neighbours must loooove it.

and it's a turbo so is pretty quiet by rotor standards...

      I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.

      Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust

      Stock O2 sensors are narrowband. They're useless once you're away from stoich. IE, useless for what you're trying to do. 10:1 will read the same as 14:1 from the stock O2 sensors. That is, they'll read rich. The same level of rich.

      I agree once misfires happen it's basically worthless, but the hope is you can see what's happening in the run up to that.

      You should totally get a Brumby, and then come pick up the Subaru Liberty GTB I have here. EJ25 Turbo, 6 speed manual from the sti (just no dccd), and the good rear diff. Drop all that into a Brumby and go have fun!
