if anything, it'll provide a really cheap shell for engine/drivetrain swaps.

could be a really cheap starting point for a track build

and as someone posted previously, that concept if pr0n. if they could make something like that and be cheap. fuaaaark

Would be fantastic, however the potential costs associated with importing these models to AUS may surpass the actual value of the car.

They would be a great starting point for a track car, as theres no way they will meet AUS standards for roadworthy.

^^ Good point.

If they are not Aus Delivered i'd estimate that including import costs, registering it on our roads (provided they can even get them through compliance which is going to be very hard to imagine) and all other relevant fees associated with it the price will blow out easily to around 15k.

Then one asks the question.. Do you really want to buy a datto for that price, pour another 5-10k ontop for the engine conversion and modifications when there are so much better bases out there for the same price?

Looks too Porsche like from the rear.

SR conversion ASAP :)

I say keep it with a 6 cylinder from a heritage point of view.

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise    
    • My Fuga Hybrid is JDM, 2014 model but very similar to the V37 from the looks of things..same platform just physically larger and very comfortab;e
