A white S15 convertible (Sexy, SEXY. I didn't even know they existed, yes I did check to see if it was an S13 with a front/rear end conversion, no it was a proper S15.)

Yeah i knew of them, but i didn't think they were eligable for compliance?? oh well good to see it made it, must have come in under the rule about owning it in japan for a year or whatever (how do 2 door WRX's get here?)

sweet mother of god if that was my girl i will be so proud :geek: normally everyone see's her but she doesnt seem to ever see them. I am sure when she gets home tonight she will tell me if she did see anyone :blush:

think 2 door rexes were allowed for a brief period - something like 400 only?

spotted a black r33 near curtin, driven by a girl - gave/got a wave

I know the rexes you're talking about, the ones with the big WRX sticker on the bootlid from japan only 400 were imported, and all were 4 doors

got it in a hot 4s mag somewhere

bahaha i just rang her then and asked her she is like ummm not that i know of and then she was like yea i did but i thought they were wanting to move into a different lane or something she said it was near a roundabout or a set of lights ???

anyways sounds like she might have waved even if it was unintentional :(

Almost correct-22B,only five came to Aus'. Subaru kept one,the other four went unregistered to private buyers at $110,000 each...

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
