Spotted 6:40am this morning on west tce heading home from work a black 33 S2 having a look, i gave a wave then he booted it for about 50 mtrs, dont know why...cant just wave back in acknowledgement?

Bah...does anyone know what they compared and what came out tops overall ?

Surprisingly the STi came out on top. The R34GTR obviously had seriously more power and was faster in a straight line. And the Evo7 is a go-kart on steroids. But when Martin weighed up the prices vs performance vs grey import issues the STi came out the winner. Obviously the GTR is the best car, but at the time it was worth $102k (what John sold it for) so didn't represent the best 'value' overall. I think John sold the Evo7 for something like $65k too which counted against it compared with the cheaper locally available STi.

I will scan in the article for you tomorrow when I get time and you can have a read. Surely they wouldn't get a copyright knickers in a not over a 4 year old article, so I will risk it.

LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
