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.

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
