Expert opinion? Once you start ticking the options on those RCR kits, they get pretty f**king expensive. Add on drivetrain, shipping, local engineering..

Cost / expense and worth are 2 different things

he paid 190 for it. it is worth it once you drive it;)

the other one in adelaide cost a bit less than that as he built most of it himself (120K so far) compaired to this one that was fully built in the QLD factory.

woah def not worth that much for a kit car.

if you saw it in the flesh (or lucky enough to drive it, which i have at speed) it is worth it. the 7L engine was 35K alone from the US gearbox another 20K . the engineering is a work of art. it weighs just on 1000kg and has 'around' 500KW at the wheels:)

to those who may or may not know (and to those that don't care) i became a daddy for the first time on the 23/4 at 0052. we named our first child Jameson Seeley

Congratulations man. Now to start saving for a gokart lol

Went out to watch the drift practice with Krishy tonight.... There was some big crashes and a rollover right in front of us... Thankfully no body hurt (well badly) from what I could tell... not a bad evening :)

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
