Pics will be up soon after a clean up, which will hopefully be tonight. Interior is nice, minus a few stitching undone and a tear on the rear headrest.

@Mosman & ImPreSiV & Pimpreza: I need to get in touch with these guys. Jim might be the same guy with the white + black SVX I spotted on Newcastle St around a month back.
I wanna see that wide Vortex o__o

Interior pic's?????
Maybe in a future meetup. After mid July, it should have some work done to in.
The car is 1600kg and has only 230hp. Not the quickest power to weight ratio, and the weight puts strain on a lot of the parts like the wheel bearings and brake rotors. Not gonna cut any laps soon :P Might need to drop at least around 100kg (not easy) and be sure all running bits have the strength to handle a good push. I'm keeping it mainly as a cruiser and intend to keep luxury bits, so my weight loss ideas and your dreams for seeing this on track are thinning. :P

I'd like to know what brakes I can get onto this, seeing as the rotors tend to warp in these cars. Like mentioned before, I've got my eyes on Rota P45Rs.

Getting some hoses replaced is well on the list. An excuse to get into engine detailing too.

So much attention. My work efficiency is decreasing! :P
