Can't see why not. There has been speculation that the dpi in association with cams was to have specific 'B reg' classification # plates, however thats yet to come into fruition.

I know historic reg ($50 a year club rego with same restrictions) u need to rivet a metal label above each number plate. |

Nothing needs to be on plate.
Steve Jones runs [FABCAR] on his b-reg R35 GTR.

Some very interesting discussion here but I cant help but think the more options that are shown to spotydog the more procrastinating he will have to do!!
The original aim of the exercise is to run a reasonably cheap car and to hopefully improve his driving skills. With that in mind I would suggest buying the best road car available for the budget, service it, put some decent tyres on it and make sure the brakes are up to scratch then.....seat time, seat time, seat time!! Once you have got to the point that you can not improve your lap times through driver improvement THEN its time to look at sinking some money in to the car.....we are all competative and get tempted by "bigger, faster, better, shinier" but the reality is that it takes a lot of experience (and money) to be at the front of the field and no amount of twelfty pot brakes and bajillion horse pressures can help if your no good behind the wheel. I started looking at it myself but then realised...crap...I have precious little experience of driving quickly so start with a stock car, get the seat time and build the skills to be able to push a car to its limits instead of being confused by the dizzying array of adjustments that can be made and only being able to push to 70% of its ability which is what would happen if I bought a proper race car. All in my opinion of course |

The other thing that no one has mentioned is that you need somewhere to store the thing, somewhere to work on it and preferably something to tow it with. It sounds great to drive a car down to busselton for the speed event series but the novelty wears off really quickly. It also means you can prep the car at home and then not have to worry about changing tyres etc when you get there. The Mrs is not going to be too happy is you start doing oil changes / change tyres on the driveway in nedlands! Brendon

IMHO go and buy the last Evo 9 rs from heaphy at ralliart for $40k. Exhaust, tune tyres. Brand new car (read super reliable) that you know the history of that will run low 13's down the 1/4 mile all day. Already in Australia so no import dramas. Heaphy / Ralliart will give you great parts backup (at a price) compared to subaru motorsport and you know the car is super super competitive.
Then you have someone that will provide the car licensed etc rather than all the bullshit and lies that I had to sort through. When you go to sell it you will still get really good money for it. Some rally guy will buy it and smash it up on the dirt. My 2c

if you could get an s202 for about <20 landed it wouldn't be a bad thing and much like the 08sti you wouldn't have to do much to improve to maximise the experience. if then, he decides to take the next step he has the perfect base car to do it without having to destroy the 08sti. Quote:
