There wasn't any bog in that car when I owned it!

Doug (DTrally) knows a bit about it, I think he knows who actually imported it to Aus.

This was my 3rd RS lig/leggy, I bought it with a boost leak (rooted factory bov), hence the atmo BOV. It ran & drove very sweetly after that.

It is all Jap spec, it has the Jap ecu & has 4.11 diffs...making it a bit quicker than an Aus delivered RS out of the box.
It's a bit special because it has a sunroof AND ABS, usually they had either the sun roof or the ABS. You don't usually get both.

It's also a little odd ball because the "constant awd, quadcam turbo yadda yadda" decals are on the front doors & not the rears as is usual.

It has pulled to over 230 kph (easily).

I fitted the Profec B & boost gauge, it was running a safe 13-14psi when I sold it.

I did a few things to it, from memory:

New timing belt, tensioner & idlers (tensioner mounting bracket failed)
New water pump
New cam & front crank seals
New clutch slave & hydraulic line
New intercooler water pump in the passenger front guard
RDA slotted front discs with EBC green stuff pads.
New tyres (Yokies I think??)
Radiator & intercooler both filled with Nissan long life coolant & a dose of Redline waterwetter.
Redline shockproof in the g/box
I always ran mobil 1 in the engine.

^^ all done within the last 4 years.

The pink Subaru badges were already on it when I bought it.

I may or may not have caused those scratches in the LH rear of the bumper....

Can I ask how much she cost you?

P.s I still have the steering wheel center cover here off that Momo wheel if you want it.
