no doubt about that, FCs are far to expensive in Australia. The amount of money importers make from importing FCs is criminal.... Now I can't even get an import. Really sux big time...... EXTREMELY disappointed!!

Thats some super torque you got there. Monster of a car. What is the 1/4 mile and 0-100km/h time?

btw Matt RX7, how much did you pay for the upgrades? Breakdown cost would be useful.

LT8S,2XBosch fuel pumps, malpassi, f/mount, hi-flow, clutch, injector re-kit, dyno tune =$5,775 including labour.

never taken it to the track, but my mechanic says just a basic hi-flow (to4 front wheel) has done a 12.6 in a customers otherwise stock S4.

Just found out that we are no longer allowed to import cars from overseas anymore with the 15 year rule. Heard that from Geoff, Prestige motors.
you can still get some awsome 88 s4's. and i am doing the same stuff as Matt_RX7 and i cant wait to get it back from the shop. but i think the price he put does not include the microtech cause it doesnt add up

Matt RX-7, I probably will have to save up for the mods. Too much in dept, but 12.6s is bloody fast. Must be about 400+ hp 600+ Nm. Good on you Matt.

S5 RX7, I may just settle for a S4. Externally, they look pretty much the same right? Only the S5 has a silghtly beefed up engine.
