Just waiting  for the ECU as i have decided to redo electrics and fit Microtech
that should be done in the next week or so then on the dyno for tune.
Hopefully will be out at Mallala with in the next couple of months.
Will start with Sprint races and hill climbs , Then maybe tarmac rallies if i can get sponsors dollars

The dash is a alfa motorsport fibreglass unit. Definetly would not cut up an origonal

If you're lookign at doing tarmac rallies check the rules first. As you're running an RB you may or mot be able to run in tarmac rallies depending on the rules they use.

Hi
Not to bothered about rallies if it wont fit into a class, I will look more into
classes later on after having some fun in the car.

The colour looks abit yellow in these pics. It is the code 112 lime yellow that the 240z came out in.
We are restoring one at work at the moment and that is what convinced me to do mine that colour it looks supperb.

Regards
Paul

At track days and supersprints you will ahve a ball. It's only when yo step up into propoer state level racing or tarmac rallies you might find it difficult to find somewhere to run.

Got the ecu yesterday. its a Microtech LT16 ,Hopefully start wiring up next weekend.
A mate of mine is a wiz at this sort of stuff he reckons it will be fully wired up in half a day then
the other half on the dyno.
