Hahaha hahahahaha ah haha... Its funny because i saw this when i was buying my SP20 and it's literally 5 minutes away from where i live... Considered looking at it, gawked a little at the interior, thought nothing of it. Bought my car then a few weeks later i saw it parked down the road... Had a look through the windows... Way too much red for me!

However, i appreciate all the effort he's put into it!

you gonna buy it!? You can't register it anymore according to new laws I think.

back in the day - when I had time YES maybe if it was at the right price. EG buy it sell one part paid for everything profit but your hidden cost of transport it to a place to strip - cost of time etc. Unfortunatley it's my time it costs and for the money it costs me to do that I'm better off working at my current rate as I can just buy all new.

Plus I don't have a Sp20- if I had a yellow one auto or manual I would just because I know the owner puts my mind at more ease. then again I'd buy the SE20 just to return to stock even. Personally red on blue it's like **** if you loved the Newcaslte nights perfect. but if not why ?

Then again for those who remember - Mazda had great interior colours in the 80's GREEN - BLUE - MAROON - BROWN in both **** and poo colours.

So I've found my next car. Putting a deposit on it in the coming days should be in it in about 2weeks

Only pic I have ATM

Has intercooler, turbo timing, piggyback boost controller, brass botton clutch and 3" turbo back xforce exhaust. Can't wait to pick it up

On-Off, lol no 2 ways about that. It's hard but I'll get use to it. Haven't got it yet. Compared to the SP alot more harsh

Careful of the gearbox - buttons aren't kind to them. Better to replace a clutch than to replace a gearbox

very very shmick love these in that colour and like rupe said brass buttons kill gearboxs

Yeah I want to put in a normal clutch. Probably in a few months, I'll also need a flywheel I think.
