Smile Hi From Auckland

Hi all.

Trawling about on Google for info on my BJ Sport 20 4wd, I happened across this forum.

Some interesting stuff here.

Just thought I'd say Hi.

I'll take some pics for you soon.

Sadly, it's no weapon...the JDM version (that I have) came with two options: FWD with 98kw and either manual or tiptronic box, or 4WD with 125KW driving all four wheels through a ****e 4-speed auto box (or rarer still a 5-speed manual, which I have only ever seen once).
I have the auto four-speed, so it's not the raciest or torquiest beast out there. It's currently used as the wife's family hack, so generally has the carseats for the kids in the back and all the paraphernalia of child-carrying dumped in and through it...kind of makes me sad to see it constantly filled with crumbs and toys and stuff, but at the end of the day, it's just a clean away from being the car I bought 2 years ago.

Highlights are the awesome sound system (6 speaker CD/Cassette/Radio combo) and the great interior that they Sport 20 gets in Japan - complete with Leather Nardi wheel etc...

Funnnily enough - not that rare in NZ.

With the proliferation of Japanese Imports, we have a lot of the more "unusual" cars here. Lots of 4WD variants of pretty much everything, too.

Hey, I have the SP20 as a 4WD 5-speed Manual.

Was hard to find in manual!!
Not too keen on the 4WD part tho. Being that mines lowered the 4WD is useless!
