99% sure it doesn't have a sunroof though. best news, they are 2km away from my work, so I'll pop in tomorrow and have a perv if it is there, the auction photo's are clearly from japan but dunno if it has landed yet.

Something interesting, it doesn't have VR-4 badges on it, and it almost looks like it has 2.4 viento gdi badging on the back, but perhaps it is just a light reflection?

 

[bradc]

ohh and most importantly, you guys can't have it hahahahaha!

 

[Nick]

no one would want it with 100,000kms on the clock anyway!

You can keep your high km clapped out Legnums Brad! lol

 

[SiliconAngel]

But are YOU going to buy it, Brad? No, that's what I thought. So, mmm, STFU? *smiles sweetly*

In all seriousness though, you need a new set of Recaros, don't you??

 

[Guest]

expensive recaros...

 

[Gooch]

black leggie

AH! Got one and with a sun roof

Now if only I can get it on the road

 

[bradc]

it would have the nice suede recaro's, but I've got my evo 6.5 recaro's with black suede and red patterning which look even cooler As for the higher km's, I don't care, there are a few in the uk that have got over 250,000km on them

Oh yea I know - I thought you needed a new set, though? You know, to sit in your lounge room or something?

 

[bradc]

nahh, already got a spare drivers seat which I intend to make a base for so I can sit on my Legnum seat and control my Logitech G25 and have fun in GTR2

If i remember correct the 2.4's are 4 cylinder aren't they, i heard they had good economy and also reasonable power??

 

[bradc]

hmmm, I don't like them.They need 98 or higher octane, compared to the n/a 6a13 which will run happily on 91 octane. The 6a13 is rated at 129kw @ 5500rpm and 230nm @4500rpm while the 4g64 is 121kw @5250rpm and 230nm @ 3500rpm. So as you can see the 4g64 pulls a little harder at lower rpm and runs out of puff earlier.As for fuel economy, I normally get 30-35mpg in my 6a13 4wd manual using 91, one of the guys in england has a 4g64 2wd auto, uses 98 octane and gets 35-38mpg, so not much better than me.Personally I wouldn't get one because they are a big 4 cylinder that is rough, especially at high rpm, and the gdi fuel pump is worth $3000 and they do fail regularly.
