There has been a few prefacelift ones on carsales over the years so they are over here in small numbers

Anyone got some photos or info I can actually read as part of THIS website not THAT website?

 

[unclepaulie]

nothing on that website either paul, just some dudes talking about it, where it was and discussing 6g conversions

 

[Dice]

This is the one I found. Not an ST-R but not a VR-4 either

 

[king_panther]

Yea there's been a couple of other Legnum versions pop up on CarSales from Kiwis bringing them over...

How does the fuel economy of the ST-R compare to a VR4?

But I still don't understand what the attraction is when we can get VR-4s instead.

It's the whole 'being different' thing. The country is full of VR4's. When you have something that's technically more pov pack, but rarer, it does it for some people, like me

If everyone was driving around in ST-Rs everyone would be wanting to find a VR4. We're lucky we have it the other way around.

See, sometime SEVS does work in our favour

 

[mfbamba]

Since I have a VR4 I don't mind more ST-R or whatever cheaper models there are.

If more people want VR4's our cars would be worth more.

We will all sell our cars one day or run them into the ground.

well i went down to sus it out today (even though it was raining). Giving it a quick once over, it's the exact same externally as a vr4, being a pearl white PFL. It's stock as they come. Factory headunit too. the interior all black leather like a COTY but it has a normal (no hivis dash) and is auto. According to the seller, it's his daughters car, her hubby bought it over and it's been in aust for like 6 years. he didnt say if it was a personal import. but did say it was 'all complianced'


pikachurs:

the rear badge, it's legit...i think

details on the windows

front

and again. no tow hook cover too lol

dash:

console:

the noisey thing in the front

plates of info et cetera

this plate on my car is on the rad support...iThink, it was on the firewall next to the vin plate

clean interior

has mint factory mats too (still uglier then a smashed crab though)

clean boot with all bits

even had this cargo net stashed away. no tool kit...maybe that was underneath this tray thing

and a quick upskirting photo lol
