Don't know who own's it's it now but there weren't too many white ones delivered to Perth with PCCB's.
PM if you need details on costs, but lets just say it would need a full front clip

It used to be Kim Ledgers car but was sold. Then it was stolen and crashed in some back alley in Mt Lawley during a Police car chase. Then it went to Mirage for assessment but in the end it was a write off.

I believe the chassis is a lot out of shape.

Front tub damage means it needs a full front clip, also damage to the PCCB discs..... even track cars need to driver straight

Auction finished and car was sold at $65K.

That seems like alot of coin for a GT4 with that much damage and can't be registered.

Would be better off buying a GT4 Clubsport or GT3 Cup Car if you wanted a track only car.

yeah seems like a lot if there is that much damage, would be pretty cool to put one of these front ends on it http://www.bathurst12hour.com.au/new...t-performance/

but yeah, the cost of it all doesn't make sense

here are 2 dyno runs I did last Saturday...Standard versus IPD Plenum, Fabspeed 200 Cell Headers, BMC Filters & Evolve Technik Tune...

Results are in line with what other in this post have found with Peters tune also..

Our cars run lean and also massively under timed to limit power...Car is alive now. Could only imagine how good it would be with a PDK and shorter gearing...

Impressive power increase, do you have any torque figure?

Great result. There'll be no catching you now!
That's 40 bhp ATW which must make the car something like 430 bhp at the crank and right in there with 997 GT3's
