Thanks guys,

Sorry Have only just seen these replies.

The Mazda is my baby and it has cost me a lot of money to get it to where it is, even in NZ, with all the imports we have (must have more than half the original GTR stock in the world I would say) they are hard to come by well looked after.

The GTiR is a cool car, just not quite as special or Iconic as the GTR's I don't think with their SR20DET's. The GTR's BPD engines were exclusive to the GTR's from any other mazda and are just something else, huge torque and massive power potential with the standard semi forged internals.

The gearbox is what lets them down, quite literally like butter when you start playing with boost, pitty on a car that will run 18psi on standard set up without a care in the world from the engine side of things.

Appreciate your comments guys! Will post up some pics of the Festa, though its a little to standard to be of any interest to you lads... for the moment anyway tongueout.
