I just got back from a trip through Qld, NSW, Vic and SA. Along the way I spotted a genuine (not confirmed) Phase 3 GT HO sitting in a driveway of a house with junk piled on it. It is in a small country town (my secret!).

That Caddy with matching trailer is the coolest thing I've ever seen...
I'll have to find the photo and upload it from my phone, but the driving school out here at Blackwater has an unusual car in their small fleet of learner driver vehicles. It's a black WRX all decked out in thier driving school livery...for learners...to learn in...a turbo that they are banned from driving anyway... Yeah, I can't figure it out either... |

A while ago I remember someone saying they took their camera everywhere they went, just in case. I'm very glad I adopted the same approach
Saw this last night and had a chat to the owner. Here's the short list: Upgraded supercharger Upgraded suspension to coil overs Replaced all links, bushes, etc with better ones Upgraded brakes and lines
