Hey thanks for all the input Smile

Chris - I would defintley insist on a manual. Manual opens up so many more dimensions to the driving 'experience'. In regard to the weight, I often get people saying "that thing must handle like sheit" but in reality the dry weight is only 1240kg. A stock SR 180 is around 1200 so the extra 3.3% weight is a good trade off. I'm in Canberra however I bought the car (inc the build) from Brisbane.

Chuck - Thanks for the issue no. I'll get onto getting a backissue asap!

Gabe - Early corona engine mount eh? Nothing short a little weilding wouldn't whip up!

draven - I hear what you are saying about the auto. I learned to drive on auto's before my first car. After that I dislike them. Manual gives control the auto will never like double clutching, better launching technique and greater control when initating a dorifto Smile as im sure you know. I would use the car for trackwork from time to time also. I'd get a coilover system with adjustable dampening to suit drag/track.
