Hi,

Yeah, I wouldn't touch it (rotar TA22 GT) with an Eadie-Elvis pole!!!

You can always try and get a TA27 GT. It's the same as the RA25 shape (early liftback with 5 tailights per side on the rear and the fluted bonnet) but with the 2TG engine (RA25 had the 18R series engine). I've been told by a few people that you may be able to get a good example in Oz (after purchase, import tax, compliance, etc) for around $12k-$15k. It'd certainly be different, 'cos I don't know of any TA27s in the country. They come up for sale in Japan every so often, but like it was mentioned in this topic, they're pretty old cars now and most owners (due to the cost of keeping old cars in Japan) would either be keeping these rare treasures, and I doubt they sell them for anything less than a premium amount.

As far as converting an LT into a GT - check the forums 'cos this topic has come up recently and, due to the cost and rarity of GT parts, I think you'd be forking out a fortune (let alone trying to find GT parts) and even then not have a true "GT" if that's what you're really after.

In any event, best of luck getting an old JDM GT Smile
