Toyrotor,

Actually those pictures are linked to www.rx7-gallery.co.uk... I am sure those images get around though.

As for Cosmos, my mate actually flew up to NSW to buy his one earlier this year because they are a bit rare around Vic. The guy he bought it from had another one or two as well. I think he was a dealer and sold a few of them.

Apparently the engine is a later model one, I think '94 model, in an '89 car. It's the luxury one and is grey with a factory bodykit. Do you know this car?

I know of another one at the place I take my car to get the aircon fixed at (Carcool). The guy that works there was in Japan, fell in love with it and brought it home.



EDIT: Oh yeah, I forgot to add... Nice car you've got there... How much did it cost to comply? Apparently my mate's one cost thousands to do.

And, is that a Chaser next to your car in the first pic. I want one of them.



Just checked & "wow" your right. My pics sure do get around. I even found them on a Japanese Cosmo site only yesterday too.

As for the Cosmo your talking about, would that be the Grey 91 model that went to Phillip Sheen from Ballarat...??

I sold that one to him as a favour to a mate, the same mate that owned the few Cosmo's you mentioned & still owns the Cosmo + Soarer I mentioned.

The engine is a later version from 94 (Cosmo=90-95) as the seller went overboard on the original 20B & then hated the sluggish low end torque & peaky 420kW engine when on boost. Out it came & in went another original 20B to restore its original theme.

Tyottsoarer: Just checked your link to the beast. A few nice mods there. Seems a run between our cars may be an interesting event....... Very Happy

One advantage that you Soarer guys get is the fact that Toyota sent them to the USA so mods are available from there & in english. I have to struggle with obscure Japanese sites & reluctant Japanese that hate dealing internationally.

Here is a recent pic of my Cosmo in current form. (again from another site) Its a 95 model, had 24K km on it when I imported it & has 34K km on it today (yes, its a weekender). Am slowly upgrading it being careful not to ruin the "theme" of the car as thats the most important part.
