Just publicly answering a few questions I got asked about it..
I purchased the car in March last year while it was still in Japan (so yes I am the first owner in Oz)
Body stuff: The front right quarterpanel has a bit of light rippling. Front left quarterpanel has a scrape about 1" square on the wheel arch which took the paint off (wasn't me) so has a bit of surface rust there, otherwise it's all rust free afaik. Paint is a little faded either side of the bonnet scoop. Just mentioning all this to be thorough - for a 15 year old car the exterior is all pretty good.
All of the engine mods except for the boost controller have been done in the last 12 months by Global Motorworks and Performanz Turbochargers in Welshpool. The factory computer which was still in when I got it have a boost cut at 10 psi, so we can be confident it never ran above this while in Japan.
It was on the dyno yesterday after the turbo rebuild/upgrade (to a Group A compressor), got 215hp at the wheels @ 1.1 bar.
