very thorough thread

so does the saff. feel fast? my rst does, even if its not actually that fast

just looking forward to something a little more grown up, less wind noise, quiter comfier etc??

so the fuel cap is the only external difference between 2 and 4wd's??

Yup thats an early 4x4 dash. Its out of my early J Reg 4x4.

Feel fast? 2wds and 4wds feel totally different. Launches even in a standard 4x4 are fooking superb! But once they are going they're a bit sluggish compared to the 2wds and RS turbos. But a stage 3 conversion makes a hell of a difference.

2wds will always be quicker than 4wds of same power once they're moving. But a 4wd will handle better.

In a saph you need to be doing 150+ to get the feeling you do in a rs turbo at 130.

Its hard to compare cause the 2 cars are really very different. Some people have bought cossies and not looked back (like me) others have tried all the variations of cossie and gone back to rs turbos! (like gadget!)

You need to drive one! And do drive it! passenger rides dont give you anywhere near the idea of what its like in the drivers seat!
