Seriously thinking of breaking the Cossie now and buying one.

Love the look, and the way they drive. Only put off by the rebuilds, but Id be buying one with a rebuilt engine and warranty.

Anything worth knowing? Tuning wise or anything else wise?

 

rebuilds easy, you can buy a spare engine for 600 and a DVD on how to build a spare

the ancillaries cost more...........................but there is always the jap yahoo auctions for that

the LOVE fuel

thats about it really

 

is this the "batman" shape

love em if so

This shape yes

 

that looks awesome.

When i bought my 3dr a colleague at work bought a black one like this with an aftermarket kit fitted and it looked the bollox.

Altho the cossie did have more people standing and staring at it than the rx7

 

Rebuilds are a dawdle (I had to do it twice )

Parts are dirt cheap if you buy them from Oz and not over here.

And they dont need rebuilding as much as people make out. Keep them in good nick, dont let them run lean or overheat, change oil every 3k miles and they'll do 100k easily.

Mine, the engine was knackered when I got it, and second time round, I killed it by letting it get hot when the header tank cracked. Have been seriously considering another one recently and I know reliability woldnt put me off.

And they are so so quick, and excellent handling.
