Actually, Mike's old sapphire.

Most complete saff ever IMO.

Had the brakes, the suspension, the engine, the interior, and was the original record breaker.

External colour, I like Phils, all round styling, Rhys and ultimate performance Rod.

If I had to choose, I must go with Rhys'

I like the removed recess in the rear bumper on your car JRST. Nice looking car too

Hey how does the house behind you car in the second from bottom pic get that blue car out? Looks like someone has bricked the exit up on the left hand side with some new bricks?

LOL

the exit is on the corner. to be honest the car has not seen the road since i took those pics. since being sprayed never been in the rain or anything.

I would like to give credit to all cossie owners for having one and being different.

To those that posted pics your cars are

Rod's car for performance i'd say, and it's a tough choice for looks, a few spring to mind, B13 FRS, Smit, GAZ@racespec, Ben304R? and loads more, don't be offended just can't list them all..... so many nice ones there.
Here's mine, won't be as low when it goes back on the road but will be a lot faster though.

It depends what you class as "best".

Best at wasting all that power tih a boot full of stereo - Rhys wins!

The reason I say Mikes over say Rods, is because although Rods is quality and has the top speed, Mike's was a better all rounder........

Dan, apart from his original "sig" pic (with flaming exhaust),

Also holds all the accleration records except 0-60 for Saffs, more advance suspension & grip management , stronger gearbox, Diff etc.
Better condition. It shows just how subjective " Best" is. .
Mike is "King" im not going to argue with that, Legends are hard to de-throne.

Mine has the best transmission, Skyline gearbox (2wd / 4x4 selectable) with pfitzner 5 speed dog engagement straight cut gearset, i'm not breaking this one Boost drops about 1 psi between gear change at full throttle

No current pics but here is a few:









Seen Rod's at Ace Cafe, very well built, alot of attention to detail. Derek Burliegh's (SP?) was also very well put together
