I know that I want it.

Isn't it pretty much the same thing as the Sprint/Firefly/Impulse/whatever turbos?

Actually wikipedia says it is the same as an Isuzu I-mark turbo.

It's an Isuzu and therefore engineered by people so evil that hell rejected them.

BTW - Thanks Evan. First I get offered a rare homologation special today, and now this...

Not telling and we'll see.

I work for an enabler, let's put it that way. He met someone at the BMV who was registering his second one of these beasties. Oddly enough, several months ago, the guy's other car was at a shop that we're friendly with, they came over asking for information about it.

Let's just say, it's one of the few cars that I'd consider giving up the RX-7 for.

Hah... I already turned down one cheap 323GTX in the past 12 months... I hear it sold almost instantly, too Wouldn't touch one with a ten foot pole, glass parts that are unobtainium is a bad combo.
