1980 mk2 Rs2000

I'm fairly new to this forum, bought a mk2 rs2000 off here a few weeks ago.

The car came with a worked 2 lt with a lumpy cam, extractors and came with twin 45's. It also came with the original motor that was in the car (now being rebuilt by a friend) Currently rebuilding the car to be my first road car. Due to the new P plate laws in vic and not be allowed to have 'any performance enhance modification', will be putting the original engine back in the car as stock.

Front Rs seats were re-trimmed, central locking and alarm and new carpets were all done by the previous owner about 2 years ago.

Car has usual rust spots, as previous owner had it sitting in a carport for 2 years.

Currently changing the diff from a 4.11 over to a 3.54.










Luke.

    Looks like a good start, good luck with the project. Good to see a young bloke (pardon the pun) that doesn't want a Silvia or a VN.

    Regards,
