His name is Chris, he originally sold the car to Dan, who he used to work with. Car is a weapon mate, he put a bit of cash into it while he had it, spinout that it is now in NZ
Yeah it got bought into NZ nearly two years ago now,have done bits & pieces to it since ive owned it, roll cage etc but still pretty much as it came from Aus.
Hi mate thanks for that,the track is at Taupo raceway which is right dead smack in the middle of the north island. Its about 400mtrs above sea level so is difficult to make good power.
the motor in my rx2 was out of brisbanerx720b ex sports sedan rx7. 13b race bridgeport, u name it n it was done 2 the motor. was runnong twin side draught webbers on custom manifold. 2 inch extractors into single 2 1/2 inch system with a pissy little muffler b4 the diff n a truck muffler after (fucking loud) rx4 4spd with 1 tonne clutch n hilux diff. stock interior (original rx2 wheel) a few automeater gauges..yellolw paint with ROH mags. lowered. i moved 2 nz so had 2 sell her :-(
Didnt miss the gear but the clutch slipped hard out as soon as I hooked 4th so had to get of the gas then back on it.Have since changed to a twin plate clutch and did a 10.82 @ 210kph. What was your series1 running engine, box etc?
says he who prob never been in a 11sec "STREET" car...what specs dose the motor have? dyson sure know how to build tough rotors...OH HOW I WISH I NEVER SOLD MY SER1 RX2
Hey hows it thanks for that.Its a 13b bridgeport with T04B turbonetics T60 turbo.Has been dowelled etc with PTS apex seals. Running it on 98 pump gas at the mo but want to get it re-tuned on C16 race gas so should be able to get another 80 odd hp out of it. On current tune has 365rwhp.

Great video clip1
Which race-way was this drag-racing at?
Love the RX2 four door styling compared to the RX3 and RX4 four doors.
The "Capella" body style still looks good today!
