Caught this with my iphone on Bow trail.

Is there no way to post photos straight from the Iphone? If not, it is a POS.

this is one that was at a Subaru meet in Red Deer.

This car is sooo damn fast and cool looking. I sooo want one.

Nice pics, would be cool to see that rolling around, too bad winter is near.

Build one.
There's a shitload of free information out there.

I was thinking of building one and using a 13B-Turbo to power it, but decided that it just wasn't me.

Could likely do it really nice (with premade aluminum body panels) for less than $10,000 if you're handy with a buzz box.

I might still have some .dwg files for the frame and cage on my home computer. I can take a look if you're interested.

how fast is that beast?

A friend of mine has imported a fair number of those from Japan for a car club in BC I believe. I'm sure he can get people details on them if interested. www.360autosports.com

I know that they are somewhat like a less extreme Ariel Atom in that they handle incredibly well and are very fast accelerating. Top speed is limited by the relatively small amount of horsepower coming out of what I seem to remember is often a rover motor.

rover motor? the one that was at the subaru meet had a Hyabusa motor in it, so 1200 cc just like the motorcycle. So as far as limited hp, it's probably not needed since it is sooo lightweight. The thing is a rocket.

Here is another picture of the one I saw. Check out the Hyabusa sticker, and the exhaust.

sick!

The one that was at the Subaru meet is a much better car than the old ones that are imported from Japan. The guy has a website for the car, I tried to get a hold of him through it but I never got a response, I want to buy one, but the $75,000.00 sticker price is holding me back, haha. Hyabusa motor and sequential shifter would be so much fun. 0-60 is supposed to be low 3's, quarter mile is 11's.
