Oh my! I think that could possibly be the one! Seem a little darker than i remember. Any other pics perhaps? Another interior shot or engine bay shot?

Thank you so so much for the help. Next step is to contact current owner and make an offer he cant refuse.

Ill be putting the big tachometer back -_-

I believe my dad was the one who brought it into south africa as a n/a v8 gt5. He then imported suspension, brakes and the twin turbo motor and zf transaxle. The motor was tuned by a muppet who blew the motor on the dyno. The motor was then rebuilt with new parts and as i said before was set at 1.5 bar boost. The dyno run ended at 4500 rpm reading 600 or 650 hp when the car lost traction. After many failed atempts to lock it down more they estimated the power at full boost to be around 750 to 800 hp. If it has been kept in the twin turbo configuration and tuned correctly there in aus it should still be pushing that power.

Again i cant thank you enough!
