I have just added stuff bit by bit. Im taking it to Eastern Creek in a few weeks and take it down the quarter. Not sure how I will go but bound to find out. 
I actually saw quite a few of them up for sale on eBay Motors UK. Do you know or know someone who knows if it is possible to import one to the U.S.?Robert said:

, nearlly came unstuck. Had 3 mates in the car as ya do. Never thought for 1 sec about there lives. Not one of my best moments but looking at my mate in the passenger seat next to holding on for grim life was pretty funny and we all joke about it now. I think he left his nails inbedded in the arm rest LOL
Yeah, I need to look out for that. I heard that once a car ages past the 25 year old point the pollution laws, crash safety and whatnot does not matter anymore.Robert said:

we have that here, it's called filing for collector car insurance. your car first off must qualify as a collector car. which the requirements are the car must be more than 20 years old, it must also be rust free or have very little rust, the engine must be original and still in good working order through and through, any modifications to the engine must be stated so that the insurance company can tack on their value to the car's value, and the interior must be immaculate. with all the requirements met you get a black license plate here that says the cars year then says "Texas Collector Car" and the license number as it would have been put in the car's day. i know a guy who has a 1964 ford thunderbird that qualified for collector car insurance. and according to it he's only allowed to drive the car 2-3 times a week. and the rest of the time he keeps it in his garage. insurance companies like to insure older cars, since they don't have to pay out as much in the event of an emergency. but when an older car that has been completely restored and is in beautiful shape gets insurance it's value is significantly more than an unrestored version of that same car. and the insurance company has to pay that in the event of an emergency.Robert said:
The easiest part is the maintenance as well as the spare parts, at least in my situation. I know of a guy who has a shop that'd dedicated to Alfa Romeo, Lancia and Fiat. So that shouldn't be too much of a problem, but then I'd have to worry about gas, I'm pretty sure. I imagine the Delta Integrale would take premium.Robert said:
mmm getin a hard on just thinkin about it. I luv the one in Getaway in Stockhome.
Yeah, having a convertible with a V10 in it is insane. And then you get the launch control and 7 speed sequential gearbox.Robert said:
what you should do is look at companies like edelbrock and other american parts makers. they manfacture parts for most american cars even your oldsmobile achieva. i'd assume it has a V-6 or V-8. a simple mod you can do that wont cost more than about $800 would be to get headers, new catbacks, and exhaust pipes. those mods right there would give you about 15-20 more horses under the hood easily. and if you really wanted to go all out exhaust wise port and polish your exhaust tips and valves then you'd get a big boost. and that's not that expensive either. you can also replace your air filter with a cone shaped air intake with a heat sheild so that it takes in only cold air. also look into a newer larger carburetor, super charger, or throttlebody kit dependent upon what your car has.OrochiEddie said:
