    what costs legitimate rally cars 400k? do they gold plate everything or something?
    Labor, reasearch, labor and more research. Also, everything they use is brand new as opposed to junkyard parts.

    This story is amazing! Love it.

        awesome. I always suspected the 318is would make a good rally car. with an S14 it's even better!

        I like this quote
        So before the final time control, I climbed under the car and undid the motor mount arm with the awesome little factory tool kit in the trunk. So then I could fab up the new part at my convenience and then pull the car out of parc ferme just to swap arms.

            I mean he mighta payed 500 for the car, but he had to put at least 10k into the thing.

                  I'm just saying they make it seem like he took 500 bucks and ran with it.

                    Some stuff on the factory cars is prototype gear as well..
                    VERY expensive to make, just for a few rally cars.

                        compared to the guys with cars that cost a million dollars with full teams and factory backing, he may as well have.

                            Oh yeah. Parc ferme — they lock your car up and you can't work on it at night. But you can pull it out for a 45-minute service. So before the final time control, I climbed under the car and undid the motor mount arm with the awesome little factory tool kit in the trunk.


                            Thought that was funny. Inspiring story!!
