Yippee!!! Just bought a REV3 TUBBY!!!

Post by gordy.r »

Heeeeelllllooooo,

Well ive moved on from my Mk1 n/a (anyone wanna buy a silver mk1 with 90k on the clock?), and just bought myself a 94 plate black Rev3 T-bar Tubby :D :D :D :D :D

It has just been imported from Jap land, and has done 50k and only 3 modifications to date -

New stainless steel exhaust system
17'' Alloys
Turbo timer

Now what i need is some info on them....... anything will do (best engine mods etc).

I pick it up in two weeks, it is in the process of getting converted to European bits and bobs and is getting a cat1 alarm and immoboliser fitted.

I only managed to get two photos while i was there and these do it no justice, it is pristine inside and out with not a single mark!

That looks exactly like the one I went to buy at Mackay's Imports in Edinburgh but it was sold before I got a test drive in it. :(

Yeah thats where i bought it from, when were you there? I think there was a guy who was meant to but it fell through.

I found some more pics of it that were taken in Japan.

Does anyone know what exhaust system that is???

Does anyone else think that's possibly the daftest name for an exhaust, ever? Always makes me laugh :D

Nice car though, gordy - I like the wheels :)

Thanx :D

The wheels i think were what really sealed the deal for me, not your normal bling bling jobbies, i think they set the car off quite nice.
