Just update the P-WRX forum and thought I should let you guys know as well...

Latest update. The demo is coming together nicely, a bit slow but as it's our first one and also the time zone difference makes it a bit difficult to call the UK and get some of the important stuff sorted on the spot. Once this demo is done, anyone else wishing to build one will have us and the demo car to ask and see. The demo is looking great and 99% of the mechanical are in place. We currently have some of the mechanical parts away at their various shops having the slight modifications done. We have pretty much got all bits and bobs sorted for the interior and exterior and we hope by the end of April to have the demo out on the road for its first test run.

Here are some of the latest pics

Yes , thats right. I have a S13 as well , been keeping that to my self for some time now. 350kw out of a stock motor is quite good + the gear boxes are $400.00 when they go bang.

I am a little lost were $35000.00 is in this can you brake down what you get for your $ in what you are offering.

Not yet Matt but I'll try and take some in the next couple of days and post them up. Must of the stuff we've done lately is not noticeable from the outside i.e. handbrake and driveshafts but it's starting to take shape nicely.
