    Talking SBS TV Racing SIR-EG Sedan???

    On SBS this morning I saw some "Improved Under 2 litre Class" racing at Oran Park with Escorts, a 86 Corolla with an IS200 motor, some Mirages, Pulsars... but also a fast EF shape civic and an EG sedan with an SIR sticker on the back...

    It's apparently owned by David? Parsons or something, but he couldn't qualify the car on the Saturday so GARTH TANDER (!?!) stepped in to drive it on the Sunday and came from the back of the grid to finish in second!!!

    Anybody know what's under the bonnet??? Or who Parsons is? What about the EF??? It was thrid in qualifying and finished top 6!

    Fantastic racing...

    The "Improved Over 2 Litre Class" was also great to watch with GTR's and a heap of rotaries, bombadores etc.

    Beats the V8 circus any day!

    Having owned a (converted) SIR EG I'm aware of what they usually have under the bonnet, but considering engine swaps are permitted in this "improved" class, it may run something else like a hybrid or a B18C... Love to know!

    Anyone>>>???

    Just did a Google search and found out the guy's name is Phillip Parsons. The race results for the past few years seems to suggest the EG has a 1934cc engine, which sounds like a bored out DC2 motor!?! He may have changed cars since these results I dug up though as he seems to have run a few different Hondas over the years!

    Here is a link to the Tander story :

    ...and a link to the rules for the "Improved Under 2000cc Class" :

    I'd still love to see some under-bonnet pics or find out more about the cars!!!

    Not a Honda anymore.
    I'm pretty sure it's a B20B or some sort of 2L B-series. Possibly with a B16 head.
