I'd love to do coffee, but I live in Sydney. I was in Sunshine the last couple of weekends doing some renovations on a house (don't you love interstate love jobs?) but I don't get down to Melbourne much.

As for the weight difference, again, something very much underestimated. Perhaps not as noticeable on the long straights (inertia and weight are good friends), but acceleration is hinged on weight, and so is braking and cornering. I think the only real disadvantage EG's have over EK's in regards to racing is chassis rigidity, the age of the car makes them a little less rigid, but that can be overcome without too much hassle.

I bought an EG4, all hooked up for an ITR brake conversion, and once I get my brakes, suspension, wheels and tyres done, I'll be saving for a B18C. That's my little monster. I've already done Spoon boss kit with Nardi wheel, OEM shift boot, Buddy Club short shifter (B series shifter on a D series box, goes great) and Spoon duracon shift knob. Got some big plans, just gonna take time.

Hoping to do larger rotors with Spoon calipers, braided lines and whatnot, all the good stuff after I'm done with the B18. Can't wait.
