wacomuk

bit of inspiration

this sabre was restored, rebuilt and re-engineered about 2 miles from 3 Sisters and spent 2-3 years there. Im not sure if its still there, but the guy that did the rebuild, Pete, is dual driving it with current owner at various sprints/hills to develop it. Runs a forged ET but a 350Z gearbox (6spd iirc), emerald management and some trick bits. Pete Brown of Pete Brown Autos is the guy, nice bloke to boot and a real scim expert.
