Hehe yeah roadpacer are funny, i'm suprised that there is still one around, it'd be a collectors item now though and that one looks like it's in good nick. I belive they have a rear seat fridge etc since the interior and electrics are entirely japanese.
As for the first one there have been a few SR R32s in oz, apparently makes them handle a little better and go faster with no other mods, i guess there is a weight saving there?

I'm surprised this car hasn't been linked to yet in the Silvia section -http://www.j-spec.com.au/list/index.php?ID=4183

The SR seems to sit pretty neutral in the engine bay. Could help with the distribution too?

Actually thats a bit harsh, it's a Premier body with Mazda running gear interior and electrics. Sold new in Japan as the Roadpacer.
They were shit, but rare cos of it ;).

more commonly known as the Mazda Roadblock

the 202 and the rotary had similar kw, but obviously the 6cyl had heaps more torque - the rotary just doesnt have the nuts to pull a barge like that.
