Spoke to John Craig of John Craig Assessing, and he's not terribly impressed at his name being brought up, he said he remembered Flav of Zoom Tuning, but never heard back from after he was told he had to pay in advance for the report as he might not like the result. I've given John my mobile numbers...

Thanks Brendon, have sent off an email to Iron Chef Imports, I have also spoken to the owner of the red mitsubishi in the picture, it's still for sale and for all intent and purposes appears to be a similar model, will be in touch with him later to see just how much modification he's done to it :D

Re: CAN WE FINALLY CONFIRM WHAT MODEL SIGMA THIS IS?

My 1984 Galant A160 looks like an Australian GJ GSR sigma, and thats where the similarities end. It does however have a factory standard 4g63b SOHC 2litre turbo and 4 speed auto factory gearbox in it. The 82 Starion has a simular motor but the wiring loom is totally different.

I needed another car whilst my baby waited to learn of her fate, so I bought this as a daily driver, which I've been slowly upgrading. Will keep it with an A12 in it, but will be eventually bored out to 1380 and supercharged, after all the other bits I've acumilated have been put in - ie disk brake ...

Mines got a boost gauge, it's all digital though, lineal increments ( lower lhs bottom of dash) :thumpsup: http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u165/lowmion/sigma5.jpg and the boot spoiler is one piece with the boot and not as pronounced as the GSR shown http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u165/lowmion...

Re: repair bill quote

I would say that you should look at the valuations given to the Starions are they would be the closest match to you vehicle or maybe try and see what it'd cost to get an importer to get one in Aus for and use that as a basic valuation. A standard valuation from anywhere typical would prob try and s...

well LUV were willing to insure it for 12k inspection needed, but it needed central locking, 3 point alarm and immobiliser, RACV were convinced it came with a factory super charger and not a turbo, so refused to insure it and just cars would but therir premium was insane.

Atleast you're on the way to getting some rectification.

Still sucks about the loss though.
