Re: Full comp Insurance - Agreed Value

both my cars are with shannons at agreed values, they were really good with this, if its engineered or mod plated by transported, you have no worries at all. i had to mod plate my scorp.

Re: lets see how long this gearbox lasts

not a bad car over all, it obviously still goes, if driven right it shouldn't be to bad at all but if anyone did buy it a jap box swap is always an answer.

Re: fibreglass panels

a GH scorp front is basically the same as a GJ scorp front, both have the twin square head lights, only real difference would be grill.
what exactly would you like to change between a GH scorp front and a GJ scorp front??

Re: need some urgent advice on going EFI and some other mods.

i think efi would have more power but twin side draught webers would sound so cool and tuned right with a bit of engine work wouldnt be to far off efi non turbo.
