I have made a mistake I feel.
Now I think you were talking about the white car and I was talking about the red one. Fancy us having two 96s on one run with 5 cars.
If it was the white car you were referring to it is owned by young Kyle and it was our car, previously.

I have been talking about the red one. The white one is a JDM GEN4 built in December 1996. The red one was actually built in October 1995 so a GEN3 but would have been first registered here is 1996. It makes no difference though. Although I know of a 1991 that is registered as a 1992 but they made significant changes between the 2 years. Not quite the case with this NZ model.

You will notice the side indicators are GEN4 JDM style but these were standard on all NZDM models from 1990. The front park lights have the white section in the middle. This was an NZ and Europe only item. No fog lights either which is typical of the NZ models. Haha there I go again rattling off useless information. :roll: :oops:

GEN3 engine, revision 4 chassis. I wouldn't advertise it as a GEN3 as most people put that down to REV3 making it less desirable.
