4WD RX7 info reqd

bill-robinson, Dec 18, 1:39am
I am trying to find the history on an RX7 with a cosworth GAA engine and an imported 4WD setup using R180 diffs. The cart was built in Rotorua for Graham Barker and used by him in 85-87 I believe. Car was last heard of at Niel Allport's on Olive road. I am interested in the 4WD system but would like to trace the car as well.TIABill

Is that the car used at Ashley Forest by Graham (YouTube 1988 Ashley Forest rally sprint). Not sure if it was the same car as at Neil's (may have been the Millen left hook car). Try on this site as they have feelers everywhere

I just had another look at the ashley forest video on you tube and noticed that the car was only 2WD. I had been told it was 4WD as in my original post.

The Barker 4wd rx7 looks like it has broken the front diff getting off the line.

This Finnish rx7 4wd also spins the rear wheels a bit.
