Pretty sure it used to belong to a member, his username was 280T from memory. Followed (well tried to follow) him on a cruise we did from Auckland to Hamilton last year, impressive acceleration... Boosting in 3rd damn near bottomed out the rear suspension. |

280t ftw!!! No reason you couldn't do the same to a standard RS200 though. I'm not familiar with the specifics of the TOM's car as it comes from the factory, but this looks to be rebuilt to be more stronger and much more powerful. I love the TOM's grill:

Well 280T was a member on here (check the Hamilton Go-Karting runs pics). Was apparently sold to a shore boy who lost his licence withing literally 4 hours of owning it, either that or did something to it... And like Jeremyflower stated, this thing just squated when he hit the boost (althogh was overfueling at the time of the run...) Nice still though

Dont know about anyone else, but it wouldnt be worth nearly as much to me since it's been rebuilt, so isnt an original 280T. wouldnt be nearly as cool as an original untouched one.. |

Granted, however dyno's are never that accurate when quotd without reference. Consider though, that the BEAMS engine is higher compression than your average RB/SR, so actual pressure in the pistions is higher in a BEAMS than a factory turbo motor at a given boost pressure. Corey's car gave me a lesson in this - i certainly didn't feel like only 8psi. |

with that in mind it would be interesting to see what exactly the static compression ratio is, given that it has been rebuild with some JE pistons. I'd expect its probably dropped a few points. |

Add up the price off all the aftermarket parts on this car and combine that figure with what a stock RS200 is worth and I think you will find this car is a relative bargain! I must admit though, the 280T is no looker. |

I'd be pretty tempted myself if it was around the 25k mark. Love the wheels, not gone on the colour. Looks in pretty good condition though and mmmm.... turbo.
