this one is not far from home. The front yard of this place has 5-6 late model geminis in it. Been meaning to take a picture of the yard some time. http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/cranbourne-east/other-parts-accessories/1991-isuzu-gemini-hatchback-turbo/1049438605

OZ yeah, i only ever saw the sedan which Barry H in NSW had. Maybe others too. Big risk though buying one...... engine condition, mechanics etc. glenn

Yeah, Irmscher version. Would be great WRX competition. I didn't see a price though. The fellow that sold me the GT bought one (Sedan). Last time I visited he had the whole motor, box, drivetrain on the floor. He said it needed a head gasket, and that was the only way to get the head off. His face wasn't like this More of this . He said some words I don't say.... I encouraged him to think of how great it would go once back together. He said some more words. Be sure it doesn't need a head gasket. Cheers, Matt.

Cheers, Matt. might make a nice donor though to rip all the stuff out and transplant into a Bellett like has been done before. A LOT of work though. Imagine..... a 4 wheel drive turbo DOHC Bellett. Its a pity they are not 2L engine though. I don't think they would be a real threat to a WRX although should be a bit lighter i think..

Those wagonoids are cool! Something a bit different and turbo/AWD before it was cool!
