whats the legalities with lexan windows?? can you run them in Aus. My car will mainly be used for hillclimbs and club track days.


Depends on the class you are running in. Should only be an issue if you plan to run in a road registered or historic class.

On mine because it is a track only car, I've taken out the door windows and mechs, when upgrading the cage I got rid of most of the sound deadening material, running lexan side windows etc. but could still run lexan rear window.

I have this silly idea that getting the car (with the overbuilt cage that must weight 170lbs) down to some crazy number like 1475 without driver.............currently I'm at around 1650.
Nothing money won't cure......................make the whole chassis out of carbon fiber and use an alloy block and it might get down to 1300lbs..............anyone want a $250,000 Datsun 1200!!!!!

PS I still haven't got into the aero mods..................flush windshield, smooth drip rails.

looks like helmet on wheels, twitchy geriatric driver w/ a big wallet by the looks of it.

this one is less radical and much cheaper :)
oz built, about same weight as the above one
but little less hp but more torque midrange.
sold for bargain around 13k aud.

The Honda was recently crashed and is being repaired for the 2012 SE QLD sprint series. It's a neat little car.
