    How come you are calling the Australian and New Zealand version of the car the RUSH the BRAT's name in Aus was the Brumby (even tho i think BRAT is a better name personally) is it because the American version is already called the Bruckell Champ?

    I'm not trying to copy everything the BRAT did so I wanted to follow more what Nissan or Mazda did how Japan got the Silvia or Luce whereas US/AU/NZ got the 200SX or 929
    --- Post updated ---
    I'll think of some way to tribute them, maybe a bumper sticker with their logo on the dirty version

    Can't wait for the early access! How tall can it get? Curious about it's offroad capabilities.

    It would be a crime not to give it lifted suspension like this BRAT, I've only made stock suspension so far though.

    will the t-tops have removable blinds and somewhere they can be stored? perhaps a little much to ask, just have very fond memories of t-tops

    Didn't think about blinds but i'll add them to the to-do, and they'd likely get stored behind the seats because there's a little storage box back there currently

    neato! my old X-90 had straps that were supposed to hold the t-tops in little leather pouches on top of the spare wheel for some reason, but most of the time i just slid them down behind the seats too :)
