Default Sniper for AU

Posting this here as well in case anyone has info on them, i put a thread in bpt but no ones responded, so does anyone know if they are going to do an AU sniper or not, cause i read something, somewhere on the net that the american company who makes them have dropped all australia car research and therefore there will never be a sniper for au?

Supposed to do from EF to BF 6's & 8's, when/if it gets developed.

Anyone with NFI what this thread is about should have a read of this first then come back.

I couldn't find anything to that effect in the "Australian Tuners" section of the Sniper website. The most recent posts suggest they are working on transmission control for the 6-speed ZF box atm, which doesn't sound like dropping Oz car research.

Having said that however, BPT are no longer saying "2 weeks". I rang them today & was told "it will be a fair while yet".

Maybe we should start asking the Diablo people if they can do it quicker...
