How do these things compare to the exocets you're also involved with?

Looks similar, with a similar amount of work involved. Slightly more expensive, but slightly more included for the end result...

Looks cool - I'd be a bit dubious about owning a car called a Rhubarb though...

Best way I could explain the differences would be a Exocet being a
Skyline GTS and the Rhubarb being a Skyline GT-R
Both are great packages and lots of fun
But the Rhubarb has a Tigwelded Rollcage Material Chassis - designed and built by former F1/F2 Technicians and comes with custom Front control arms (all complied) - Custom QA1 Shocks/Springs, Fabricated Fuel tank, Harness points, additional bracing - and many other features I've probably forgotten
So more performance orientated than the Exocet

In my opinion worth the initial slightly higher purchase price.
But obviously depends on the budget and what it's going to be primarily used for.
