Set up was,
3.9 diff gears,
Custom "Hammond" Springs and struts with a lot more caster for that awesome "it steers its self" feeling ;)
Stock engine
T5
Koni yellow shocks all around
Spool

and thats how i did it for most of last year going my hardest all track day with near enough to no problems what so ever! Loved it!

BUT THEN....

Image
BOOM. (things still needed to be changed in this picture, hoses, heat shield ect)

Borgwarner K27 (Actross truck trim)
6boost mani
custom 4puc clutch
fuel system
440cc injectors
50mm gate
Lots of other expensive things that don't warrant a mention (fittings ect)

not bad looking rig mate, all fun and games til you break something, and then you get to build it better than before. Looks like you have a bit of fun with it too. Might catch you down there next time, I will probably be working

if you float down Melrose drive at all, you are likely to see the missus' ED Mont wagon out the front of mine, or mine up the drive. Don't leave it out on the street seeing as every other car I have had has been egged out the front. I will be looking out for your car now

So sick!

I need a racecar :(

Look at your car. Now back to mine. Now back to yours. Now back to mine. Sadly, yours isn't mine. But if you stopped buying dodgy cars and bought an ED, yours could be like mine. Look down. Back up. Where are you? ...You're on BoostedFalcon, reading the signature your signature could be like! Anything is possible when your car looks like my car... I'm on a computer.
