Thats some facts about it. I'm sure there is few more smaller or bigger things I've changed but I don't remember. When I bought it about 3yrs ago it looked like totaly stock car with only 70 kmiles on clock. Since then pricelist is still getting bigger and plans for modyfications never ending. But it's still my daily driven car, only once it was on the track (Euro meet Nurburgring '2013) and will stay with me to the end (mine or her).

She was dynoed at summer national meet and it made 205BHP and 156 lbf.ft when H22A2 should be 183BHP.

That is a beautiful looking lude Mario. Lots of work gone into it, and a great result. :P

Keep up the good work. And get that manifold uprated! :lol:

Still shocked at that 205bhp from the Dyno shoot. I wonder what gains a decent manifold will give you? Tied up with the 2.5" exhaust, should be quite promising. ;)

And that silver BB4 I bought & stripped not so long ago had a registration number like yours..

Don't get much closer than that! :P

Thanks guys.

No money for mani ATM. I must fix result of close meet with that bloody white M3.

I've seen this bumper. We were laughing with my gf how close that numbers are. I can promise my one will not finish like that.

Looks very good mate !
I adore your goodies ! :jdm:

Your heated seats and mirrors, is that a custom aftermarket job or did you mix some CDM and JDM mirrors/seats ?

Keep up the good work man.
