I'll have to get some pics but off the top of my head, a chap up the road has a Bentley GT, an R8 and his wife has a RangeRover sport. A guy at the back of me imports cars, mainly subarus. He has 3 WRX type R's in his drive along with his subaru that he rallies, a guy 3 doors down has an imported r33 skyline, a few imported starlets round here too, imported by the same guy. Loads of porsches and ferraris, there's tons of nice cars come to think of it

According to the date in the picture, my brother detailed it in november 2008, so about 3 months ago.

Edit: Actually, i'm getting confused, i got a new computer then, so that will be the date i transfered the files

Theres a nice M5 over the road that is pretty loud on 20"s, and a corsa VXR at the top of the road, nothing special about that though.

My mate Jackies Golf R32 (im sure a few on here know this too)















Attention to detail on the dipstick


Cold air intake




LCR splitter



I have a carbonio CAI, Milltek cat back exhaust, Remap’d, Private plate, vented front grilles, oem rear grilles, forge short shifter.I also fitted my aero rear wiper, have a set of black badges and tints. The car has also been in for some smoothing, I have debadged the tailgate and delocked the tailgate handle. For a while I had a Rline bonnet bra but sold that and got a JOM debadged grille. The car has been treated to a set of BBS CH Black Edition’s in 19”x8.5” all round. These are coupled with a set of 15mm hubcentric FK spacers on rear and lowered on H&R springs(-25mm) but now looking into coilovers. I have fully drilled and grooved disks from America(ghostsquadgarage) and I am running EBC reds with them. A few other things such as R-line strut caps and dipstick cover, Billet bits certainly aint cheap!!!

And the turbo work.....





















He is expecting 400 brake and 400lb.ft torque. This is just stage one though.

The stuff involved in this kit is:-

-Garrett GT Hybrid Turbo
-Custom Manifold
-Custom Intake Pipe (SFS Hoses)
-Custom Boost Pipe work (SFS Hoses)
-Custom Downpipe
-Custom Oil/Coolant Lines
-Genesis 750cc Injectors
-HKS EVC6 Boost Controller
-Custom DeCat set up (with no fault codes!)
