Have to be a good driver to get a 1'35! Like the small aesthetic features on your car though

i tend to think we're cheating in our awds. my PB is a 1'32"9 in a 330kw evo 8mr on semis and then a big gap 1'37 in my S14, 1'39 in a K20A civic. i am a much better driver now than i was when i ran those times, so hopefully i dont be too disappointed
1'35 in my current car is highly doubtful..but i'll find out soon enough.

thank you for the compliment on my looks :D

Lookin goood!
Those rims look great, but how heavy are they and did the car feel less sprightly with them on?
Gambit might have a set of semis FS for your track endeavors :-)

Those are some quick times, you obviously are a good driver, I reckon you could get close to 1'35, good luck!
Who are you going to race with? EXE? Tampered?

I do club days here and there. been to a lot of exe days as they seem to have the most hardcore players to muck around with. I'll be at World Time Attack in August, but not in my own car. 1'35 at winton is a little optimistic at this stage but the end result is that I wanna embarrass some evos...lol I know...very mature.

Car looks great, I'm a little biased though :P

Be sure to post up some pictures of the rear diffuser, was never sure of how good that would look on a silver facelift so very keen to see it!

Saw Owens car in the flesh today and I really like the wheels. Suits the car really well. Not a fan of his lug nuts though...

Are they the ones from that vendor on our forums who sells HID's? Because if it's the ones I'm thinking of I totally agree. They look ugly. Sorry Owen :(

You will never take my K2 spoiler uniqueness from me!
