Hi,

In the process of aquiring a 98 Gen2 so, just popped in to say hi & will update info & pics once it is here with mwa

Great sight & lookin forward to chats & learning some stuff along the way. It's had some mods so, prolly won't do too much for a while. Need to get moving on repairing & selling my daily @ moment :assassin:

Thanks for the welcome. Ones not bad haha.

After much deliberation, I have chosen this lil' beasty over below 2 others. Has had a few very tasteful mods. I have to see after driving whether the turbo is too laggy? (twins have been swapped out for a big single) It does have a piggy back ECU though so, who knows? What impressed me the most was the B4 forged internals. This means I have a similar base as the REX STi I was considering earlier, in which to launch from.

Will be picking it up in the morning 8)

Nice pick up! I like that it's a big single; from what I've read the stock TT setup can be a real pain in the ass!

Seen this thing in the car sales ad for a while.

Got yourself a potentially great base to work from there.!!

Get those pics of the motor up when you have it!!

Good luck
