It's picking holes I know and I'm not slagging the car off, but...
97 JDM H22a5 BB8 SiR Engine (212 hp stock)
:?
4ws disabled (safety precaution, can lock up in boost)
:?

I also love the way he couldn't decide what colour to use under the bonnet for dressing/silicone hoses... so he used them all!
Also, do you think he likes the fact it's an SiR much?
:D

Some people do it for the thrill of the build and when finished they are instantly bored of it.

Yeah Merlin's right there are plenty of people like that - I'm with spud though, I don't get why do all the effort but then not enjoy the result!
:think: especially when you've paid someone else to do all the work... How do you actually get the thrill of the build?

Between the wrong stock HP, lack of knowledge of how 4WS works, and the fact that the gauge pods are screwed to the dash with self tapping screws, I think I'd avoid. Completely. Forever.
