Also, thinking about sticking a low blow turbo on it. Something to make around 350 fly-horses.
Anyone with any great ideas re std equipment turbos that might fit the bill? Evo or similar? Cause cheep-cheep.

So, boredom setting in waiting for the slow wheels of bureaucracy to move led me to construct this fake splitter from a piece of ply and a strip of stainless I had lying around ha.




All ready for quick self removal at the first glance of a curb...

Still dont know what to do about that fucking plate.

This thread is amazing. The flares remind me of an Escort's. Top notch work here.

put 8 subwoofers in the trunk, should help with oversteer and ABS

So what's it like to drive compared to a typical modified e30 or an e46? Does it drive more like an e30 with better characteristics or an e46?

So glad to see you've (nearly) finished it!

Umm, a bit like a super light weight E46. Has a really sharp turn in but because it's a bit light in the rear, it's quite oversteery.
Makes it a lot of fun. Feels quite a lot more at home on the track than the road.
But the ABS plays some funny games with light arse end.

What's under the hood of your friend's car? :-)
