            Hey mate, Your car looks great! All that time and effort has really paid off!

            Never seen anything nice like that here in NSW :( Though IMO I'd loose the eyebrows and return to the stock mirrors.

            Aside from showing yourself to be offensive, lacking experience and ignorant in the ways of business, you're also illiterate and imprudent. Beyond that, your sense of liability is severely impaired.

                  Thanks heaps. Unfortunatly you will never see it at a show as I live on the other side of the world(Australia)...haha...well unless your planning to travel.....

                  Yeah it does haul ass, I', very happy with the motor. Its amazing, under 4000rpm it is very nice as a DD and as so as it goes above it just pulls like a train.

                  The exhaust is custom made, headers into a X-pipe then into
                  dual 2 1/4, then 2.5in cats, then to a dual in dual out cross muffler and out with a 2.5 dual tips, all the bends are mandrel bent.
                  Sounds pretty good, very little rasp, but only at very high revs. otherwise has a pretty deep sound.

                        Congratulations on getting the car pretty much finished. It looks fantastic! It probably goes fairly quickly as well.

                            Thanks for all the comments. Much appreciated.

                            Ok so the car had a meeting with the dyno today and here are the results.



                            Oh, yes the side trim will be going back on soon....

                            171.6RWKW is pretty good I think. Theres guys around here which are only getting 161RWKW on there 3.0 M3's.



                            And for the keen ones, you can see it all here, let me know what you think of the exhaust.

                                I'm new to the forum (I'm on bf.c most of the time), but had to comment here.

                                AWESOME project! Great color choice, nice interior materials, great wheels, and has all the go fast goodies to back up the great looks.

                                Are you running the stock S50 computer? Do you have plans for a standalone or at least a chip in the future?

                                According to Google calculator:

                                NICE! I'd be happy with that at the rear wheels of my E34.

                                Congrats on a great job and thanks for the pics. How about some rollin' vids now?
