So I had another thread that was to my old car, so I better make a seperate for this one, it's easier to keep track of everything then!
I used to own this beast;
However have since upgraded to another car, guess I had better have the story telling part;
So about a week and a half ago, it was wednesday, my mate and I started the hour and a bit trip to the coast and we left early to avoid traffic, but this knob end thought they would crash and end up facing the wrong way in the middle of the road and generally fuck up out plans.
Anyway, after being delayed for a little bit, we were back on our way!
So we drove down, got stuck in what we thought was ANOTHER crash or roadworks, so we took a slight detour a few exits early and made our way down.
We got lost, obviously. nothing like a bit of getting lost nonsense, then arrived to be greeted by this;
It looked the part from the front and back.
The inside was no exception, this thing was SPOTLESS. the only thing missing was the centre vent where the dash is, however, he has that sitting in the boot all wrapped up if I didn't want the gauges.
And then, now this is the best part. Usually these have a boring rb20de nonsense, no turbo, sluggish, boring. this one however has a fresh(ish) rebuilt rb25det running 11psi boost, i will post mods list below.
And so with all that seen, a good talk, I got in had a fang around - not sure why it looks like im in oncoming traffic, I think im just going around a round about or something haha.
But yeah, holy dam; my first turbo car I have properly looked at seriously and it did not disappoint.
So after the deal I'm getting it with basically everything EXCEPT the plates - I wasn't a fan of ILE57 plates but he loves them, been on his previous few cars so he was happy to keep them.

Anyway, so only had this for a week and have pulled out the speakers, 4x6's in the fronts and I think 5's in the parcel shelf, going to add a sub along with new speakers and an amp, probably a new head unit. Just so its a bit more modern and what not.
Picked up a new intake as well! I really **** the stock RB intake.
And a parting shot;
So this should hopefully be a good bit of fun this car!
