The body kit does nothing for me but wouldn't mind seeing some engine installation pics...

I was wondering why the lack of engine pics!

Hi,
I believe it's a 1.4 in real life, only in it's magical on-line life has it suddenly become an Evo engined monster.
Cheers

I gave it a 1, it looks cack.
If it did have an evo engine transplant, the engine would probably reject it and run away to join the circus in shame

BHP 295 talk is easy! Wonder if he has anything to prove it.

would be the right figure for an evo 8 engine with the mods, but i'm curious about no engine pics, or why waste a perfectly good evo engine and put it in that pile of sh1te

'Full brembo disk conversion' - consisting of painted rear drums and what appears to be standard front brakes! Also loving the 'air suspension' using Spax springs!
Whoever owns that needs serious pwnage.
