Cleaned up my pictures folder, and great memories are worth sharing!
First exterior mod! CF hood. Then came the koni yellows on eibach prokits, and other suspension bars.

CarPC was the cooler thing to do back in the days of yore. I'm all about jamming stuff in, not like i'm trying to win awards.

Didn't like the rear tail light pattern, had to do up something custom. And might as well overdo it everywhere else!

Somewhere I put an AEM intake on too, came off a yaris but whatever, it worked.
I went through like 3 different exhausts, only snapped one which was the most awesome one. Currently just jammed on an apexi ws2 from a civic, looks like total ass but loud mufflers got boring.

OK now gauges are in, get this heap of metal in for some actual gains. Kit I bought had a blown turbo, took a while to find replacements that were less broken.
