I was genuinely shocked you hadn't won Edwin, but then I remembered you hadn't finished it :roll: :lol:

Btw, my wheels sit better now with more camber :mrgreen:

Cool, have a pic? How's the drive with more camber at the front?

Also, why didn't *you* win? :shock: :D

No pics yet, still need to add 30 more mins to the fronts and then done. There wasn't much added to the front yet, but correcting the toe in helped as it was wayyyyyy out :eye: Will get it finalised in a month so will put a pic up, with my volk/rays wheel nuts too :mrgreen:

Several reasons I wouldn't expect to win, mainly the engine is no where near up to scratch, need some stone chips removing and I wasn't there long enough :eye: Should have a better shot next year but doubt I'd win even then as I've been around too long... plus you'll win next year :lol:

Wow! 2 x 8 mega pixel files uploaded at full resolution!!!

Stunning car, Edwin :thumleft:

The beauty of the high-res files, I guess, is that you can crop.

Treated myself to a new Apexi GT-spec exhaust this week! I always loved this exhaust for its design, flow and stainless construction. I bought the car with an HKS HiPower exhaust, which is a really good exhaust too, but I just had to have this one! :eye:

Wow! This exhaust put a smile right on my face. Seemed like a little more power at the low revs, and a gorgeous sound! Now some new pics :wink:

I'm thinking about bending the grille out of the way... I'm still undecided, I liked the grill with my HKS exhaust but now it just seems to float there.

The exhaust was surprisingly cheap, I paid EUR 625 (about GBP 420) incl. shipping, duties etc.

Interesting to see a pic of a new GT spec, looks like they have refined the design yet again. The one i had the hanger was welded to the thinner diameter tubing before the 5" exit, then they did a version with a stainless band clamp around the can and now this version.. Very nice! Loved mine, but was a bit loud for day-day use! (Have the berk twin now)
Loved seeing the car at JAE Edwin!

Cheers mate, I also noticed the refined designs from earlier pics! I'm glad I didn't get the band clamp design, I feel this is a much cleaner solution. I love the sound, but agreed, for an every-day car it is a little loud. Not much though, cruising at around 120 - 130 km/h it's not much louder than my previous HKS HiPower. When you step on it, that's when it gets a lot louder :)

Love the bronze tint off the sun in this image,awesome!!! :twisted:

Oh yeh Edwin,expect more power from the GT exhaust along with faster spooling turbo my Apexi exhaust raised it's boost by itself from one bar to
one point two seven three bar.Usual mods with cooling extras driving CT twenty turbo and OE ECU.Watching the missus's face after a longer drive was priceless!!! :twisted: :lol:

Argh mate, what an MR 2 :clap:
