  1. Welcome mate don't rush into buying the closest one around some of the nicest examples seem to be up north and 2500 quid is quite a strong budget especially if your after a gt
  2. Cheaper to catch a plane to the nearest airport mate have a nice long test drive home then. Ps central England come on supposed to be welsh boyo never wish for that lol
  3. perhaps some custom piping would be the answer could always flog the short route on here personally i like the standard bumper as it is.
  4. I don't wanna do it ideally mate but the top mount is so ugly in the bay how do some people get away without chopping it?

  7. As above are these Ebay, hdi, fmic's any good i have bought one but turned up today huge,heavy core and Chinese writing on the box should i send it back as i have heard mixed reviews not planning on huge power for the moment sorting the handling out first. What do people think do they do the same job as the more expensive branded parts? Thanks James
