first mods i done was removed the HRF front bumper and fitted a oem bumper, fitted amber indicators and painted the wheels white

well its just laying there if anyone wants to make me an offer lol



I've just pulled it out the garage after it being tucked away since September but when i pulled it out the other day and there's something wrong it i have an engine managment light on and it wont rev past 4k rpm, its fine bellow 4k but when i try rev past it i just get loud pops and bangs with black smoke and a strong smell of fuel so im going to find out what the code is tomorrow when i have daylight.



my plans this year is to get the following



ramhorn manifold


garrett gt28


3" full exhaust system


decent engine management


get a set of toyo r888's for the rota wheels i recently got for it


do something with the gearbox because before i took it of the road second gear started crunching slightly
