The final stages of the project will be coming together throughout the year, namely finishing off the Do-luck bodykit and new 19" Volk TE37's.

Hope you all like it.

Nope, not bronze. Special order Mercuary Silver with Diamond cut lip (basically dark silver with a polished lip). :P

Thanks for the thumbs up on the engine bay, its taken about a year and a half to get to this stage and ALOT of money.

Hell yeah. You can hear the cash register ch'ching just lookin' in there.

Great choice on the wheel finish.

Unfortunately our mod laws are getting stricter so I'm spending money jsut trying to still "look" stock :P

Thats one thing they haven't really clamped down on here in the UK, you can mod the car as much as you like and as long as it passes an MOT your fine, how long it will stay that way im not too sure.

With the wheels i just wanted to be a little bit different colour wise

    • If you like more modern stuff than the R series, you should check out a V37 400R, they are pretty mod friendly
    • Haha luckily we don't have emissions, inspections, or any laws against power adders here. They only thing they somewhat keep an eye out for are ridiculously loud exhausts. 
    • Just wanted to pop in an update on my setup. The CD swap has been great, I love the mazworks housing for the overall simplicity. I ended up sealing my trans tunnel with a thin sheet of aluminum reused some of the holes on the trans tunnel, and laid some window sealing EPS foam around the edges. Works great, really quieted things down and sealed up the car.  As for the power comment. Right now I am also running about 650whp. with the way the bell housing is attached to the face of the transmission I have zero doubts it would be fine, mainly because the input shaft and main shaft bearings are seated into the bell housing adapter. This means the load is NOT on the bolts to maintain the power, rather into he casing of the bell housing; Yes the bolts are doing some work there, but with both shafts locked in zero worries.  End of the day, the Mazworks solution is the easiest and safest. no need to take your trans to a shop to get milled perfectly, it fits with minimal clearancing, and you can use all your existing clutch and flywheel.  Driving wise the CD has been great compared to the big box, I'll probably swap my final drive at some point. The serial 9 shifter is gooooood, my only qualm is how tight it is, it takes a fair bit to get use to, 5th and 6th are a bit eh/hard to find at times, but maybe I need re-adjusting, and I think my clutch master is very tired and needs a rebuild. 
    • If you are keen, have a look at my build thread. Car is for sale for the right money or straight swap for a F80 M3 LCI.
    • Welcome mate.  No point in over thinking it, buying any one of those cars you mentioned is not a smart or logical choice with the availability of many "better" (re price to performance) cars available to you.  The heart wants what the heart wants, buy whatever it leads you too.
