Sounding better and better all the time :D

 Who are you buying it through?  I enquired with Newera about importing a nice FC, they said around £5800 for a decent one.  How much (if you dont mind saying) have you had to pay?

Post by: samfc3s on April 08, 2005, 04:56:15 PM
I paid 6K for this beast as it is built and tuned by Panspeed. People probobably think i m mad as i can get a FD for that money....but i just like the way FC handle and looks of it;)

is better than a FD right ?:rolleyes:

There is a FC for sale in Rotary Imports which is for 7K, i think is a big single Turbo!

I also have a white TurboII and I am in the process of moding my car similar to yours.
Same wheels 8x17 and 9x17, coilovers (maybe HKS), full bucket seats, stripped interior, will be installing a 6 point roll cage in a few days and maybe slightly more horsepower.
When I saw the photos of your car, I was surprised to say the least. And when I saw your videos I was exited...
You made a very good descision on buying the car in my opinion.

Post by: TRex on April 16, 2005, 11:00:29 AM
Apprehensive at first on the car.....

 But the more I see of it, it looks really ace! :yes

 Seems a good choice dude, really like to see it live(in the flesh) as I believe thats where it will shine out.

 When are you expecting to actually collect the car?
