Oh I am, still am. It's a lovely fun super duper car, and I'm really happy to have owned it, but it is time to move on. :) I want a bit more comfort and style and creature comforts. :) I'm getting old I guess. I've been given a few offers, which I may consider very very soon. I've already purchased a new car. :)



Paul - Garrett T28 turbo @ 7~8 psi, 48v fuel regulator, TDR Intercooler with short pipes (low lag), full 2.5" bore exhaust from down pipe, 3" downpipe, sport cat, cooler plugs, uprated HT lead, piggy back ECU (several hours of tweaking and tuning!), sports kevlar/organic clutch (nothing to do with power of course), uprated discs and pads (again nothing to do with power), FM induction - again bolted on to the turbo intake pretty much with minimal distance, improved air ducting for said turbo intake, and lots and lots of optimax!!! ;D

I've owned this car over 3 years and it's been a blast, but I'm either going to spend a small fortune on it (re-doing the paint, get better seats, sound system, new soft top and get a hard top for it, bigger injectors, forged internals, head work, oil cooler, more brake upgrades, suspension modifications, LSD etc...) or I can get a nice car with all the luxuries I want and still be a great car to drive which returns more than 20mpg!!! :p

I can sit back and say that I've owned a car that is faster and more fun than 90% of the cars on the road, heck it does 60 in around 5s as it is! It's just time to move on - yes people think it's daft to spend a bit of money (cost me about 3.5k doing all this) keeping it for a year modded up and then getting rid, but we're funny beings us humans!
