beautiful car!!! Someone hand me a towel. I can't believe all everyone (except one comment) is interested in is trivial **** like body mods. WERES ENGINE PICS?!?!?! Give some engine specs, like porting, manifolds, turbo specs 9like A/R's etc) etc etc......

I'm curious as to what kind of tranny he is using. Once my car starts to scatter transmission, I'm thinking about the guru dogbox $$$. Also, what kind of rearend is he running (stock LSD, kazz..etc). Lastly which ecu is he running? That about does it for my questions.

Yo,

Car looks great! Those wheels are HUGE though, but that seems to be the style in Australia. I will talk to Racing Beat and try and get that issue of Fast Fours and Rotaries!

Nice work!

Wow, that car is abosolutely beautiful. Never seen anything like that before - at least never seen on with that much power that wasn't riced to hell. Anyway, this is kind of a personal question, and you don't have to answer if you don't want to - but how much money is put into that car ? I am just curious home much $$$ it takes to hit 5xx hp.

That's excellent. I think eVilRotor's white S5 is better though. I'm partial to white TIIs...

Dayyymmm dude! Thanks!!!!, but....

...my car is actually an S4....

...and, there is no way in hell that my cars engine bay even comes close to touching that thing. Its absolutely mint.

All shiny, hardly any visible wiring, all SS braided lines. That's a work of art for sure. And on a whole other level
