Smile Hello all

Hi all from the UK (rip-off island!)

Thought i'd register as I think this place is great to learn about my car!

I have a C-west kitted 93FD with HKS induction and Kakimoto R exhaust ) Only had it about 3 months so far but loving every minute!

Here's a pic:



See ya around!

Andy

Very sharp car. Welcome to the boards. Just like Tom mentioned, do you have any pix of the engine bay? I'd be interested to look at a few things under there. Beautiful car. Laterz.

That is one gorgeous car you have there. I love the way the sunset (or rise) reflects off of it. Nicely done.

ARGH!!! If all that money wasnt spent on the "looks" you would have one sick fast car, too bad. But theres always room for improvement though.

Hey now, don't forget there are ghettos in Europe, too....

And actually, at least a little better than his intakes breathing only heated underhood air...

FNM, You should run that duct up from underneath next to the radiator... RAM Air - cold air induction action. Nice car!

I bet the previous owner of the car had a bunch of bolt-ons before he sold the car to FNM, and just sold them... That's what most people do...

Sadly I don't think it will reach, its a crappy excuse for an intake pipe. I'll investigate getting something a bit better as it's pretty useless as it stands

I think yer right about him selling the proper ones, seems odd how someone who would spend around £12,000 on mods would skimp with that sad excuse.. have to see what I can get in the UK... thanks for the advice bud
