Loved the Red one you had, this one kicks ***** to... Lots of awesome parts of into it..

Im usually not the biggest fan of the feed kit, but I rely like it in the white.. It adds a bit of subtle aggression to it..

Have you had any trouble with battery yet?

I consider running Li-po's in mine but I did not think the potential risk was worth it, have a few friends that do hobby stuff with them and heard some stories.. I didn't read anywhere, are you running li-ion, or Li-po?

You still have an extra one laying around you would consider selling?

I'm in a 93 jdm so it should just drop in
.
Either way... Like the direction your taking this thing..

Cheers.

Im actually looking at one right now pm me for details

And thank you for the kind words.
Reason for the feed kit is the simplicity that wont really change the oem lines and availability is Definitely a factor

The battery is the work of a friend. I can ask what cells hes using but he sold a few of them and they seem to last fine for 2+ years. So far no problems with mine but it has been barely used

Damn Costas, you've been spending a mint on this car lately..... I think I may want cash after all for those special engine parts we've been speaking about

Good work man, way to bounce back from the fire. I know first hand about FD tragedies unfortunately, ours were like 10 days apart I think right?

Sick car Costa! Good job choosing the right parts for the build.

If it you don't mind me asking, who will tune your car?
