What kind of turbine you got in there, looks serious. You have to many colors in the engine bay. I counted 5 all together. I wouldn't go more than 2. The yellow zip ties definetly have to go, they make your engine bay look tacky.

it cost way too much
I bought the car for 34.000 USD and added on top another 50.000 USD. Everything had to be shipped from the states and Japan. and besides I had to pay import tax and vat tax (20% of the amount that you see are taxes)

I can believe it.... assuming all those body parts are authentic. Labor & paint can't be cheap either

It adds up over time.
