I feel the need ... the need for speed

Hey all the names Greg I live in London UK ive been a rotary nut for some years now I have a heavily modded RX8 which I luv but recently I got to that point where I needed power and it was cheaper to invest in an FD then a decent turbo kit, so I bought my first FD and wow what a car it had had a few bits done to it like a rebuilt ported engine along with a none sequecial turbo setup , uprated intercooler and suspension its still in need of finishing but its coming together nicely.

Anyway this is her or atleast how she looked when I bought her since then the spoiler has been removed and the bumper has been replaced by a R magic nose will soon be slapping some rrota Grids on there aswell but il do a little progress thread on that.
