heh ill get some up when i can, right now im still figuring out where everything fits... its complicated... this kit was ACTUALLY made for an FC, so its gonna take some custom work to apply it to my FD.

apparently its an old RE - Amemiya kit.

be a man and sell those turbos and get a single setup . you got the whole car apart whats the point of not going all out at this point. you know your going to do it one day why not just go for gold now.
