Very nice car... would love to see more pics of the motor. You have such a large variety of wheels to choose from, I think you should have either done the stock ones you have in all gloss black, no silver stripe with some 15mm wheel spacers in the front and back, and if you need that stripe, go for red to match the theme of the car (brakes, lights, motor). If your going to get a new set I would do a light light silver or brushed look to really make them pop against your black car. Quick question, do you have the Bose subs in the back? and if you do how did you get that Turbo badge on?

Very nice car. As far as wheels.... well it is a matter of personal taste. I like the HRE monoblock series. Just look as the banner at the top of this page.

Nice ride!!!

I know you mentioned the mods before; Has the motor been built internally
with different rods, etc?

HRE's are always a nice choice, and then maybe tint the windows.

looks good the only thing that bugs me is the 9ff badge placement. id prolly take the turbo lettering off the deck lid and put the 9ff there instead of having it on the rear cover.

Cool,

Just to clarify, 9FF changed your camshafts and put the heads back
onto a stock bottom end. Stock crankshaft, rods and pistons.
Did they change out the head bolts?

I wonder why most of European tuners go with camshafts after stage2 mods ( ECU , Exahust and airfilters )..Are those camshafts will really gain worh it hp/tq numbers?

If yes ...Why U.S tuners stick with stock camshafts with stg2 cars?

I know U.S tuners regrind stock camshafts or go with aftermarket camshafts only when build high hp cars.

Powerstar: How much those camshafts would cost ? regrind or aftermarket? what kind of hp/tq they would make?
