Well i've had this EG6 for the last 7+ year's now, and it's been the best car i've own'd
I'll gave you a run down how thing's happend, when i first got her it was the fastest thing i have driven (18 at the time) it was pretty much stock just had some exhaust on there not sure what it was back then and on 40mm springs, anyway's time went on and mod's started happening, first of all was D2 coilover's was happy when that handled so much better with the all level true 40mm drop and rebound etc, Then came the wheel's Cirt 8's, From there the Spoon n1, EK9 recaro's. Time went on again and that's when i got hooked by the boost monstar (Oh joys) I done countless of research oh boost app's and set up's what i wanted to use it for etc etc, Soo i'll let the picture's do the talking now :thumbup:
Had the EK9 as the daily driver, As everything was done ready for the dyno tune so off we went straped ready to go 442.4whp at just over 18psi, was great loved every min of it always got the rush even when driving it normal/slow you just knew that you had that power under your right foot :lol: anyway's 2weeks past, and was coming up to jap show final 07!! drop up north to leicester to see Yasir for more tuning, we cracked on with more tuning and it felt even better faster loved it, so i left yasir with a bigger smile and went down to santa pod (friday night) got 6miles away from pod and this nasty sound happend while i was pulling up to a traffic light, turn the motor off to have a look couldn't see nothing wrong by eye, tryed turning it over again well thats when the death of the b18 happend Droped a valve :cry: (1:30am) 96miles away from home oh joy's got home at 6am, left the car in the garage for awhile didn't know what to do with her, anyway's picked my self back up and started stripping her down to find the damage
Well that was that took the whole motor out and striped it bare again, from there i didnt do nothing for like 2odd years just stayed like it, then i got the dead B18 sleeved with darton Mids, bought a CTR head 44k complete, and started to get the ball rolling again striped the whole shell down to nothing, no fuel line's, brake line's, fuel tank out the lot
I also started to paint the bay too
