Nice mate, congrats Will have to check it out soon

Thats the first time I've seen the RSK seats in an RX, and they look good because they look like they belong there and it doesn't look after-market. And a GTB rear wing would top it off nicely on the visual side of things. Be sure to post dyno figures as soon as you get 'em. Be interesting to see how its running BTW - I read that comment RE: woodgrain on OzN00b. OMG what an gronk that guy is.....tree woodgrain FTW

I read that comment RE: woodgrain on OzN00b. OMG what an gronk that guy is.....tree woodgrain FTW

I wrote about the woodgrain too!! Personally im not a fan of it. It lasted 2 days before i changed it on a previous car.

What i am a fan of is your wagon overall Alex. Top work. Im very keen to see what it makes on the dyno.

^My comment was directed at the n00b who called it "rice"

Wow, what an ugly damned car... Wait, ugly isn't the word I wanted. F**king sexy... yes, that's it. Come for a cruise to the mountains so you can show me how it runs

[Evil_VZ-T]

About time mate, I remember back in the day when your mate crashed it just after you bought it. This is the best example of doing it right the first time.. good work Alex

[alexGT]
