Im very impressed... it have an EA82 non turbo engine and its fwd and 5 speed manual gerbox.
mostly all the work is in the inside, I live music, so it has a lot of new speakers inside and installed an radio mesh device, so i can tune the radio from my car with any normal radio :)
I reeplaced the standard light set for an Xenon lamps set , added a pair of foglights hidden behind the front mask and reeplaces almost all the "fish-tail" lamps for white LEDS and added an extra set of lights under the control pannel to like an coutesy lights.
And ( at last) i manage myself to make my car to spit fire in the exhaust XD.
(I tried to upload the video but i cant).
