95 TT.. :cool:

wish i got $ for a single turbo & the lot though.. (workin' on it..) :(

it was black before when i got it..

uses Volk GT-C 18" rims, 245/40F and 275/35R Potenza S03s..

stuff i put in so far are;
Blitz BOV
Apexi Airfilter
Apexi N1 downpipe & exhaust
Greddy 3-row FMIC
TEIN HA coilovers
Greddy BCC
Ganador M3-style mirrors
basic OEM lip, sideskirts & rear
Veilside 360km/h speedo
HKS Boostmeter
Veilside Gearknob

i've got Kenwood mp3 player, speakers & subs in the boot..

basically i need to get boost controller, turbo kits, ECU, fuel systems, which is a big step forward.. i would go on talking all day long but i'm not about to..

Hey, that looks awesome! Is that a stock colour, or was it completely repainted?

Dare to take my official UCP ownership challenge? You'll get 2 reputation points for a picture of a sheet of paper with your name on it stabbed over the shifter ;)

nah, its actually a weird "mixed-colour" paint. cant remember what the name was but the car looks purple at night and greyish something in daylight..

Goddamn.... there are shitload of wannabe trolls on site aint it. I bet If i posted pics of my 328, V70t-5 and a shit box proton, ppl will ask me proof of ownership for the cars, right?

oh btw, they are not my parents cars as they drove an S and a 5er.

You'll find Bruce, that this is one site which has few trolls.
Spend a bit more time looking around and contributing and you'll see the difference.

One of the reasons is we do have the "egg-nog test" which DOES require proof of ownership when any wannabee claims ownership of a decent car.
To date I don't think ANYONE has been asked to do proof of ownership on a LADA :)

Pretty soon trolls find out we don't care about them !!
After all they're usually ony allowed on the computer for 1 hour a day in the psychiatric wards !!!

How come the 2 pics have different rims? This smells fishy..

Read his post. He said it used to be black, and he listed modifications. Even if you don't believe him, you can't argue that point :)

Hmm, he does mention one thing about the wheels, not if he bought them or changed them or anything. Ah well, seems like a genuine enough sorta guy...

Read the whole thread buddy. Hes supplied us with a a fair bit of proof.

On another note, awesome car man! It looks great in that colour, how long have you had it for?

Have you run a dyno or quarter mile yet?

thanx spastic_roach.. i've had it for about 2 years now. basically a year in black, a year with this colour now. nah, i dont wanna do a dyno on it coz i'm not quite sure i'm gonna be 'happy' with them since it's not gonna be much different from the stock figures.. i might consider it if i get the boost controller this summer. i fear for engine detonation tho..
besides that, i'm pretty much strapped for cash right now..

Hows about a quarter mile? I'm sure it would run a very quick one.

panthrax

haha err im not too sure i wanna do a quarter mile. anyway, where im from there arent any official drag strips or watever.. i'd give it a shot when i've uprated the clutch. at the moment, its still living on a i-dunno-wth-clutch it is. still alot of things i havent found out in the car..til something goes wrong.. already had a whole engine overhaul coz of a leaking piston from the previous owner so im not sure of the invisible 'faults' of my car. :(

Beautiful car nice choice on th 275/35R Potenza's we sell them here at Bob Jane not quite as good as the Pirelli's P Zero's but still nice better than any Cooper or Toyo crap.
