nice dude

 

[Chris VIII GSR]

Thank's a lot bud

 

[Billy MR]

i was looking for a red one before i got mine,

whats horse power on that baby?

 

[Chris VIII GSR]

LOL. I wasn't fussed about it when I first bought it but It's really grown on me now.

I had a silver FQ300 before tuned to 420BHP which I really loved..

This one was Dynod at 253BHP when I first bought it, but it was only running 1.1Bar of boost and had a shit AFR plus the EGR and decat were blowing lol.

Following all the work done to it the turbo is pretty much maxed out so I'd estimate circa 360BHP but no more really. I had BC 272 cams and an 80 series on the FQ and that was mentally quick.

Haha cheers bud it just finishes the job off I think. Need to get a smaller stick on one for the front though, the one that's on is MASSIVE lol

 

[fq-craigus]

Think it's about the same size as mine, I would prefer a smaller one so when I et my bumper sprayed I'll get a smaller plate

 

[Chris VIII GSR]

Nice one mate! How much did it cost to get the middle Mitsubishi badge removed from the bumper? PM me if you like

 

[fq-craigus]

I did it with Stevey b off here, just cut it out filled the gap smoothed and temp sprayed just needs full bumper spray

Good work mate! That takes some super furry kahoonas to do that yourself! I had enough on splitting and painting my headlights on both cars

Nightmare mate! Bet you were thrilled!

Yeh the lights are well worth the hassle.. Only took me 6hrs from start to finish the second time as I was in a rush and didn't let the paint dry properly between coats:whistling:

 

[fq-craigus]

Oh yh was over the moon lol, people just have no respect.

Yh took me a good hour an half to split a light I was so worried I would crack it
