If it is its a really good fake!!! the only panel i can pull off easy is the front bumper which i haven't had a reason too yet to check. I bought this car for the engine all the other stuff is just icing. The wheels, Air Runner, System will all be sold and be replaced track goodies.

Shame to hear it was built with cutting corners but it seems like its in the right hands now. Takes a lot to admit to us that it wasn't all that it was cracked up to be. Salvage title..wow..Good luck with that..

Well this is the way the exhaust is set up. 3in DP from the turbos, 3in mid pipe, then it splits into two 1 1/2 in pipes with a glass pack on each pipe and turn downs before the diff. Needless to say. it sounds ok. but a T78 with full 4in single would sound 100x better!

Air Runners will be up once i can qualify for the classified form. But they are For Sale right now. PM me for price. they have around 7KM on them(my speedo is the aristo speedo so everything is in KM). Great condition. no cracks in the rubber... everything is set up ready to go.... etc etc I still recommend a professional install but you and a buddy could do the job in a day with the help of a 12 pack of course.

An about the brakes. I need to get some decals made before i take them off and paint them. But its in the works. I hate seeing chipped brakes through the wheels... hate it...
