Post by: Frikkin Evil on March 01, 2009, 09:59:11 pm: Yay, another one from the Kingdom of Fours! By my calculations, that means that about 20% of us Fifers have a GT-Four. Interesting.

Welcome mate. I guess you'll be hard to miss with the Castrols.

As for this 40 thing, whats that then? Ive heard thats when you start driving daewoo nexias and complaining about those 'boy' racers?
Title: Re: just arrived
Post by: paul_gt4 on March 03, 2009, 01:09:45 pm: hi there really nice pics there buddy, have to ask though, do you have problems with temps as i see your using a CS bonnet with i'm assuming a tmic because i can't see a fmic behind the ATA front bumper. Hope the car gives ya plenty more problem free miles, and WTTC.
Title: Re: just arrived
Post by: flyingtele on March 03, 2009, 01:58:43 pm: well, thats one really nice looking motor! would love to see a pic of the engine bay if at all possible.as paul_gt4 mentioned, are you running a tmic? or are you using a cc from a 205 or CS?
