Well im a kiwi and i also have a few modified cars. So here is the actual truth. In Nz, if your car is modified you are legally required to get what is called certification which is expensive or you won't be able to get a wof warrant of fitness and without a wof you can't get a registration thus the car will not be legal. Low volume vehicle certification starts at around 700. 00 and goes through the roof from there. I mean seriously in a Western world country you didn't expect the bureaucrats to forget to stick there thieving greedy fingers into that lucrative pie did you? Our police are pretty crooked also (if you get the wrong one)

I'm restoring my 4efte powered Fiat X1/9. I blew the motor about 6 years ago and it's been parked up.
I've got the greatest respect for these little motors.
They are tough tough tough. Mine peaked at 130 bhp at the rear wheels. Just had Ross forged pistons, 2. 5 exhaust (straight thru) and a Microtech ECU. No extraneous paraphernalia as the car is 1979 and doesn't need the pollution bits. It would easily keep pace with WRX STI. In the straight and through the corners.

those gfb controllers are awesome. I had an legacy rs for many years and one of the first mods I did was chuck one of these on. Boost came on so much faster/harder. ended up selling car, took off controller and man what a huge let down the factory controller was, I reckon lost 50hp without it. . ended up putting down 150kw atw with a leaking uppipe with that controller and factory grey injectors.

. Those are reverse drop rims. Kid mounted them wrong. Might want to have them dismounted the proper way and check the beads for any tearing. Thats why he had to pull the bars so hard. It's designed to be taken off face down as not to damage the shiny bits. Personally after 14 years of doing tires i wish every setup was reverse drop. edit just realized this was from 2012 lol nvm

As we get a lot of 2nd hand Japanese imported cars, we have a lot of cars on our road that were never exported from Japan here. Because of Japanese laws many cars there have smaller engines with turbos where an export car would have a bigger NA engine. They pay car tax based on engine size, not power output.

I have wanted one of these for my built boosted Civic for years since I started watching Mighty Mods, but those fuc#ers are 300. I suppose that's still fairly cheap for an EBC, but now I dont need it since I have Hondata S300 V3 and a Mac boost control solenoid.
