    December 2012 ROTM - bogaut

    I originally bought this car in august of 2011 from Jason, who worked at corksport. He wanted to sell both 4wd proteges as a package deal. Once he decided to separate the package, i picked it up that week. It came with a swapped b8 bottom end, and BP head, 3 hole front, and facelift sedan rear bumper.

    I ran the car n/a for a while, but with the loss of power through that 4wd drivetrain, and the lower compression ratio, it was pretty gutless.

    Fast forward to december 2011, i found a good deal on a GTR motor package, and swapped it in, and along the way have acquired many rare jdm/edm parts.

    Recently had it dyno'd at 248hp/251tq

    I've decided that my car is a girl, she's picky as hell, won't listen to me, always wants to fight me, and when i give her presents it's never good enough and she always wants more.
