So wait everyone was getting all googly eyed over that piece of trash mad max car......so that means this car is worse???? i personally dont care for it too much but its different and i'll give him props for that....seems like if it's not a stock car w/jdm valences and "slammed" its not "accepted" ......meh bash if you want but thats my dos centavos.... and i bet if it was placed in front of 95% of members on this board to add to their stable of cars theyd snatch it up in a heartbeat the other 5% are liars if they wouldnt

Unless your definition of slammed is a car creating sparks as it drive then that car is pretty low allready

ARC = HUGE wastes of money.If you feel like paying for overhead and the "JDM tyte tax" go ahead. Your also the guy buying Project Mu stuff because it is expensive.Plenty of products with same or better quality for half the price.

My 2 cents

I don't hate it.... I would change the wheels, change front bumper, and Remove the stickers and if I had to have them on for sponsers I would place them better. I really don't see what is so bad about it. Better than most I see.

Could do without the stickers or the hood coloring, but otherwise I think it's pretty nice.

Personally, I doubt the owner drives around with these gay stickers on a daily basis. Like most sponsored guys that I know, they only put the stickers on for special engagements to fulfill contractual obligations. But, he did put them in some wierd places...

Honestly, I don't know much about Extreme Dimensions since I'm more into OEM aero myself, but the fitment seems ok. And if he had unpainted carbon fiber hood/trunk, I'd bet we wouldn't be hearing so many bashes on the paint...

If I had to rate it, I'd give it a 7.5 out 10. -1 for wheel size-1 for hood paint scheme-.5 for ride height considering that these are 19's...

LOL! Funny video.

I honestly am looking at it again and it is not a bad build i think he did alright.

It looks better then the majority of 240's in this community so i don't get what is so bad about it.

And by the way, There is NOTHING wrong with stickers......

I think you should give him another .2 for just not having a broke down POS, and actually getting out there and getting sponsors. Actually having fun with all of it.

Sponsors don't "make you cool" but it is not easy for all companies and it can be fun.

But i thought the more sponsor stickers you have on a car the cooler you are??.. hahah...

Car is not my style, but if its the owners style then good for him for building a car he wants.

It has fender gap....

and like I said, with the MONEY he SPENT he might as well have gotten ARC, Aspec, Moonface, Bride, and Nardi interior pieces instead of MOMO crap. The only reason I stated this in the first place is because in the article they made it seem like a big deal that his car was decked out with MOMO gear.. lmao

I don't know how ARC is a huge waste of money when he is spending the dough already, they make awesome products.

and lol at project mu.

+1 for the paintjob.

-1 for questionable HP figures and vague engine specs.

"Stage 2 ported/polished cylinder head"? WTF?

His engine build is VERY similar to mine (I have FAR more work into mine), and I'm not seeing 500+ hp.

I call shens.

I was skeptical of the mod list but being unfamiliar with the Turbo I withheld.

You'd be correct.

I have the same turbo, with more internal work. Hell, I don't think Structure (Anthony) was even making that much power.

Again, I call shens.

Very correct as well. 500+ out of that build is VERY questionable.

I'll buy 380 / 350 all day long. But 500?

Yeah, my build is very similar and I'm not putting down those kinds of numbers, of course I'm not boosting 30lbs or anything. I noticed No dyno sheet displayed to sustantiate the claims.

Nothing wrong with Momo, so don't be dissing it! Made in Italy is not made in Japan okay...
