Hey there..new around here...well there's my turbo cordia

Pretty much stock..just has Turbo GEN III exhaust system 3'' bent pipe. Home made extractors. Just getting upgraded later on. And yes that's custom home made Carbonfiber bonnet with boost gauge.

Anyways there's pictures.















Damn it, I need new set of rims. I'm sick of seeing those stock 13's..

Anyways...any suggest ?

Hey mate, Your car looks tough! welcome to the forums aye.

As for rims a set of 17Inch buddy clubs will set it off quite nicley


imho put the boost guage inside the car

looks good... agreed with the boost gauge though.. reminds me of the GT boys in lygon st with all the gauges hanging outa the bonnet...

hrm... am i showing my age there??

Thanks man.

LOL @ boost gauge, because mine doesn't even work. So i end up bought the boost gauge for 10 bucks off ebay. Lol nobody will touch it around my town.

edit: I was bored I thought this picture was actually cool. Don't you think ?

I've just finished spraying my bonnet Fast_4 if it wasn't for that i woulda arranged with ya to get a carbon bonnet.
Maybe next yr lol.. if i get bored of my bonnet..
Otherwise i would like to make other stuff with carbon fibre such as the centre console, rear boot spoiler, dash cluster, odds n bits..
Is there a guide on making things with carbon fibre? i thought you needed a pressured oven..

haha..fair enough..i got carbon fibre dash too not too bad, looks better than before in my option. Soon i'm going to carbon fiber my boot, when I get the time for it. It's runnin like shit atm I need fix it then when done that, I will be doing more body work. And no you don't need to pressured oven, I left it outside for one night it drys for 1 night. Things works.

well i guess you can't complain for a tenner! unfurtunately where i used to live it woulda lasted about two days before some punk ass hater would have snapped it off and taken it down to the local cash converters...

Ah that would sucked :/ I had that thing on my bonnet for 2-3 months now..and yeah I've been waited for somebody to snap the fucker off, but they still haven't, wonder why?

The scoop looks like something off of a Vector, anyway nice car.
