car looks ok - some pretty nice bits on it ! Tein, Buddy Club etc are JDM "tuner" buzzwords, I can't really imagine that some random Gran bought lots of hot boyracerr bits after reading Fast4's tho. Maybe it came from Japan like that.

as for the feedback .... :|

I like the "The car has the most wickedist induction noise and pod filter noise ive ever herd, louder than a BOV - serious" - there should be virtually no induction noise as the turbo acts as an inlet silencer, so if there is any noise it's coming from the turbo itself.... noisy turbo, not good.

Aslo they say "It pops, backfires and blows flames out the exhaust." well get it tuned! The odd pop is fine but too much back fire will kill a turbo as it creates a sonic shock wave back up the exhaust, causing the turbo to try and spin the other way.... not good.

Lastly "GRN RCR" Gran Racer... yeah right.....

And it's Green - yucky yucky yucky......

I drove that car a few months ago when my wife and I "found it" while we were visiting a shop while on a Sunday drive. The noise mentioned was from a very loud exhaust. You couldd hardly talk in the car while accelerating. - Ian
