Does have some nice mods - love the brakes. coilovers and camber plate.
Hate that wing, even if it's functional. And that A4 Gear light - WTF??? And why use an A4 if serious auto-x? That's stupid, IMHO.
Exterior of the car looks like Rice (to me). Too busy.

Brakes are kick ***. I'm not a fan of the LED tailights but it was cool how they were converted into Euro LED tailights. The car has a lot of interesting mods that are different.

Hmmm...
Even though I think his heart is in the right place, I think he's all over the place when it comes to mods and what he really needs for his specific racing needs.
I do like the way he saved alot of weight using titanium lugs, the lexan hatch glass and those sparco seats. Very cool. Of course, all that weight savings was offset by all the un-needed junk like that wing, triple foglights, air piping within existing ducts, etc.

) but my Vette is not busy like that car. It has a specific theme and all I do is in keeping with that theme.I may be The Rice King - but at least my mods stay in one place!

The problem I have with that car is it looks like the owner got a Mid-America catalogue and took out his credit card and put every 'most popular mod' on it.
Why, oh, why, does every Japanese 'road course' car have to have a damned wing? Sheesh! It's like they have become a parody of themselves.
Get a talented tuner on it with half that 'catalogue mod' stuff and he'd probably have a great car. IMHO.
