    Interesting rear end.....

    What on earth has this got stuck to the back of it? Looks like some sort of aftermarket plastic jobby - answers on a postcard!

    Yeah, it's part of an aftermarket kit Dan - You see them a lot on Carview Japan. Doesn't do anything for the back of the car IMHO.

    Totally agree Kieran its absolutely hideous - I really dont get why people feel the need to do it apart from individuality of course but surely you would want to improve the asthetics!

    It's just a HKS Super power flow with the standard snorkel still in place. Mind you, it looks like it was last washed when King Tut was still around!

    I've seen them advertised as "LUCKYSTAR SERIES1 FINISHER". Not a fan of these, but they sure give a whole different look.

    Glad to hear it. He was looking for a car for me just before I got my Legnum just over 2 years ago.

    I don't mind the rear cover. Although I would never put one on mine, he gets points from me for originality.

    My air filter is the same as that but with a 'Blitz' pod. Im not 100% happy with it, it would still be sucking in gobs of hot air until the car was moving. At the moment I think I would rather a standard airbox or vented bonnet with pod...

    I do want to go back to the standard airbox as I understand the legnum suffers badly from heat soak.

    Future plans include, FMIC, better brakes, down pipes etc, BOV

    It also has an apexi safc fitted, so thinking of getting a wideband gauge to keep an eye on it.

    so you'll be wanting a standard air box then the standard set up takes some beating on these cars. and the heat from these engines make saturn 5 rockets jealous.
