    Returning to JDM turbo in a funky new car

    Never really left the Club (cos you never really leave the Club) but back in a little more after taking ownership of a new car.
    I am now the proud owner of The Fridge. A car I fell in love with back when @elnevio first had it, and with circumstances just falling into place in recent months, saw us agreeing very favourable terms which now sees me in ownership of a very unique car on the roads!

    Have had it just over a month now and slowly getting used to the power delivery. For those unfamiliar, its based on the Evo 3 with the 4G63T with around 250bhp as standard. This has an EBC so should hopefully be seeing more than that.

    Nev's loss is definitely your gain Atik. It's still looking lovely, a testament to the previous owner.

    Alas, you're too kind (unless you mean the previous owner between me and me! ). The leading edge of the bonnet had blown - though Atik was looking to get it sorted and take it onwards and upwards! One thing I remained impressed with was how good the underside and other potential areas of concern are - pretty damn solid
