Reader’s Rides & Import Tuners

This car is very special to me.  It is my first turbo car and the first car I ever built.  I am very proud of this car because I did all of the work my self with the exception of the machine work and assembling the block.  There are a lot of custom one off pieces and brackets that were made and everything came together so nicely, especially with the colors and the powder coating.  The inside is extremely clean and functional.  It appears to be stock, even with the 8" screen in the dash the car just flows.
