Texhnolith's C-West GT Widebody S15 Spec S RB25DET

Thought I should open up a member ride thread as well
I've bought the car back in december of 2011 and had some big plans in mind. This is also the reason I bought a Spec S (L-Package) and not a Spec R.
I never intended on keeping the SR20 engine as I wanted to do a RB25DET swap, so it would have been a waste spending a lot more on the Spec R version.

I bought the car in Ireland and drove it home to Holland. Had it registered and emediatly after I took it apart so I could start with the engine swap.
To cut to story short. we are almost 20 months further now, the RB25 is in and I ended up getting a C-West GT widebody kit.
All that is left is some detailing on the paint (painted it in my garage at home) to get some dust and bad spots out. Fix up some panels that arnt alight properly yet.
And have the car mapped.

The car will be mapped by Sky-Engineering in holland and we are expecting something around the number of 450bhp.
After the mapping I got plenty of plans left but you will see them posted in this thread as I get to them.

For now some photos and a speclist

As you can see I dont have wheels in proper sizes just yet. The ones on the photos where borrowed for the event I went to.
I did this as my Koenig Special wheels are still in japan waiting to be shipped. Once they have arrived I will refurbish them with larger lips so I will end up with something along the lines of 9.5 and 10.5J wheels.

Thanks everyone.

The rideheight isnt sorted yet indeed. I only had the car back from the tuner 5 days before the event those photos where shot at.
Those photos where taken on saturday. And the tuesday before it was looking like this:


So I had to massively hurry to get the car done in time and didnt have time to sort the ride height since I did the final assembly of the car at that same meeting (skirts and bumpers).

Sadly not yet. Where some issues with the ship they came on. Should have them very soon though.
But once i have them they will need to be refurbished and widened before they can be fitted to the car.
