Awesome build man that is one beautiful SW20. You deserve all the awards it gets. You've clearly put the hard yards in to get it where it is today. One thing I noticed was the dump pipe gasket, you went with what looks like a thin SS. Any reason for that over OEM? I only ask because I had to do it and waited 2 weeks for the OEM gasket.

It was good to come into MCM Nationals behind your car, shame we didn't get to meet up but with you at the drags and me at the motorkhana it gets difficult to meet up with people. I did manage to film your race with my mate from the MCM forums Jenga. Mind the potato spec quality film: https://youtu.be/s7ZiyBMU49U

It was good haha, it was up at Motorkhana all day long and I wasn't around it much because of everything else going on. No worries it's about all I recorded that day haha. Keen to catch up, I want to drive down to a Syd meet but failing that I'll go to Toyotafest in October :p 

Great job on the launch by the way it did make a big difference at the other end. Looking forward to more updates.
