I wouldn't say featured, and its certainly not banzai / jap performance....

Surely that's his car in EVO 67, March 2004? Why yes it is!

I think this really adds something to the ownership experience - "my car's been in EVO!" Chet has a bit of S history! Nice one.

I remember this article when it came out. It's in the "Driven" section, prompted by the 04 revisions, and is a very positive read.

I thought the S looked fantastic and it's testament to these cars that that the same motor looks lovely 6 years on.

Anyone else got a "published" car out there?

Dave.
...and to answer your second question regarding spec.... standard!

Didn't some pleb have a feature on his and then he got banned from here? I see no need to go chasing pages, but if that's what you want...

None of the magazines seem to want to feature a modified car anymore - bring back 'Max Power' when it was actually a good read - probably about 20 years ago , e.g. mkII escort with 400bhp cosworth engine & 4X4 runnning gear built in some blokes shed

Of course S2Ki.com gets a mention as does Rob from Garage R, because without you guys the car wouldn't be what it is!

Oh, and look who's in next months issue....



Thanks for looking.

I had my BMW Z4 3.0 featured when it was supercharged to 370bhp. I really should dig the feature out, was back in 2007.
