I will openly admit on this forum that i recently sent Rick quite a harsh email complaining about things. I had no idea the work, time, and effort that went into everyhting with both these cars. I was winging about not getting pictures and time with things, but i was completely wrong, and Rick, i hope you can accept my apologies, no hard feelings mate

You have done everything i wanted and more so!

I cant wipe the smile of my face from looking at them, they both look absolutely stunning! The wheels set the Cresta off perfectly and the grill has made such a difference, its far too nice to drift, but that wont stop me ill just look good doing it lol

Even the little touches with the stickers that neither me or Ted ask for but Rick has done off his own back for us - even after my winging and bitching i feel a right w*anker

Thanks for everything Rick, and GD guys, i have a dream car arriving in less than 10 days!! I really cant wait!!!!

Once again Rick i am sorry, i will be recommending you to everyone and i cannot rate you and GD highly enough.

Thank you

No worries. The Cresta looks 100 times better with the grille. You have 10Js all around on 245/40 Direzza DZ101s and surprisingly enough they cleared up front and don't hit at full lock in either direction.

If you want to lower it anymore than it is now you're going to want to stretch 225s up front. The rears sit nicely but if you want the uber-flushness all you need to do is throw on the 5mm spacers I stuck in the boot.

It's a damn fast car that's for sure. Ted isn't going to be able to keep up in the straights unless he upgrades the turbo, airflow, injectors and computer.

His S13 still had a stock drivers seat which was unacceptable so we yanked it and installed a semi-bucket we had in stock. The original is in the boot if he doesn't like it.

The Cresta has traction control and you can only turn it off after the car is started. When you cut the ignition it turns it back on automatically so every time you want to get sideways you're going to have to remember to hit that button.

I think you can disable it by removing the ABS sensors, as I think they use the same circuit, just guessing thats the reason mums are cable tied up in the arches!

Nice car Ash, but not really a project or build, you can guarantee that if you get a car from GD its pretty damn sorted already and then its just a bit of fettling to get it how you personally want it
