Paul (The other guy here at nzperf) has finally gotten the big engine running in his S4 RX7, and we now have a wicked rolling advertisement :D

Won't say power figures yet, suffice to say its got PLENTY enough to get a single digit pass in its current state. Running a 20B with a garrett GT42R turbo on the side of it.

Mainly putting this post up cause the video of the last power run is so damn cool :lol:

Enjoy :twisted:

Does it even have rear wheels or are they tucked away towards the middle of the car?
