Thanks for the comments guys. car drives really really well and i havent even take the thing over 3 grand yet lol. not sure on wheels atm probably gonna keep it like this for a while until i pay the bank as i still owe like 3 grand or somthing. but it really does need to me dumped. i might do that in the next few months. just depends on how i go with money really.

Auto or manual ? Good pick up !

nah just the auto but is got a freshly recoed box. the shifts are really firm. manual would have been fun but im lazy lol

Nice ride bud. Regarding the auto, the reco box has nothing to do with shifts. That has to do with the tune

Shifts can be altered with internals you know mate

They can be, but ultimately line pressures etc which effect the shifts are adjusted via the tune, shift points etc are also only adjusted via the tune, why would someone use a reco box,then trick it up a little when you don't have too?
