Update on Ryan Castro's car

[kalib0y]

Hey guys, its been a while since I've seen my car so I decided to swing on over to Danzio to see how far my car is coming along. I finally took some pics because I wanted to get pics of the car while it was on the ground with the new wheels, DPE GT7 in Chrome Shadow finish with a Brushed aluminum lip (trying something different).

All there is left to do is the powdercoating of the piping, remount of my bumper (I will probably have to hack it up a but to get more flow to the FMIC), and dyno tuning.

enjoy the pics:

Lookin good as always! Any ballpark power figures?

[BeArs]

man that car... just makes me wanna only because it's not mine lol

I don't know much of the history of your car what kind of numbers are you putting down?

damn that car is a beauty

[PinoIX]

Wow... always have been a fan of your car... since it was the redish color! What are the measurements of those bad boy wheels??? Offset???

Nice set up. Not to sure about the dug out look of the side skirts. Think that would have to be something one would have to get use to looking at,..kind of takes away from the flowing lines of the car.

[Tvan]

Yea, I'm not necessarily diggin' the side skirts. Although I'd say the wheels, brakes, silver paint, and widebody make up for it.

Edit: and the huge ass intercooler

i love the look of a chopped up bumper with a huge FMIC sticking out...should look very good. Keep us updated

the paint and the rims are different, the rim's finish look exactly the same as the OEM m3 and m5 rims.

as for the "dug out "on the side skits, the dug out is carbon fiber, about 6.5 years ago my car was used as the demo car in the US for the Esquiss Rafale widebody. Being the first car in the US to have the kit, Esquiss wanted to make sure that it looked as they intended it to be. The carbon fiber inserts are not only on the sideskirts, but on the mirrors, front lip, rear bumper and wing. The Esquiss that you probably would see around no longer have the carbon fiber inserts because Esquiss stopped producing the it with the carbon fiber since it was becoming too expensive to produce.
