History
I bought the car in 2013 from a fellow on Rennlist who used it for DE days. It was setup for the track and the balance shafts and AC were fully deleted.
Since taking ownership, I've repaired a lot of the little things that need work, and continued modifying the car to suit my tastes and driving style.
