This car is quite well set up. Forgot to mention some of the modifications:

Cushion button clutch rated to 350kW
New radiator, slim fans, good clearance to front turbo
Big intercooler 700x90x300
70mm, larger throttlebody
410lph walbro fuel pump
Custom twin feed fuel rail (E85 compatible lines)
750cc. ID Injectors
Braided oil and water lines
Custom air box
Coil on plug COP with Denso coil packs
Custom ceramic coated exhaust manifolds
2.5" intercooler to 3" dump /exhaust piping
Painted brembo 8 calipers with slotted rotors
Rear viscous LSD
Flashed Rom to suit bigger injectors and prepare for these larger turbos

This clutch is quite nice, easier than the HD Extreme clutch on my last Galant

These are the twin ball bearing turbos. S13/S14 are different and only some s15 had these better turbos but yeah, not too hard to find also since Garrett sell them as the GT2560R.

QLD registration now, still 'for sale'. Running very well - 228kW ATW. Upgraded the wastegates so re-tune will bring more power - maybe 240ish? Maybe more.

Sorry to take so long for a reply. Im 12k down When i finish what im doing. Just waiting for the funds to clear on the last bit. I hit a wall with the diff with money and the weather but just waiting to get my diff bushes put in then a few hours later will be running SAYC. Already half paid for a new transfer that i will be recoing wilth helical. Parts are so expensive its not hard to spend up. A lot was just getting it right though. New balancer and belts and stuff like that. Probably be 11k in by a fortnight not counting 2 blown diffs. They were cheap. The new one was $1800. Rego $1300. Transfer and LSD $800, Balancer $260, Thermostat $60 plus seals and stuff like that. I also got the faults cleared and got AYC working. Still on stands ATM but diff should be in hopefully this week.
