I'm back...R53 number 2
Hey folks,
You guys helped me a ton back a few years ago when I accidentally acquired an R53 for $200, I resurrected the car and sold it quickly as I was a bit scared of what might break next. However the experience haunted me in a good way and I've casually looked for another R53 for years. Found one about 6 weeks ago and bought it and I've been doing a few things since. Just wanted to pop back in as I'll be here a bit and hoping to get a tune from Adrian and a few other things. Car is a 2-owner '06 S 6-speed with pretty much all options and all the good mods done by PO to get it a little beyond JCW level which is all I am interested in, had fast cars before and I'm over it. I just did supercharger oil change/water pump plus a radiator and working on the oil leaks. The car has 116k and runs great and looks about brand new, was very well loved. Anyhow thanks for being here, just wanted to pop in and say "I'm back", this time for a bit longer, I plan to keep this one for a while I hope if it doesn't break my heart too much.
