What is then? i thought it was all to do with ratios? I know this is a bad example but when i have playing GT3 and have needed a higer top speed i have messed around with the ratio in 5th or 6th to get more.

Top car but with some dodgy features, apart from the rear spoiler. I'be never been a fan of 2 door conversions on 4 door cars. The arches look alright though.
The sellers idea of J style front and rear bumpers is pure boy racer curse word! J influence? Where's that then other than the new stud pattern? It's a british car with a larger capacity version of it's rover V8 fitted. Seller sounds a bit of a nob but the car has potential.
