Default Its good to be here, hello from Canada

Hello everyone after some suggestions on my first post here on a couple parts to buy I figured I should properly introduce myself instead of clogging up that thread.

My name is Harley, I'm from Canada and own a 2001 NB2 LS with the sport hard package no ABS, A/C and a 6speed. I bought it completely stock a couple years ago from the original owner with 120,000km (80,000) miles. So all the modification so far has been done by my father and myself and I'm quite proud of it. We've put a CSC roll bar in it, BC racing coilovers, Northern performance dual core aluminum radiator, enkei compes with 225 NT01, running on MS3 and even a M45 before we stored it for the winter last year. And many other little things. Oh did I mention it has never been winter driven? It's a shining example of a clean car I really love it.

So that brings my on to why I'm here! A close friend has offered to buy my M45 setup and that means il be able to go the turbo route like I always should have. The m45 was just too easy to put on plus it was cheap to buy so it was hard to say no. I've already been talking to Kraken and I'm ordering the turbo as soon as I hear back from him! I'm excited to share my journey with you guys!

Just a comparison of how I got it versus what it looks like now.

A photo I took after getting the paint corrected. Nice and wet looking.

Thank you! Im very excited to get it all, the quality looks exceptional. Im not sure if you've seen the recent video on his facebook where he draws on the manifold with a ballpoint pen, but wow its so smooth. Hats off to him.
