I thought I'd introduce myself as I am about to pick my 20vT next Sunday. I am not new to the forum or to the coupe as I did own one about 7 years ago. This was worked on by Barbz himself and was running a sweet 320ish.....
Between that time n now I have owned 3 E46 M3's one being a csl, a remapped T6 XC90 (don't ask why) a turbo charged V6 4motion, a very fun and very fast 428bhp BMW 135i !!! And currently a remapped X3 sd very torquey and surprises allot people.

Anyway I was looking at a another car that I could use every day, didn't cost much money and something that would put a smile on my face!

So it was time to source a coupe, I have been on here a few times and on the usual piston heads etc BUT I thought why not ask the man himself BARBZ! So even though he is in another country he was as always very helpful and put me in touch with a seller and I am now going to be picking it up a week from today and I can't wait!

I am counting the days as I type, I feel like a ill kid again and already thinking of what I need do to get it over the 400bhp mark...... There is no such thing as enough power!! Especially if you've ever sat in a 1380bhp GTR that surge of immense power is like a drug. Now I know I will not achieve that in the coupe but will see what magic Barbz can do..... So watch this space......

Thanks lads, one thing I don't like on the coupe are the standard rear lights SO I am on the lookout for the LED ones if someone could point me in the right direction that would be much appreciated.
