He's a good friend of mine, I drove it when it was just a stock exige, drove it when it had 400 whp on stock tires, now hes got 12 inch wide back and 10 inch on the front, no power steering dedicated track car... Drove it every step of the build, 400whp sucks on skinny stock tires...

Supposedly Aisin made this series of Porsche manual transmissions too!

This is the one with the LSD. I'm considering swapping my auto, but it's so darn expensive lol.
