The supply of kits are limited (all imports subject to real heavy duties) and the tuning skills are poor. So when I locked up EVO X as my target I have already decided to take the risk-free way, i.e. all bolt-ons!! Luckily I manage to get all the JDM kits from Tokyo directly through my network so there are not that way exepensive......

I need to be doing, what he is doing. I am stuck modding with Autozone and Home Depot products.

I was amazed to see your car realizing China is so exposed to the tuning world that a car modded like yours in Shanghai is totally unheard of. You must have good connections for those parts hookup. Must be quite a head turner driving around in Shanghai! Can't go wrong with JDM bolt-ons for reliability and trouble free maintenance. Is there any tunning shops in China that has dyno tuning?
Im also from HK

LOL I don't see how this is considered "Light-Tuned" but it's clean. Did you take some of those street pics near Fudan U?

more aggressive wheels and blacked out headlights is what I would have done different.
