Pretty sure you need the mk60 DSC which I think is late 2002. Mine is December 02 MY.

On a closed road you couldn't get sideways, but it allows way more slip before DSC kicks in.

It also allows you to go balls out around say on a track or wet coner right up to that mechanical grip limit. You can also initiate a slide and it will do a good job of holding it and not letting it oversteer too much.

The MK60 is a productionisaed OEM version of the Bosch motorsport unit. certain version can be turned into a full blown motorsport ABS/Traction system. The Georg Plaza 1 series Judd car had this system with bespoke PC software to control the maps and telemetry from the unit. Its also a true stand-alone unit which can be used in other vehicles requiring signal only from source sensors and proxied signals from the DME.

Not a lot to update, but here are some 'just washed' images 63,000km later.

That looks good who did it for you and where did you source the material?

AFE intake. 

Haven't had a good chance to wring it out yet, but pretty happy with the sound, (i.e. purpose of install).

Best motoring decision of my life. The hype is real. No road car comes close for the money, (and even a lot more).

Did I miss the part where it went from SMG to manual?

But isn't SMG manual?

Really though, that intake look real nice. Bet it sounds glorious up the rpm range.

I actually really like SMG (with CSL tune) and wouldn’t hesitate to buy another one. 

Both have their charms. I’ve never gone back to SMG so maybe that would change my mind? 

SMG sucks is a classic internet meme.

Paint is 95% mint, and did want to do a full polish for 100% mint-ness, but have only had chance to clean and wax. I did repaint the CMP subframe reinforcement grey. Here are some pics...

Who installed the CMP reinforcement kit for you? Way to futureproof the rear end!

^ HELLBM installed the CMP kit (and plates).

HellBM has done all the work on the car in fact. 

Future plans... perhaps a 4.1 diff and seat upgrade?!?

(BTW that plate is tongue in cheek - I actually like SMG and would buy another in a heartbeat #SMGismanual)
