i love the interior change. i love that muffler as well. do you have a website where i can get more info on the muffler?
also, why did you build boxes for your 6x9 speakers? im hoping to finish installing mine this weekend. i trimmed the rear metal a little and a buddy and i are making spacers and cutting the interior panels tomorrow. should work/look good.

Terrified.
It looks like you've been spending a lot of time on the car. Are you going to be keeping the top mount intercooler, or just go with a front mount?
Its definitely a hot car, and though the color isn't something I would have chosen myself, it is a good color as well. Looks, from the pictures, to be a well done car with a bit of work left on the interior (with the wires out and about, along with the emergency brake lever missing.)

Dump tips on rotors are mandatory BTW.

Could you possibly post up some pics of your seat mounts for the FD seats? I need a good iea on how to bracket my FD seats into my FC. I have GSL-SE seats in my FC right now, yeah i know silly, but they're direct bolt-in between FB and FC, therefore, however you mounted the seats will also work for me.
