I ran into a coulpe of issues but I got it comlete in about 4-5 days at most. Now the car is running great. Only thing is the idle is a little high, but I have checked, checked, and re-checked all the vaccum lines, and the intake doesn't have a leak. It idles at about 900rpm's right now. It still runs great so I'm not worried right now. I love the way it handles so much. I can't wait to get some good parts in there.

Oh and the blk S4 back there is my sister's. This is a rotary home

No, even though the wheel is close, I did not drop in the dirt, I did not spin out, I held it real close and connected it with what you see in the following pic....in case you were wondering lol :P

sup adrift, i havent heard from you in a while. i guess those pictures answer why. HAH. anyways how does an auto convered to manual fc feel? reason i ask is because i want to get a beater fc and fix it up for drifting and the only nice one around are the autos. i feel really guilty swinging my fc with 74 oringinal miles around.

nice drifting too you lucky bastard, and you know you didnt connect that drift!

there are decent deals I see going on that aren't too bad, but I'm sure it's about the same as so-cali. I swear I just got back from the east coast and I looked around over there and there are hardly any FC's in NY or in DC I was so sad And I might go live out there in a few years. I guess I'll have to start an FC movement or something lol

Update 9-30-06

Well it's been awhile since I've updated. as of now I finally bought some 17's for the car. They are 17x8's I think the offset is around +35. I forgot the name of the rims the guy didnt know. they are some old 3 piece japanese rims, got em for $300. My friend thinks the rims are called DP something....anyone heard of em? Well anyways. I got the rims to put on, I now have headers, and intake for the car. Next is tires and coilovers

Update Exterior

Here's how the car sits right now. I would like to get more done but school is keeping me busy.



Stretched the fenders to accomodate the new rims and the coilovers that I will be geting shortly.

It's all good man it's your car.....why not have fun with it right? and the stickers for the ladies lol. Drift on mayn!


RXsevenT2: The how to on to stretch the fenders. Get the fender roller, my friend had one, and a heat gun. Use the heat gun to heat up the paint so it doesn't crack and work the fender roller back and forth until you get it how you want it. With the actual roller its super easy to do.
