Farkel - the polished finish was the only ones I can get my hands on...imo, it turned out great!

dradon03 - i guess it depends on what type of tires you on but either way, unless the fd float on air, it'll never be comfortable...at least not mine.

Mike K - Yes, those are the APR mirror. It bolts right on, no bodywork needed. My engine looks crappy...it's got the bnr turbos, greddy intake, gredd smic, power fc. dynoed at 340whp with 12psi. It can probably make more power if i up the boost but that may be too much hp for me to handle right now.

I have rolled 18's on stock suspension with springs
18's on shocks and springs
17's on shocks and springs
17's on coilovers and I can tell you what I have now is the most comfortable of any I have tried.

needs a motor, interior refurbish, window tint and wheels to start.
I have designed and am starting production on the billet surround and boots like I have on it now. The one in the pic is the prototype. What do you think?

If you want to sell that it should fit the original contour of the shifter boot not just a generic TT-esque "style" peice.

Thanks, but,... unable. The contour of the original spot is very complex for a CNC machined part. Cost would be prohibitive unless it was done in plastic.
I understand not everyone will like it, but I'm betting there are plenty that will. The first thing that stuck out to me in the FD was how bland and 90's the interior is....Also an opinion of course

I am almost ashamed to tell you but I am doing 2:17ish full track...my friend drove my car and it should easily be under 2:10. I usually run streets of willow since it's closer and I do around 1:29 there, full track cw with bowl.

Wow, look at those little bars of amber LEDs in the front bumper! I am amazed at the attention to detail.
