I have a video of the car launching at the drag strip if anyone is willing to host it. I need your email address to send it to you.

The car does have a coil over kit on it....but at the time of taking these quick pictures...we were getting ready for the Street Tuner Mayhem race. Otherwise....the car would be as low as possible. The FD will be hammered at Seven stock.

Looking good. Did you just take your time modding it over the 3 years? I did all my engine mods in about 2 months. It was a ton of work in that short span during the summer but I knew that I wasn't going to go back and add things later on so I decided to do it all at once while I was waiting on the new engine

Nice front, I had that on my first one. Not many people know about it, I think it looks better than the 99 spec

The last 7 months have been pulling the engine, and paint. The rest of the mods have been done when I could afford it. The gas cover was on the car when I bought it....however the fitment was not that great. It took quite a bit of work to fit.

I am hoping that once I get the graphics pinstripped it will make the blue brighten up. Not sure if I will have it slash striped or just pinstripped. As far as the turbo...its the Garrett GT35/40 from A-spec tuning. It's the same one No Cab is running. I picked it since it spools quickly. Currently I have it tuned by BDC in Texas at 431 hp at 17lbs. Now that I just spend another $800 on upgrading the fuel system...I should be able to tune to 25 lbs. I already have the 3 bar map set up.

Damn, a 1000 views in 3 days? I had to upgrade my photobucket account. I will post some finished pictures before we head to Seven Stock. And yes, it will be lowered for all you fender gap haters! Looks like I may have the graphics pinstripped on Thurs or Fri. I need to pick two colors. I am thinking Silver and Orange (Orange because its the opposite color on the color wheel). Any suggestions? Also kicking around Yellow or Green with the Silver. Not sure what will look best. What do you guys think?
