At first glance your car looks incredible, but I'm kind of like the others. I'm not sure if I like the lights. They are definitely different, but I could see my self getting tired of them. Plus My buddy converted his MR2 with two round lights and the visibility was terrible. I'm not a fan of the rip out everything and put a gauge in it look. But that's just me. I like to keep the interior as stock as possible. The wheels are extremely cool looking, and I like the way you painted the lip...it kind of ties in the wheels. I don't know who painted the from click but it looks like they left some trash in it around your lights. I'd be complaining about that. Enigine bay looks very semetric. I like the paint/powder coating. Everyone polishes which looks great also, but it's nice to see others trying new things. Over all I think it's a very nice looking FD. Just don't put a Supra, or F1 wing on it.

wheres the intake system? is it in there? i couldnt spot it.

the engine looks very sweet, lots and lots of empty space. the car looks very cool from far away, but i am not too sure about the lights from up close. regarding the dim-lights or the second set of lights: why are there holes in their place? have you not put the lights yet, or are you using the holes as a cavity to suck in fresh air?

Rest assured there will be no Supra, or F1 wing anywhere near this car. Visibility with the PIAA lights, awesome, brighter than I expected.

Your car looks great!!! One question. Since I am soo used to scraping the hell outta my 99 spec lip I have been real touchy about stuff that hangs down up there in front. I noticed in some of those pictures that your intercooler is as low as the bumper. Have you had any issues with scrapeage? Is it higher than it looks? Maybe it's nothing or maybe it is too early to tell (since the project is not done), but I was just curious.

I like the relocation of the battery, definately different! Overall I like your car a lot but personally there are some things I would have left off. To each his own though.

Shaun,
Great looking car. Glad to see you finally got it done. Did the other Sean (Cocher) finally sell his 93 black base? I really wanted to buy that but he didnt want to sell it and never got back to me, never sent me pictures, nor did he fax the bank report or anything. I was kind of disapointed.

I can't believe no one has asked this already, so I'll bite. What is the tank in the back in pic 9 for?
