New Pictures!

I gave my car a nice wash and decided to take pictures. Hope you like them.



I finally have my Nexus Gauges installed and working. I got the Boost/Vacuum, Water Temperature, and Oil Temperature gauges.

They're not chrome, I think the camera just made them look shiny.

well said fellow Canadian


I really like the gagues and the front clear turn signals. did you install blue LED's for trun signals by anychance? cause they could look very sexy if you got some not so hugly bright ones, but just enough to see them. but overall i really like it

The turn signals are just regularly colored lights.

I would get an aluminum AST or eliminate it. Also, a better intake system wouldn't hurt either but thats just my opinion. I believe the Greddy Airnix system would work with your V-mount set-up while allowing you to run all the factory intake hoses. If not, some ebay intake pipes and K&Ns would also do the job.

The paint really looks top notch though, I like the color choice did you add a hint of purple?

Agreed. That second Intake is very oddly placed. Otherwise car looks great for the most part. Color is AMAZING.

Yea, the car has a little bit of purple, but it only shows under certain light. The second intake was placed there because there was no more room for it in the front. Haha. And I had to remove the ABS cause it was leaking badly so that was the only spot for it.

sharp lookin fd...did you install those hood pins yourself? I worried about drilling through carbon..

What would be the downside to having your filter mounted in that position? I guess you would get some pretty hot air commin off your turbos though.

nice car. Getting 99 spec tails would complete the look. I personally don't care for the clear signals front/back... makes our FD's look cheap. Your choice though... other than that, the car and paint are top notch. Quality rims in your future?

Nice ride. Really digging the color. I myself like the clear reverse lights. They match the front stock turn signals. IMO if every FD was identical it would be kinda boring.

It would be getting some real hot air back there, if any air at all. Most air would get sucked up by the front intake before it even gets close to the rear one.
