It's been awhile since this was brought up but this is Cruser's car that got stolen from a forum member.

My brother bought it and is finally done putting it all together. We need to get it dyno tuned again and it will be back on the road kicking some serious ***. It had 461rwhp when it was last tuned. With a much bigger FMIC it should put out more, not much though.

 

I'm glad to hear that it had a happy ending. I didn't read the whole post. Do you know what eventually happened to that f**cking thief?
If that ever happened to me, and I caught him? That guy would be headed to the trama center before the county jail. Either that or the morgue.

 

Nice fd sitting in the garage.

 

Congrats on the thief recovery and what FMIC and turbos are you running to put down 450+rwhp? Thanks

 

That was what I was fixin to say, they must live on FD 737 Street or something.

 

looks nice!!

just outta curiosity....can i get the VIN number? :P:

 

I remember reading about that story. Glad to see the car is in great shape now.

 

Plead guilty. 240 something hours of community service. Slap on the wrist pretty much.


BTW the car looks pretty sweet! I'm sure Ryan will be happy to see it like that. Maybe we should arange a meeting with his Viper See what that 460 rwhp can do!!

 

Talk about a slap on the wrist? Isn't stealing a car grand theft?????

 

I think the actual charges were for posession of stolen property, but the arresting officer told me it is essetially the same as grand theft auto, in terms of punishment.

Regardless, he plead guilty to a felony and got community service.

 

You guys able to get those spark plugs out?

 

wow, sweet deep dish rims in the rear

 

more pics!

 

I agree 100%. I am very impressed how the car turned out. It now has the looks to match the performance. We have already planned to meet up. I secretly hope my old car beats my new one. It will definately be interesting. Good job guys!

 

Rims looks good, what is the tire size and rims offest you are using. Great match

 

you got a viper now ?? :o

 

Yeah, bought one last week. It is in the process of being shipped over from Maryland right now. It is 97 blue/white stripe GTS.

I actually wanted to keep this hidden from this board for obvious reasons, but Brad let the cat out of the bag. I can assure everyone this car will be stored in a much more secure place than my FD ever was. I have also moved since my last car was stolen, so I don't think anyone knows where I live now. It sucks when you can't trust your own so called friends.

 

congrats! that has pistons. nobody here wants to steal that

 

 

that should be an interesting transition. no TQ to TQ LOL

 

blah

 

That's one sweet FD.
If it shows up on blocks I had nothing to do with it.

 

That was the one thing I always missed with the FD. From an initial dig the car felt slow until the turbo spooled up, then look out. I will miss the sounds of the turbo, though. Nothing like hearing a turbo spool up and feeling yourself getting pushed back into your seat harder and harder the louder the turbo screams. I do think I will enjoy getting back to the rumble of a piston engine, never could stand the sound of a rotary.

 

its not that bad when you wear a full helmet... its much more tolerable

 

No it wasn't that bad, but I want my idle to instill fear into every person I come across, not instill confusion. I remember one redneck asked me once if my exhaust was supposed to sound like that. ****** dumbass.
