Thumbs up pics of my cym

Well I figured I should share what ive been working on for the past 6 months...
Bought the car last august and it needed a ton of work...for starters heres what sucked

Boost/Vacuum leak (hose job was done half ***, some new and some old)
5th gear synchro was shot
motor had blown coolant seals
tons of neglect...but no rust


Heres what I put in it
Rotory Performance large street port with 3mm seals
Full non Seq
Ported Wastegate
DP
MP
Greddy PE Cat Back
Removed all emissions
Removed AC
Removed ABS
Relocated Battery
Ducting system for FMIC and Radiator
Some Alum AST
Gotham Racing Catch Can
4x850cc injectors
Apexi Intakes
Apexi FMIC
Apexi PowerFC w/Commander
Apexi AVC-R
Nippondenso Fuel Pump
ACT SS clutch/pp
SS Clutch line
Gotham Racing Short Shifter
Digital Water Temp Gauge
Autometer Boost Gauge
Some gay *** A Pilar gauge pod
Greddy Turbo timer (i use this for my timing my fans)
99 Spec front lip
Some kind of momo steering wheel
Some 17inch wheels (not lookers, I just needed something that I could stick a big brake kit under)

Next mods are a diff and tranny braces, then im getting it tuned (wanted to wait to have these since I figured 15psi would be worthless without them)

I cant wait to take this thing out to limerock for my first 2 hpdes (Nov 6th and Nov 8th)

I think the stock spoiler completes the CYM look, though. Very clean ride.

the side shots suck..i took 5 of them and this was the best one...this digi camera really blows...
also as an important note..the car just came off jack stands so its sitting high...
my friend had these 17s on his MB rx7...he sold them to me, got 18s and eibach springs and his car had a very EVIL stance

thanks for all the positive comments
