Well paint is done, its BB by the way. Paint looks funny - cell phone pic and it wasn't finished or wet sanded/buffed. Just waiting for someone to go pick it up for me.

^Um, I believe mine was finished FIRST, and I do believe those are also my old wheels...copycat. LOL

Here are some pics (I already sent them to you on fb too btw)






And our two together...I guess they're not EXACTLY alike, lol. Either way, your paint is MUCH better than mine haha.

No problem Simon! It drives like a car too haha. I had a hard time getting my boot between the tranny tunnel and brake pedal to get it on the gas pedal, these new ones are too wide LOL. The clutch wasn't near as bad as I thought it would be though, I almost like it better than mine.

Yes Dave, the paint is awesome! WAY better than mine haha. I might drop my car off there now haha.

Ordered some IRP engine mounts today with 3/8" shaved off to make up for the oil pan brace, etc. Maybe my strut bar will finally fit! Still need to finish up the methanol system- if anyone is selling any of their FJO stuff let me know!

edit: I should specify on the FJO thing - need the wiring for the controller, a meth compliant FPR and lines...

Looking good. Question about the Ganador mirrors. Do they cover the holes in the door panel for the stock mirrors?

Well I'm about 80 miles into the engine break-in. Realize now that I desperately need a new Differential and possibly new R&P and seals... Put up a wanted to buy so let me know what you have.


Couple Pics from today before I head out the Colorado Springs Meet.

What's power and response like? My son is thinking about doing a twin gt30r, or twin efr 7064 20B when he gets back from Afghanistan. It would definitely be interesting to see what the power band, spool, and throttle response is like on this bad boy.
