Holy hell, that is the first one I've ever seen and I didn't know that Panspeed had a cluster back in the day! That's super nice! If I ever came across one I would be all over it!

Managed to snag up some rare emblems and a couple stickers from Ken Suzuki at CarShopGlow. You would think that when you buy body parts from a shop in Japan that they would throw a decal in there but nope, Panspeed was being a bunch of Jews with the decals. It wasn't until my last item I ordered from them, the hood, did they decide to finally throw a small decal in there Anyways I was lucky enough to have my brother, who use to be stationed in Japan, snag me up the big Panspeed decal a long time ago. I was initially just going to slap it on the toolbox but ended up saving it. I guess I can put it somewhere on the car when it's all done.

yo! I follow you on instagram. Cool to see more details here! Let me know if you decide to sell your 99spec front bumper when you are done with your panspeed install

How did you fit your fronts wheels? Tire size? I assume a roll as well? I just got 18x9.5 +22 all around setup as well and a bit nervous on how the fronts will fit.

I actually post more on here than I do on Instagram in terms of my build. The reason being that my wife doesn't want me spending money on car parts. She has an Instagram and if I post pictures of new parts and she see's it then I'm a dead man. At least here she won't be able to know about it Anyways, I'm still unsure if I want to sell the 99 spec bumper. And as far as the wheels, your sizes will fit with rolled rears and then rolled fronts with a slight pull. Just don't make the same mistake as me and get a tire with a 40 sidewall. Get a 35 or smaller for your sidewall and you will be fine in the front.

Everything gets sent to a friends house and all parts sit in storage until they're ready for install

Very nice dude!

I'm suprised how amazing those panspeed skirts are....extending so far under the body. Can't say I've seen any other company make sides like that. And leaving openings for the jack...very classy of them.

I was not expecting the skirts to be that way either, I'm curious to find out how much they cover underneath when I get around to installing them.

Update 03/05/2016

Its been a little slow for me to do anything since Im currently in the process of trying to legitimately pass a CA emissions test to renew the registration on my car. Ive slapped all the stock parts back on it except for the precat and for some reason Im still failing. Ive been trying to dig up as much research as to what I can do to help my car pass such as checking the air pump functionality, emptying the little "fuel canister" underneath the throttle body elbow etc. So to eliminate my frustrations I've started the paperwork to get the car registered back home in Ohio so I don't have to deal with this BS test every other year.

As far as a parts update I received a couple goodies in the mail earlier this week, and yes I bit the bullet and got the RE shifter. I couldn't resist.



I am in live with the FEED shift **** and it makes my interior look a touch better compared to that POS Carbing shift ****.



A couple days after the shifter and shift **** showed up I decided to sell my Gramlights wheels to a local buddy who wanted to use them on his RX8 as his track setup.



After the wheels were sold I managed to find these bad boys a couple days later for sale on here! I got a killer doeal on them too!
