yea i think they would have to be made from scratch. i'm amazed ATI hasn't made a super damper for our cars. i know it's not really needed but i'm sure it would help somewhat. if they did then i'd only need the SuperNOW water pump pulley and i'd be set.

Yea thats part of the problem for the FC's, not to many parts are readily avalible here in the states and you really have to do some digging to find what you want or have it custom made. My cars a great example of lots of custom work.

SlideAlliance you might have two of the best looking FC's I've ever seen. White one above and black vert (if you still have that?) Definitely the best looking vert I've ever seen hands down. Like the wheels too, something different for an FC

[QUOTE=SlideAlliance;10683451]the number one thing that has always annoyed me is people talking **** about how long I have taken building the white car, the difference between actually driving it and building it as extensively as I am is basically the same amount of time that it takes people to build/drive/change/build again/drive/change/final build and enjoy but even so I have driven it plenty it just never was quite what I wanted so this run I went all out and made ******* sure it was ready, plus I built two other cars drove and sold them when I was continually building/changing/making the white car better. After I finish the tubs and bash bars white car is built how I want it outside of knuckles which I can't use until buy super negative 10" fronts which don't exist in wheels that I like apparently so I may have to see about buying extra barrels


I know with my car its taken me about a year and a half to get it were its at and I keep changing things on it as well. Of course Ive only had the car almost 2 years now and had a few big hicups along the way that have definately slowed me down. After I get the cage all finished up the only major thing left is paint and just little things. hopefully she'll be done by the end of the year and done to my satisfaction. Otherwise Ill take it back apart again.

I can't crucify my car with that horrible dmax crap upfront.. Ryan is the only dude who can make it look Rad. Even George went back to ventless.

they would be sick if DMAX would make a typeIII kit for our cars or if someone did a kouki 14 front, using the 14 fenders, but other than that it's hard to pull off...

30mm front fenders suck when you're trying to hang with cars in pro-ams having custom 1 off billet uprights/knuckle setups and 4x4 ride height....

i'm literally raised up 3" higher than i want to be, max front camber, and still limited to a 235 tire. i need to go to a 215 (which isnt bad, but i like the extra width of the 235 for aggressive flips) and then i could maybe not rub. these spindles are just too nuts... so much more left and i cant even utilize them fully yet because of rubbing.

we all need to hit up justin with money upfront to knock off his set of 45mm's. Justin if you see this hit me up. i have cash whenever. i need this now.

Viper GTS Red Metallic. i had the paint guy add extra flake, and a touch of pearl when he mixed it.

after it dried i went back in to get another quart to spray my mouldings and what not, and they cross referrenced the paint to a Honda Milano Red or something. i'll get the paint code.

the honda part number is cheaper but it's a slight bit darker.
