As far as warp speed driving at night, I do agree that the traffic can be a reason, but in my area we have way too many nocturnal animals that make it very interesting at high speed; possum, raccoons, deer and elk. If you've never seen an elk on the road in front of you while doing triple digits then I can assure you it will give you a gray hair or two, as well as ruining a pair of briefs (or boxers if you go that way).

ELK you say? OMG...that would definitely make me stain my briefs lol. We only have a deer problem, and that's in certain areas (not so much on the highway... more on those single lane back routes, cuz they're built straight thru the forest haha). Wow. I would imagine hitting an Elk at any speed would totally trash your car...much worse than a deer. Those things are HUGE (from the pics I've seen).
Anyways...it's definitely good to hear from ya. Congrats on finishing up the car. Hope it didn't give ya too much trouble!

PS...I feel for you for the "Honey-do" list...cuz in most cases, that list is on-going and open-ended

I've actually been 165 ONCE (on the way back from Rotary Revolution), and it was at night, so my stock pop-ups were up...and they stayed on...lol (thank God)

damn, that looks badass...get some night shots of that. Maybe you can do a write up on that for me? I really could use a better lighting system and that is exactly what I'm looking for. I'd probably go with hella HID lights or Phillips though. Keep the pictures comin

How did you modify the motor?

They still operate up and down normally, with the motor mod I did.

It says in 1234rotror's profile that the lights are "infiniti HID's". I guess you could go through their model line and figure out which one has elipse-shaped headlights.
