Wifey wants a new house, which the only good thing about that is potential for land...which means I can get a shop/garage built away from the house. We'll see how it all turns out with the bank....
Dammit! You get a shop/garage/lift right when I leave. Just be happy the wifey is letting you build a garage.

Simon, it was great meeting you and all the guys this weekend. Thanks for the kind words on the car, you need to see it in the sun, its literally night and day. I will be in town in a month for NOPI/HIN, we should get the whole group together.


Anyways, here are some pictures from the remix event.







The car is coming along nicely, I really like how the cf feed bumper covers offset the front as I felt the front portion of the car was lacking some sort of cf touch to match the rest of the car. Need to do some adjusting on the lights and light covers. I want to drop the car another .5 or .75" at least, to achieve this I am going to take my 255/35 front tire and run a 255/30 which reduces the wheel diameter from 26" to 25". This then should allow me to drop the front another .5" without moving the fender any close to the tire. Also entertaining the idea of moving the 10.5" rear wheel to the front and getting a 11.5" for the rear for 4" front lip and 5" rear lip. Interior and engine bay are a mess and are next on my list but dropped about $1000 in Miami this weekend so need to put some money together.

I was going to paint my FD with Ferrari red, but after visiting the local Miami Ferreri dealer I noticed the Corsa Rosso is actually orange/red. I looked at all of the high end cars at the dealership (Aston Martin, Porsche, Viper, etc and ended up liking the Audi R8 Red. Its called Brilliant red and I painted my car with that. Looks great!

So as some of you know I recently moved to Manhattan, the fd is back in fl, so the project is on hold until I can find a place to store it here in NYC. As it sits now

Wow just went through all 27 pages and love how it turned out! My favorite part is seeing how many times you changed your mind with wheels and more, but I definitely like the work wheels and love how flush your car sits. I am inspired.

Thanks! I have a bit of ADD and whenever I decide on something I change my mind after finishing it. I have some more plans for this and possibly an all satin black 20b fd in the upcoming year or two.

Thanks! If I ever move to Cali, we have to do a photoshoot.

Some photos from this weekend. Coilovers are blown and need to be replaced, windows are a complete mess and the interior needs to be worked. After everything is tidied up, it will be for sale and off to a Viper GTS I go. The FEED ti 94 exhaust has a nice tint to it now after some serious runs the past few days.
