Here's the new TII:



By mid summer I will be 100% done with the mods I want.

Plans:
Remote entry and alarm
New fenders and front bumper
Black Interior
S5 Tails
Painting the car white
TII Wing, cuz duckbills suck ********
350z wheels
downpipe
Already have a Trust catback I need to install
HKS intake
High flow cat
REAL HID's, not the ghey HID in an H4 housing
Fix all wiring crap
Rtek 1.7
Get rid of the RE Amemiya coilovers and put on Strut spring combo

Gonna keep the car daily driveable. All emissions will remain, stockish boost levels, etc..and it's all gonna be done on a SUPER budget. Gonna wait til I find dirty cheap prices for ****.

I got it for 1600.
It made it to hawthorne from palmdale without any problems at all.
The guy had put the exhaust system without any gaskets os it was loud and leaking like crazy, but I fixed it.
I hope it's worth the 1600. Lmfao.
If not, oh well. It's like your child you can never call it ugly or a waste of time and money.

^ Yeah Jaime!! I'm so excited for you! When its done I'm going to have to come over and check that thing out in person. You've got the build of the century.


My car has changed a lot since I last posted pics. I was having oil temp issues, so I went with dual oil coolers in the brake ducts, which helped a lot, but still not enough. The s4 brake duct openings were too small, so I picked up this Shine Auto half bumper. (I'm an s4 pride guy, so it had to be a half bumper, so choices were easy). To go with the front bumper, I had to pick up Shine Auto skirts too... then G35 mudguards to go with all of those. I changed my exhaust from a Corksport to a Racing Beat REV II so I don't have to deal with cops anymore. Then my stock vert wheels didn't go well with the kit, so I had to pick up these RPF1s. They were originally silver, but I had them powdercoated white. They're 17x9 +22 all around (so they're all concave). Tire sizes are not ideal, but they came with the wheels and they were basically brand new, so I'm going to live with them for now. Next tire set I'll change to better sizes... but for now they're 235/45/17 front, and 245/45/17 rear. Next tire set I'm going 245/40/17 front, 255/40/17 rear.





This last pic has the flash used to show the intercooler/oil coolers. Without flash, the intercooler and oil coolers are dark enough to not be seen easily

I'm not liking the front camber so I'm picking up Shine Auto Foresight replica front fenders on Monday.
