I'm from salt lake. so we're like neighbors. Have you thought about a carbon fiber hood for that puppy. What's that, like 30 pounds lighter or something ( the hood) maybe you'd cut a little more time off of yer 1/4 mile. You could always paint it white if you want to stay sleeper. But it doesn't look sleeper to me, it screams " Performance and smooth looks are more important than a wacky body kit and big spoiler!"

Well I've got about $11,000 into it (not including the $10,000 I payed for the car) but thats for EVERYTHING!!! Yes it is super fun to drive! This car hauls a$$!!!! I've thought about a carbon hood but that money could go towards my engine build so I'll scrap that idea. I would give you a ride if you were ever in town. I come down to SLC all the time in the summer to ride parks so maybe we could meet up then. Thanks for all the comments on the car!

These seats are awesome!! I need to get another one but they're kinda $$$$!! My girlfriend likes them so much she offered to pay for half!! She's a keeper! Thanks for the comments on the car! I was currious on how everyone would like it or not like it.....

If anyone is interested in how to make a back seat delete like mine, I wrote up a nice how too for techer05. I can pm it to you if you want it, or if I get enough interest, I'll post it as a how too.

Not really....I'm friends with my tattoo artist. Most of the work was done in trade. He has an old lowrider that he's fixing up so I've been doing a bunch of the work on it in trade for tatoo's.

Terrible1 I'd love for you to make a quick write-up of that backseat delete kit, because I'm starting mine in about a month when school finally lets out for summer

Your car is awesome, and has sold me that I need to upgrade my SVT suspension for the Eibach kit and go for flat black Rotas

That should clean it up a bit!

i wouldnt rotate it u will change the A/F and could make the car run lean/rich or not drive good at all. anytime umove the MAF u change A/F if u dont want a retune i would keep it where it is

Your car is exactly the same as mine from the front minus the black rims. Got
SVT Euros. I told my wife I put my car up on FJ. She saw your car and said nice job "Honey".

Nice car Dude.

Thanks

I really want to do something different with the look. I was thinking SVT or Euro-spec bumpers with either SVT or RS sideskirts..... or maybe even a lip kit of some sort?......... what do you all think?? Any pics of the above on a white car????

**pitchblack23** · 05-03-2006, 12:29 AM

Is that a Recaro Speed seat? I'm jealous. Nice car.

Yup it sure is! It's an awesome seat, just kinda $$$$

**2focusd** · 05-03-2006, 05:35 PM

I personally think it'd look amazing with SVT bumpers, and I've already seen what white looks like on Euro bumpers in sanzx360, incredibly hot

So either way is gonna look great
