not feeling those wheels or lip...but that lip..is that the real mugen? or another replica style? cuz the one i had for my DC didnt come up that far
I think that's the first bad thing you've said about my car :( I do like the wheels (mainly the tires I can use with them) and the lip so it's all good :)

As for the lip, I don't remember if it's a replica or the real deal, but it's the full bottom half lip and pretty hard to find. I think it's a replica cause it's fiberglass, but it's very sturdy fiberglass and made well so replica or not I'm happy with it. I tell everyone its a replica cause I really don't know and better safe then sorry.

Thanks. It's a Thermal R&D and made really for turbo, but whatever. I have 2.5" straight through exhaust all the way from the header to the muffler and that's got a 3" tip. It's going to be very loud!

man that header looks good!
I know. Yummy! lol

haha no hate...i got wheels on my truck that i dont really like but im leaving tehm on there cuz at the end of the day i'm riding on practically new 18" tires for $50:lol: not to mention its staggered. i like the lip cuz of uniqueness..thats teh first time ive seen it as a half bumper.

Big Update :) and Big Disappointment :(

I got the car all finished over the weekend. I go to start it and it doesn't start. It's getting spark, getting fuel, fuel injectors are firing, but it won't start :( I have a few ideas to try but won't get a chance to until next weekend. Hopefully it will FINALLY be running then.

For now, enjoy the pictures :)


Here's the rigging of my filter for non-P/S. I used a breather filter, drilled an extra hole and ran both tubes from the rack into it. This way crap doesn't get in there, but the rack is not sealed so I don't have to fight fluid when steering, and I still have the capability to re-lube the rack as needed:








Here's the thread repair:


















And here she is startng to go together....AGAIN:

Very niiiiice! lol dude it's looking sick. Normally I don't like black w/polished lip but your car rocks them pretty well. The engine build looks sick. Gotta post up that vid and maybe some dyno numbers after it's tuned!
