          Love the rear end. I have similar plans for mine's.

              Looks awesome. Makes me miss my e30 even more. That wheel/tire setup really fills up the wheelwells nicely. :up: Any noticable gains from advancing the cam timing?

                          Thanks fellas.

                          The calipers.....I might paint them when I upgrade to SS lines...

                          Jaimie....You know I am down for the p.shoot the minute ur car is done...

                          Bry, don't sell 'er..Money is not everything ;)

                          Bitburger; the cam timing make the car a lil bit more peppier as it screams to the redline. Its most noticeable around 4500rpm (to me)

                              Okay, I like the whale tail a lot more now. Car looks great! (way better than in the middle of a 13 hour trip on stock suspension with your entire life in the backseat and trunk ;))

                              Except the car belongs up here. I need my autox buddy back.
