Time to update this:

So your going to use the dual mass flywheel and that metal shifter assembly.??

I was thinking about swapping out from the metal shifter assembly but I may not be able to due to the donor car being an 86 es...your thoughts?...I know there's the searching option, but let me know what you think...

looks awesome but you need smoked indicators now.

yea...I'm not sure I'm going smoked...still undecided


On another note, I picked up a Hartge replica rear lip....I assume replica because it was fiberglass



see the crack? :(





Decided to do something a bit different:




Paint will come when the car gets shot...later in the year :)

Wow, she's is beautiful :D

I normally don't like French lights, but the combo of fogs and highs makes it happen on your black vert.

Thanks guys!!!

For some time, I've been thinking about French fogs and highs and figure that I'd give it a shot to see how they look. I like the look and yes I realize that they may limit the light output, but the reality is with the HIDs in the ellipsoids I'm not exactly having lighting issues.

Details: Ebay fogs for $48 shipped, laminx knock off, and time

On to the pictures:

So your going to use the dual mass flywheel and that metal shifter assembly.??

Its a single mass flywheel from my understanding and that is the plan after I get it lightened. Metal shifter assembly?

this inspired me. As soon as I get $2000, I'm doing what you did.
