purchased back in 1999, this car has been my main project for the last 10 years and counting. stock, automatic, ran a 17.2 at 76 mph.

the auto died in 2002, swapped to a manual. ran nitrous for a summer. got tired of filling the bottle. so sold the kit and fabbed a turbo setup in 2003. been making the most of that since.

heres some mostly recent pics.

i've seen your sig and you on the "other" site. and always wondered about your project.
and i must say It's DOPE! I tip my hat to you also!

now get some slicks and with trap's like that I'm sure you would be well into the 11's

iv ran 11's with the car before on a smaller turbo on slicks. im in the process of building the bottom end. so, it will be at minimum two months before its back out on the street.

thanks.. i think? lol

witch wheels? i have two sets for the two cars.. 16x7 17 spoke, and 15x7 5 spoke. i routinely swap one set to the other car depending on... application..:naughty:

i actualy dont really care for the 16's. they are honda wheels anyway. possible sell/trade?
