Thanks guys...ya I want to lower it a bit by using koni yellows. Then I want a painted spoon replica spoiler and that outta complete the "look".

edit: Actually, if I could do everything I wanted I would get it painted Caribbean Blue from the Infiniti G35's. Let's see some feedback here guys!!

I like how green your yard is. I wish mine was like that.

Texas heat mixed in with water restrictions > My lawn.

Oh, the car is clean and simple, as someone above me has pointed out.

Nice EK, what wheels are those? The lip looks like it fits pretty well to me.

Rofl ya it is, I just put it on yesterday and that's why I took the pics really. I struggled with that thing haha.

The wheels are the V304's from this thread.

I want to keep this car fairly simple and don't want a lot of downtime when modding the engine. You guys think a 92-95 Greddy sohc turbo kit is my answer for ~$1500? I was gonna turbo a B16, but ended up selling it because it would've cost me over two grand just to get it in the car. Too much money to put into this car to still not have anywhere near the power I want. I'll only want a blow-off valve and intercooler for the kit eventually...what do you think? Thanks

Of course. Ya it sucks I sold it but money pretty much dictated that decision. I didn't want to put that much money into the engine and I didn't have enough anyway lol. I could see a b-series build in my future, but the turbo d should be good for now. There was also going to be a lot more work than normal for that build since it wasn't an entire swap.
