it's alright. the wheels are too big in my opinion. it would look* better lower. did you buy the car with these modifications already on it? the car looks really clean. it's got less than 100,000 miles on it. that's a plus.


*key word here look. it may not perform as well, but it would look better.

Yes I bought it modified. But b/c it was modified by a middle aged man who didn't run it hard or track it. It doesn't burn oil and is smooth as new. The wheels are ok for now but i'll change those this summer probably.

If its mechanical then if should have a oil line feeding into the back of the gauge, Yea leaks would be bad.

It was a cai but I pulled the extension off to avoid hydrolock and to have better throttle response. I just copied and pasted the mod list that the previous owner sent me. I need to change that. I really like the short shifter. It shifts very smooth, no rattles or anything. I definately recommend it
