Default AP1 content, looks like everyone elses.

Nothing special, 18x7.5/8.5 CE28's, 225/255 tires, Opak Titanium exhaust, ARC induction box (yes I know it is useless, no I don't want to change it I love it ), Espelir springs, Veilside V1 spoiler, OEM lip, and a few more parts on the way I am dying to get.

Criticism welcome on both the car and the photography. I use a D40 and have both PSE and Ifranview for editing, depending on the level required will depend on what program I use.

Future mods are going to be coilovers, not sure which brand, still researching because I LOVE the way the car feels now and I don't want to hurt the performance by installing cheap parts. A Cusco #1 hardparker 4 point roll bar lol, ARC elbow, and a few other ARC bling parts.

I know most of these mods do little to nothing for performance but I have spent a long time building cars for performance and this time around I am just putting something nice together that I will enjoy with parts that make me smile .

Insurance is cheap if you have a clean record man. Try Geico.

And I am about to be moving back towards your area, most likely Tyler. I grew up in Longview before moving to NC 12 years ago.

Yeah man, the plastic sucks ***. I am going to get an OEM glass top, I don't want a hard top for some reason even though I don't ever drop the soft top. I just like the look better for some reason.

I will probably be moved back down by the end of June or early July. All depends on timing with work and everything.

I have a cusco roll bar on the way, then looking into a nice set of coilovers, the rest of my intake, a few things to the interior.........

I don't know, it changes as the days go by. I have an idea how I want it to end up, I am just not 100% positive how I am getting it there.

It's not that clean

The front part of the fenders and the bumper have there share of tiny nicks on them from road debris, I just wax the hell out of it hoping for the best lol.

Thanks man.


BTW, by you screen name I think you would be the guy to ask, are there decent HPDE events in TX? They are hard to get to here in NC because you have to go to VIR or Ga from what I understand. I don't know, I have been a drag racer as long as I could walk and reach a gas pedal.

Thanks guys. It's a shame I am leaving it locked up again for 3 or 4 weeks while I take off to go work. Oh well, I will have fresh parts when I return.
