Default wow she has come a long way...

so i have a tafetta white ej8 that was an automatic d16y8 that was bone stock...

heres what she has gone through:

B16A3 swap and a 5-speed conversion (now it is obd1)

Boosted at 7psi with a T3/T4 .50 Trim

here we go.

What she used to look like




The transplant












After the swap





Some exterior modifications









OMG seafoam!


Let the boosting begin





Pics of the interFAILURE!



As she sits now







And this is what added all the horsepower...LOL




All in all, I am VERY satisfied with my car...I love her so much!


let me know what you guys think

Nice, needs some different wheels and if you could find some OEM 99-00 tails would be nice too.

lol thanks, my friend has a sticker maker machine and he made it for me....and by the way, it's a complete LIE! theres no way in hell i could pull 30+ mpg, i put it there since i'm trying to go for the stock look....30+ mpg = it's stock, theres no way it can be fast *wink wink*

yeah, i'm on the hunt for some 99-00 tails, but i'm not about to pay a left ******** for a set. And as for rims go, i'm working up some money to get a set of 15" x 8" Sportmax 002's.
