Always been a fan of your coupe man, saw it at wekfest and other events in SJ. Pics don't make justice on how clean this car actually is. Props

you should get an award or something. really. for not f*cking up an EM1.

so here is your "didn't f*ck up and EM1 award"

i see no cut shock towers and no 96-98 conversions. youve got good taste. ditch the bear sticker though. put it on your toolbox.

Thanks Nat and thanks everyone!

I'm trying to find pics from the earlier years 1999-2003. I know there's some from the SRO meets from back in the day. I have to find them.

I'll also include some engine/engine swap pics and dyno tuning pics later. Maybe more racing pics.

This car has been through hell and back, lol.

LOL I swear to go I knew at some point that those wouldn't be frowned upon like they were when I first hoined here. Funny how DCS stuff is now "old skool" in a way. I have lots of DC stuff (only thing still on is the rear upper and lower bars though).

haha, yea that's the only DC part on my car. Had a DC battery tie down, but exchanged that with a Skunk2 unit.

And my car has purple SRR LCA's. Do they even make those anymore?

It also has SkunkWORKS coilovers. Not Skunk2, skunkworks :p Try finding that BNIB :p
