Looks good. I'm a fan of white 5th gens since I have one and I too have the RS skirts.

what exhaust manifold are you using? and how do you like the 18g on your Z6? car looks good. seems like it could use a rear lip or something, though. can't wait to see your times!

not to sure what kinda manifold that is.. the 18g is fine on the car.. it has quite a bit of lag.. at about 4k it's at about 5lbs.. and at 5k it's at full boost of 9lbs.. so i mean.. it's not bad.. if i can pull on a car that runs 13.5 then i think with my hx rims and falken azenis tires and traction bar i can pull mid 13's.. i'll see friday though.. err.. tomarrow.. yea.. friday haha.. i dont have a rear lip on it for a reason.. it looks gay.. i like the jdm style with just the sides and front looks tight keep the comments coming..

Nice! It looks great either way, but I like the stock sides a lot better. The turbo setup looks great, and so does the new front lip.

for visual attraction I like the old set up truthfully if you only add like the carbon fiber hood and the lip that would look badass. Oh yeah the important part the motor, its %100 better and I think you would agree.

Yea I kinda like the old setup with the new lip and hood added...something about the rims looks kinda odd but doesn't look bad...

Motor is TIGHT

Overall

so you know who the old owner was?? haha.. i met him when i was at the track also.. he told me that this thing had a b20/vtec in it.. bought it as a shell for 1800 bones and bought the z6 swap for 300.. so you know.. 2100 car.. and parts and everything that i needed for it only came to about 2500 or so.. so you know.. can't beat that..
