soooo pretty. Imma finish my suspension mods and FI before i do any interior mods. Congrats on winning the best engine bay and people's choice for the 2nd time. I had a couple of parts ordered for the meet, but didnt come in time. Might have won best in show again.

Very nice. To sidetrack a bit, what kind of MPG are you getting with the SC installed? Just discovered that Vortech is going the CARB route so now I am considering it even more. lol

BlaineWasHere · 05-01-2013, 11:44 AM

I would buy the CARB kit just to have the CARB stickers but I would still use Perrin tuning or whatever, not the CARB tuning/parts.

How much is that wheel? I miss my old flat bottomed wheel.

I guess if you think a steering wheel is worth dying for...

Apparently some think a steering wheel is optional...

If I ever see someone doing that on the road I am going to brake check them and see if they are still going straight after a quick little panic stop. Fuckers!

BlaineWasHere · 05-01-2013, 12:00 PM

On another note...

Do any of you have the blue convex side mirrors? I'm 90% sure I'm gonna order them but I would just like to check them out in person if someone in the South Bay (or close) has them! TIA!

Funny that that's causing a shitstorm in the auto community right now, ever since that story about it on Jalopnik.

It's stupid, and it doesn't even make for a good picture. Just ruins the flow of the car with a steering wheel out the window.

Next up.. center consoles. I'm gonna hold my cupholders out the window, yeah that's right I don't need anything holding my fuckin soda.

ZC6BRZ · 05-01-2013, 12:20 PM

If you're baller you'd hold your brake pedal out the window.

BigFatFlip · 05-01-2013, 12:27 PM

Edit: ^Damn, beat me to it, lol

Oh yeah?... well...I'm gonna hold by brake pedal out the window!

PMok · 05-01-2013, 12:31 PM

For our next meet... We should buy a bunch of cheap toy steering wheels. Then drive by a cameraman and all hang our "wheels" out the window!

I think a true baller would hold their gas pedal out the window.. too much of a baller to worry about petty things like going places or being on time
