At this time, I am done modifying my car probably. I may do a few small cosmetic things, or adjustable coilovers. I'm not sure. I only have 17k miles on it, so my wife is making me wait till I go thru the warranty before I supercharge or turbo it. As soon as I figure out how to post pictures I will. Everything with the exception of mounting and balancing the tires has been done by myself and my family. Better built than bought IMO.


Thanks for reading.

do you track this or is it a hard parker?

[FloridaBRZ]

I was planning on tracking it. I was diagnosed with cancer a year ago. I am in remission now and plan on tracking it as soon as season is over for me. I am an executive chef at a country club in south Florida, so there is no time for anything at the moment. But I am definitely excited about getting to a track.

[FloridaBRZ]

HP to dollar. What is a better buy? Working on my wife for a turbo or supercharger.

Hey, how does the exhaust sound like with exhaust? Is it loud?

No... Its actually really nice. ZERO drone, no popping... its pretty sexy in my opinion.


As far as pictures, all I have is an Iphone 6 and a Surface tablet. I don't do a lot of forum pictures, so if someone could tell me how to post them, I would be happy to.


Thanks,
Tim

in for pics. post em up!

[brokedrifter]

Host your photos on a site like imgur, phtobucket, something like that. Then use the bb image code to paste into here. Should be the code that has img in front and at the end of it.

[FloridaBRZ]

okay. I will post photos tomorrow. I can assure you they wont be the best, but I will try and get some. Any particular shots or angles anyone wants? Im pretty flush on wheels/tires/fenders. I have about 2mm of poke on the front, but that's cuz I didn't run a 245 on the front instead of a 255. Was hoping to be able to rotate my tires. Not really noticeable, but I notice it. Lol.

Whoops just don't know what I was thinking but, what I meant was headers and exhaust combo lol.

Yeah, same opinion. I installed my headers first, and noticed a slight difference in sound. Then 3 weeks later did the exhaust. Still a very nice sounding exhaust. Its very deep. I actually set off a few car alarms in a parking garage at the mall. It was funny.

Just try to get some good lighting in a bright area with no direct sun or hard reflections on the car in the lens. Don't need to be a pro, but a cheap cell phone photo at midnight under a dim street light doesn't cut it. lol

I put pictures up finally.
