Hey! Summer is going great, enjoying my car a lot. Putting in the manual boost controller was great..until it wasn't great for the clutch haha. Stock clutch is on its way out the door. I think my car is making a good deal of tq at its 7psi with the 2.5" exhaust and has fully exasperated the clutch. Slipping above 4th and chattering below. I am looking for a good Stage 1 or 2 solution to become my DD clutch solution.




Some lovely new photos of my ride!

Looking fantastic! The GS cover compliments the Avo and engine bay nicely.


Clutch: Seems the new Excedy stage 2 is getting good reviews and no noise and similar peddle feel to OEM. I know next spring (as too late now) when I boost I'll do a clutch first thing as well so that topics been on my research priority.

Thanks! The green on the brakes is pretty sweet. My friends keep telling me to really push the green accents, but I think the brakes are just the right amount of awesome for me (plus some green TRD stickers on the rear rim lips)

Haha yes..that exhaust... it was once lined up very well, but over time, due to my cities very poor roads, it has shifted. Had I noticed, I would have pushed it back into alignment for the show. Now I am left with an awesome perfect photo lol

First of all, thanks for the nice compliments, as always haha. And yes, I think I will be going with a Exedy clutch, stage 1 or 2. I have yet to pick one..probably should go to the higher capabilities of the stg 2 just in case. I got a quote for the work from my dealership, over $1,000 for the install. So... I am going to go a different route on that one and save myself at least $600. It certainly helps knowing people.

Front lip will be taken care of pretty soon. I am hoping to debut a new look next spring and it will incorporate a front lip and a few other exterior mods.

I kind of see every spring as a new "Season" to show off my car, so this year had the majority of the work done to it and my budget is done for the year. A lot of work will go into it over the winter when it is parked

JDM framless mirror, exedy stg 1 clucth and some whiteline goods to go in soon.

Also working on getting a rare all around lip/spoiler kit. Excited to see if I can get it, waiting on shipping prices. The it will replace my current side skirts and rear spats. Full kit will be painted to match the car - total OEM+ look.
