Very nicely done, sir!
Yeah my list grows daily. The big things are brakes, seats, flex fuel kit and tune, and painting the hood and Chargespeed bumper I'm still waiting for. Theres also a ton of other smaller items I want to do as well, like new radiator, oil cooler, full Whiteline poly bushing upgrade for the suspension, CF driveshaft, taller final drive, stronger axles, URAS side skirts and spats, Password JDM strut tower brace and CF manifold cover, Radium oil catch can, full JDM under car panels, APR mirrors, etc. There's even more I want but I would just keep rambling on and on.

Just installed my @PrimeMotoring gauge cluster bezel and it looks sick as hell! I'm gonna have to pull the entire damn dash out later on to vacuum out all the crap I made when cutting some of the dash behind the panel out though.

Went to Import face-Off today and fought with rain, boredom, and lack of sleep today. Came out with 2nd place for Best Scion! Not too shabby for my first show and not a whole lot of cosmetic upgrades

Thanks! In an effort to finish up the performance mods I ordered my brakes today. After that I need to get the flex fuel conversion and tunes, CF driveshaft, sway bars, radiator, oil cooler, oil catch can, and drive axles. Once I have that side finished I can start back up on the cosmetics

Quick question about traction. In second gear if you full throttle say around 3.5k/4k will you lose traction? Just curious how violent it is. I'm not concerned about 1st gear, with that power it makes sense. Any more color will be helpful.

Theres a guy here with an xB that's about as tricked out as you can get that I lost to. I will be more competitive soon, getting a quote to have the car wrapped like this (minus the vendor stickers since I'll be reserving that for my sponsors):

Yes the car will break traction in second...and third if you floor it. I think with some suspension adjustment and better tires it won't be as bad.
