    The pcm was so worth it to me, the fact i live in KS, means nearly perfectly level roads to just fly down with speed limits 75mph near my house so i can just jump on highway ftw.
    *legally

    EDIT: I will say when i took this vid i had almost no interrior in car, just driver seat and me essentially.

    That was during the interior replacement, the previous owner decided to let it rain with the windows down and everything got soaked so we had to strip all out to get rid of the smell =/.

    I guess so haha, the end goal is to get it to look like sandman's GTP, but be ZZP crate engine, tranny and turbo kit. (that's the hope at least)

    The Pontiac on the center , the lights will pulse with beat of music too. And yes that's the front seats in the back, i got tired of people arguing over who had back seat middle on the hump. So its gone, and friends like it one calls it a Maybach because the amount of room in the coupe rear seats anyway haha as well as the seats are red, the camera decided to make them a bit pink.
