• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

Getting prep started on the turbo GTP.



Picked up my new Air/Fuel set up to replace the one that broke, and while I was out picked up some carbon fiber vinyl to do some work on my motegi traklite rims. Going to use it on the center caps to black it out even more. May find some other use for it to, will have to wait and see.

Getting the trunk ready for show season. Tidied up a few things and took some of the vinyl and redid the diamond in the trunk. Here is a few pics of how it all looks. Also a pic of the flames painted on my taillights. I have had a few people ask me about how it looks on the tails.

I would love to have a black arrow head with the carbon fiber in the middle like that for my bumper.

Edit: thinking about it now, the middle part would be so small you wouldn't even be able to tell is carbon fiber.

Car looks killer!

I know this is a strange question but what kind of gas mileage do you get with the IS4/turbo setup?

Picked up a few more odds and ends to finish the suspension hopefully this week. I have GTO blockers now, going to try these and see how they work out.

Finished up the sway bars and getting the rest of the suspension finished up to start on the top of the car.

Finished up the calipers today and kept them black for more of a stealth look to make the blue sway bars stand out more.

Sweet car gets sweeter.

How come you didn't paint the rotor hats?

Thank you both very much. I have to use spacers for the rims and they are painted and never really thought about it to be honest. I will shine them up before I put the rims back on and like the shine with the black rims.
 
Just got my new polished shorter dog bones in. Will be selling the 3800performance ones if anyone is interested in the next work or so. You can see both of them in the pic.

Just finished getting the car back on the ground. Have the brakes, sway bars, wheel studs, tidy upped the undercarriage with some sound spray, and some other odds and ins. Also put new black lug nuts on the rims and added the carbon fiber on the center caps. Just got my tint in for my fog lights and will start on those in the next day or so. Then start into the motor and hopefully have it ready for summer pretty soon.

Already been said a hundred times, but damn thats alot of nice work.Very clean.:th_thumbsup-wink:
 
Thank you very much, it means a lot!

Just finished up the Fog lights with some minor tint to give it even a more black out effect on the car. The pic does not do it justice, it looks a little more darker in person.
