OK guys...LOTS OF PICS-Civ is almost done! models too!

In a nut shell... I've put over $20k in mods alone now. There's obviously stuff you can't see with these pics alone, but you can have my word that they're there.

Mods such as tranny upgrades (clutch, flywheel, etc.), and suspension stuff... You get the idea.

Needless to say, I'm about finished with this car for quite a while. It needs a new paint job with some body work, and lower comp pistons, and I'm about done.

New mods since last pics... Eclipse touch screen DVD system with 5.1 decoder, repainted sf logo and re-done ntercooler setup, new floormats, emanage install, blah.. Don't know anymore... But I'll make a massive mod list in a few...

Here you go guys... PLEASE tell me what you think. Hours and hours of work have gone into this, along with almost all of my income. I'm only 19 and expect to have better projects in the future... BTW - I do dailydrive this car so some mods have been pushed back for the time being.





















If you guys click on "MY RIDE" in my sig, there are higher res pics available, in case you find something you like.

The only thing I am not feeling is the tezzas .. I know I'm a slight hypocrite as I have em too, I'm eventually going to smoke them when I have a chance. I feel smoked, your car would flow better..

For previous posts...

Altezzas are gone tomorrow, I'm waiting on stockies...

The CF hood came with a molded "lid" if you will... 6 screws and the vent is sealed for driivng in the rain.

All of the money I've made at my comission job, doing installs on other people's cars, and DJing has been put into this. That and about 5k worth of credit (which I'm currently taking care of).

Great ride and very clean. I wouldn't mind driving it. Only things I don't like are the fog lights and tezzas (which are coming off anyway). Good job.

As Mr.Modify stated... 04 stockies or lower?

Maybe its just me .. but I think its to take debt on to modify a car. Like I said maybe its just me.

In any event, the car looks nice. Enjoy it!
