after:

Rep Power: 583 wow, i really like your ride. I wouldn't do anything else to the exterior, except maybe a CF hood, but that might ruin how clean it looks.

Rep Power: 278 LOL! I was watching that rear conversion on ebay, but I decided I have more important things right now. It IS a sweet deal. Good luck with it.

Rep Power: 0 what else is involved in that conversion.....
I good friend of mine totaled his si and it was basically a big scrap. I pulled off the rear disc brakes like those pictured. I have had them for about 6 months now just laying around and I may sell them. What else is involved in the conversion. I heard you need something like a larger master cylinder or something like that. If its too much work I will just sell on here.

thanks for all the compliments guys. As far as tinting my windows...I really don't know. I've wanted to since day one, but in my mind, i come up with excuses like "but that's $120 that could go towards _____ instead..." Turbo and rear discs being in that blank the last few months. Maybe once I've finished all these projects I will.

Rep Power: 0 looks awesome, just throw the turbo in, and build the motor. your car looks so hot at is. I would leave it other than maybe tint, which isnt even needed.

I think I will either shave or paint the door handles, but the mirrors are staying black. Speaking of which...should I shave the handles? I can get the body work done for free, so...what'ya guys think? and yes, yes, boost is coming...this isn't exactly cheap. I have to invest atleast another $1300 just to get it going. But ETA is end of summer.
