what kinda bulbs to get that blue light in your turn signals?
they are MUCH more crisp white in person. MILD hint of purple, if anything. bright as hell.

Pioneer AVHP4000DVD. Awesome deck for the price. Does damn near everything. Sounds great IMO, and you can color match the display and buttons to pretty much any color interior lighting.

thanks dude! its FINALLY "getting there". once the bad weather clears, the aero front goes back on. Then meatier tires once i burn these off, then get that damned SR20 in it.

then find a cleaner shell lol

probably not in this chassis. ill most likely build one for fun, but save it for when i swap over to a cleaner shell in a few years (or be motivated to straighten the body out on this one....)

i would build one for you, but i can guarantee it wont be for cheap a LOT of labor and research and time is required to scratchbuild a streetcar harness.

race car is MUCH different

ehh you're a little misinformed on the ls1, but i'll just leave it at that instead of thread jacking.

Car looks great, Your first stage build sounds like mine. I am insane with my OCD. I bought a brand new stock oem exedy clutch because i didnt want to use the 6 puck i had for getting used to everything.

I bought brand new injectors because one pintle cap was broken on one of the injectors. I also bought a brand new oem fuel rail as well because im insane.

The wiring too...

I would go on but this is YOUR build thread. I'll save my insanity for my build thread haha, when that happens.

Anyways, car is looking AMAZING i love battles mmmm.

I'm bored. just went thru the roll center thread on zilvia... want moar ... i want some ball joints... lol, all in time.
Weight Bias: ahahaha, weighs just a little less than ka. sits about the same.

Cost: you win. $9k to do it the way i wanted.

Daily Drive: would only make that MORE fun. LSXPOWER-OVERCORNERSFTW

Gas: it would have a T56 6 spd. 30+ mpg highway. same as SR.

Reasons im doing SR instead: driving joels car sparked a fire under my a**, i already OWN it, i SPECIALIZE in SR/Nissan wiring, cost, BOOOOOOST

and to piss people off by NOT running a BOV on a boosted car.

im the only coupe. they are boss. DMAX's. love em.

Wing is R32 GTST. had it imported, obviously.

Wheels are mb battles, 17x9.5" +15. 3mm slip-on in front to clear coils. 215/45/17 all around. used to run 245/45/15 rt615 on all 4. long story short, be careful who you pay for alignments, cus your new tires will be slicks in 6 weeks flat cus your alignment guy sucks the big one.

i need like 235/40/17 ish. i miss bigger tires.

and yeah, we own IDENTICAL aero. my piggy is on cus of the crap weather lately. fiberglass goes on in decent weather
