i swore i'd never own another non-pi car... :smokin:

it needs some work, but i couldn't pass up the deal for how well it runs.
mods: 3:73's, bbs wheels, catted mids, borla catback(i'm really digging the sound), CDC light bar, tokico illuminas, and sportlines.
first up: aluminum driveshaft, poly motor mounts, and a good detail. then, dark charcoal interior and a new top. need to find a shifter...this trucker **** ain't cuttin' it.

i think i'll call it tina, topless tina.

Don't like the look of the wheels or the exhaust. paint def needs work, but that looks like a good starting point! hope you stick around again.

paint has already been buffed. not sure if i'm going with my extra set of bullitts, my aza z1's, or just these. i like the wheels, but the offset sucks on the rear.

I like the wheels. I've never seen a vert without a rear spoiler before, I like it.

I was just thinking that. Its a huge difference, like a lot more than with a coupe.

I ALMOST like the wheels. They're too flat though for my tastes but it defiently looks to be a good starting point. You said you didn't need PI parts, are you not upgrading or are you upgrading to the big stuff?

thanks for the compliments.
it's not a non-pi car. ;)
it came with an s351 spoiler, painted laser, but not mounted. i don't like that spoiler so it will be sold. i want an s281 or i'll just leave it spoilerless.
trying to decide between cobra heads or a set of black beauty's/smoked.
thanks for the wheel trade offer, but i can't stand cobra R's. sorry. this car should get bullitts soon.

I say stick with the BBS wheels...just throw a spacer out back. Paint definitely needs some love, but I'm diggin the light bar.

went away in a trade, came back.
just sitting for now, gotta get the trans and radio fixed, and then pimp it/sell it.

just realized i never posted post-buffing pictures.
the porter cable did WONDERS on it. unfortunately, the rear bumper didn't clean up too much and the front isn't salvageable(peeling). oh well.

one quick pic:

I really like the BBS wheels. Gives it an agressive street look. Don't do bullitts dude, keep those BBS on there.

Looks great without thre spoiler too
