ya. id love to be able to keep my wheels on all year long and not have to switch the 'winter mode'

but then again, my wallet would never get a break from me buying stuff for my car, so i guess it works out ok.
lol. winter time is interior mods

The baddest-*** upper strut tie-bar I've seen. Triangulate and dominate.

wow if you think that is clean! I am fixing a radiator leak, trans leak, and oil leak so it isn't clean at all once you look at it. Thanks on the black, I am sticking to a black theme under the hood, only my hard pipes are grey at the moment, til I am finnished with my final set-up. New Turbo mani is going in with the build back. Rust is never a problem in GA, unless the car came from somewhere else. I have a 86 RX7 that never left the state and it is emaculate under the hood, cept the motor is sitting in front of the car.

Thank you. Nope no plans right now. When the warranty is over I may consider boosting but thats a big maybe. Depends on how well things are going and if I can get a second vehicle then it would make more sense for more power. I really am just a cruiser but it would be nice to have more power but lets face it the P5 is not a good choice to those seeking to build a power house, can be done but expensive, it was either the P5 or an SRT4 and I'm glad I chose the P5.

I just like nice clean car with some personal touches that's reliable and gets noticed the odd time plus be useful for all around work or play. But to really answer your questions I do have some plans to dress up the engine compartment, maybe polish or paint the valve cover and I have to paint my brackets for the overflow bottle and the 2 rad supports, they have kinda lost their lustre and replace the strut bar with a cusco unit or GSpec.

I'm with Natey .. haven't changed in quite some time. But I am working on converting to a 626 valve cover, so I'll post pics once that's all done.
