you gonna swap the wheels off the turtle over to the coupe? i like them a lot more than the 3spokes.i don't think it looks too bad. i kinda want to get a coupe as a daily driver as i work on my hatch. as soon as mine is paid for i'm thinking about getting one.

coupe>hatch
less frame weight because it can use the body for strength whereas the hatch has a big gapping hole that needs to be compensated for... LOL -------------------- 94' ST Coupe - 5sfe Motor swap and brake swap.

thanks frosty...
for all you coupers out there, i will be keeping the coupe ONLY because i dont want to go through the hassle of going to alabama towing the hatch to savannah (tweak's shop) and keeping it there unitl the spring when its swap time. (and besides...i am kinda starting to like the coupe...A LITTLE....   i honestly just dont know what to do with it as far as looks go i need more examples, they are scarce on here!

If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here...

curren tails, TRD splitters, 97 front end w/ SSIII splitters, custom ducktail spoiler (or an E46 M3 spoiler), lowered and turbo and it will be sexiating..lol
Personaly, i think the coupe does handel a little bit better then the HB stock, but i think you can make a HB handel better then a coupe. Any ways, shes not that bad, but does need some work. I cant wait to see what u get done with this one man. |
