Lol, I told you I thought white would look sick way back before you painted them the first time and you didn't like it. I think it looks good as I see a lot of pastel or close colored cars with white wheels that I think look awesome. Maybe at least try it out, because they will get super dirty. But the color you had them looks great too.

Teal.

[whatthe]

Hahaha your slicing your tyres. Good times i remember when i did that. Really gave me the ****s.

[playr158]

Stick with the dark gunmetal.

[HectortheRican]

I say the gunmetal. White looks good, but on darker cars.

Ha ha yeah most of that is gone now i hope or the hammer is coming back out
and i really want to try white, but its just such a hard color to keep looking good which is why i didnt do it the first time, still not sure though..

[whatthe]

Oem silver... just saying ;0

So tired of rubbing, every time i hit a bump i rub, think the car will be coming back up, not much. but just enough so i can retain functionality of it, hate to do it but also hate rubbing everywhere i go

[playr158]

^I can understand that
If i put more than 1 person in my dub, its nonstop rubbing. and so much for aggressive turning

[96stgreendemon]

Lol what agressive tuning






Yaaaayyyyyy, it was finally warm enough on a day when i wasn't busy as hell so i actually got to put the splitters on and wash her..... still rubbing though, but its cool, it gets quiter when the gas gets lower lol

[HectortheRican]

That looks sexayyyyyy. Hurry up and roll them fenders lol

[96stgreendemon]

the fenders are rolled, but they need to be rolled more, im waiting on a guy around here to let me borrow his eastwood roller

[96stgreendemon]

Haven't really updated in awhile, been doing alot of work and alot of research.
-first off, some a$$hat hit my rear fender and took off about a week ago, so trying to fix that, and they keep giving me the wrong shade of paint.
-Fenders are now rolled in rear no more rubbing
-Spending has begun for the 3S swap, pod, Afm wideband, oil press, and boost gauges have all been ordered
-looking for gaskets and such now, and also need to get in touch with _Jim_ about a motor
-Plan is to have the 3s by end of the summer, but so far the list is looking pricey, good stuff to come here shortly stay tuned!

[96stgreendemon]

Allright Folks, lots of parts coming in this week
-Apexi intake filter
-Oil pressure, Boost, and data logging wide band came in yesterday
-Kirk Motor mounts are in
-Rear 1/4 panel is painted (again)..... and still not matching FML
-got the gauge pod in
Just need to go ahead and wire everything up and well be set, and getting the bung welded in the test pipe

[Ted95]

car looks good bro, the spacers and the rear splits look nasty!

and congrats on starting to get stuff for the 3s swap. but listen lol take it from me, its a veryyy pricey project for a kid who is workin at a grocery store like myself lol. take your time and dont skimp out on anything. my 3s swap has already reached a year and i havent even put it in yet lol. (its going in the beginning of May ) but seriosuly, take your time and dont rush it, bc its going to get costly fast. good luck kyle!

[96stgreendemon]

Oh yeah, i've got about a 3pg spread sheet of random parts and fittings i need for the motor, list says about 3500 more as of now, but im sure that will change

ya i can honestly say so far with the motor as well, im up close to 6k on this swap, and its not even done haha, still gotta pay for my IC piping and b-pipe to be done once the motor is in. thats going pay check to pay check lol. last month i was havin second thoughts on the whole thing but i kno once shes in, it will be well worth it lol. just gotta be patient.

[96stgreendemon]

Yeah, but hell whats money anyways? im already up to my arse in student loans, so whats another 5 grand lol

[96stgreendemon]

So small update here, few days ago i finally got the bung welded into the test pipe for the wideband 02 sensor, yes on a 7a (i got tired of having a 200 gauge that did nothing lol. now i need to fix an exhaust leak where i fudged up the gaskets but oh well, and buying a parts GT here in a couple weeks that i will be pulling parts off of for the swap.
Still looking for a 3rd gen 3sgte though, trying to find a reputable place to buy one from, messaged _Jim_ a couple times but no responce so still on the hunt, coming into a little bit of money here soon so some more buying will start soon! keep posted for updates

[96stgreendemon]

Just an update on some awesome-sauce, Picking up a GT parts car sometime next week!!
