mine is surface rusted and plain ugly. can i have mine powdercoated without negative effect?

thats hilarious, i do that too!

had the F54 block re-honed and painted with brass freeze plugs installed. the head just got a simple valve job. the stainless exhaust valves i had were too big for the E88 but i was able to use the stainless intake valves. what i have for the new build = new water and oil pump, AZ Car baffled oil pan, ZX dizzy, MSD blaster coil, 6-2-1 header, mikuni triple 40phh carbs, trw timing kit, E88 head, flat top pistons, new bearings and piston rings. having these things powdercoated: motor mounts, cam timing cover, valve cover, alternator bracket... more but can't think of right now.

headlights: Ebay $35 Acura MDX projectors, converted to fit D2S HID bulbs: $90 Philips 4300k D2S HID bulbs: $65 Matsushita ignitors and ballasts: $200 PVC 2" Pipe reducers: $5 the MDX projectors are an excellent projector for the money however it is not bi-xenon. For amazing output look into Acura TSX, Honda S2000, Lexus LS430 (the absolute best), Acura TL (for the best bi-xenon). These are all made by "Stanley". the Matsushita ballasts are some of the best and this model is truly waterproof but you can find OEM BMW/Mercedes/etc. ones that are good on ebay for much less now. good luck!

that looks hot man

hey GLOCK23, i made that.. its very easy

that rasp of the stock M3 is an acquired taste. i tend to like it... two of my good friends both drive M's however, they sure don't sound anything like a ricer Honda.

here is mine without the cover glass installed

looks good, price? please PM me. also, are the parts still going by greyhound express from mexico?

oh.. hrmm.. well, if you decide you want this kit i'll be more than happy to order it and ship it to you.

i got mine from http://www.ez2wire.net and the quality looks good. they use thicker gauge wire than most and the 12 circuit was just $115. EDIT: plus you can download diagrams and installation guides for their kit from them.

Sick!

i dont see a lot of guys with shaved door handles and side markers.. so i guess mine is unique in that way.

just curious why you went with the flat top carbs?

I voted 911. the new 997's are gorgeous and JDP rated Porsche #1 most reliable brand to boot. The M3 definately gets my 2nd vote. My friend has one and wow that is one well balanced car. PLENTY of power, great handling and driveablility. He does complain about having his $50k car whooped on by Mustangs though lol. the CLK is nice and any of the AMG's are quick but do you want to hassle with the billions of electrical problems that they have? The Viper doesn't seem very "daily driver" friendly... but what a stunning car to look at. the Z06 however great, isn't the best built IMO. As stated already above, the NSX is an amazing car. Light, fast, exotic, and gets decent gas mileage too. Not to mention its Japanese built by HAND. My close friend has one (for sale too) and that car definately hauls ***. Also consider a 2002-2003 BMW M Coupe with the S54 motor if buying used isn't a problem for you. You either love the style or hate it.. I think it looks bad ***! good luck on your decision!

thanks for the reply i sent you a PM

beautiful car there! run a quick search on the YZ there are a few members here with that kit and I believe there are a few threads that have installation pics as well.

mg53, did you ever find those horns...?

how did you do that? hole saw?

i remember the previous model used a Ford engine but they said this CCX uses its own in-house engine. according to "the Stig" it also needs a rear spoiler to keep its @$$ down

i read an article years back that said 2000GT's only swapped hands when billionaires died. i saw my first real 2000GT in person at a car show and i fell in love (of course it reminded me of my Z lol).

for your seats i think you take your existing fabric off and measure the size. then simply use the original as a template. the other stuff i'm not sure.. watch some Pimp My Ride and watch Ish do his thang. try http://www.technicalvideorental.com or search the car audio forums. good luck
