I'm about this.

those GT's are awesome

wanna see this properly stanced naow

i was wondering when i was going to see this hehe.

the rear is going to be lowered down and i am going to switch to 15x8 in the rear but the car isn't going to be super slammed for a couple of reasons. First there is no tunnel for the exhaust since the floor is basically flat which hurts ground clearance. second because of what kind of suspension setup there is in the front (transverse leaf) i can't really go lower unless i create some sort of drop shackle on each side. that however kills the suspension geometry and handling. i might try and convert it to a coil spring setup but i have no idea if i will be able to...

don't worry it will look and handle fine in the end

Love that shot with the truck in the back... It looks so good bright red! Very good find!

probably 45s but i might go 48s or 52s, but i have to do some research first. right now i am thinking 45s for drivability's sake

I'm sure you probably already know this but just incase you don't:

This forum is a great resource for info about sidedraft carbs, itb's, and engine management. There's quite a few guys who really know there stuff in there. It helped me out quite a bit when I was retrofitting my gsxr throttle bodies on my old gti.

Alex, love your car man. Do you need a co-pilot for the drive to DB? I'm still waiting on that ride

[Majend]

doesn't look like you've torn into it yet, but the quality of that last pic makes me want to follow this build.

you are correct sir! i'm waiting until after campwerks to start working, the car is too much fun to drive to not enjoy it for the rest of the summer

Oh my god that thing is AWESOME! I can't wait to see what you do with it. What kind of side drafts are you putting on that little monster?
