    Thanks! I love scouring Kijiji. Found that by looking for parts for my camaro, searched 'racing' undercar parts and wheels, was looking anything really, and the Recaro showed up. Came from JApan by way of a silvia, when it got here wouldn't pass inspection got parted out, sold to a kid with a 240sx and now it goes into an intrepid!

    Seat bracket gets ordered next payday!!

    Car has not been sold, blown up or thrown away. (tho, most would probably suggest any or all for this car)

    Installed my brake ducts today and Wednesday I go in for an exhaust quote. Keep ya'll posted

    So I am looking for suggestions on rims. I want to move up to 19 x10.5 and its doable if I have an offset of +15 or lower. Was thinking of Volk TE37 TTA's but $4000 for rims is a bit steep and I have no problem leaving race car rims to race cars.

    I do want rims that will be affordable, look decent enough and are going to be durable. I have looked at 5 spokes, mesh style, multi piece and mono piece. Was looking on axis, but their lack of information has turned me away. (Offset's of rims not posted, have to guess and play on rimsntires.com and figure it out by trying to match up their listed lip size) and anywhere I look when I put in for an intrepid it gives me ugly 20's in like diamonds and chrome. and I know there are many cars out there with a 5x114.3 bolt pattern.

    I don't like the look of most 20's and I find the 18's just don't look big on my car. I feel a set of 19's with a decent squared set up and a nice lip will really set off the car. And I want to find rims first because I know I will require body work to run something that wide, so I would rather not pay for a paint booth twice.

    Any insight would be awesome! Open to any idea's!

    With winter on its way, I have started to get used to parking her in the garage now. During the last week of October I will be pulling the registration on her and start on a few more modifications. Also going back to djing and I am hoping to be putting the money I earn from that into a set of custom coilovers to bring her down some more and tighten up the ride.

    Still in debate on a wire tuck, may wait till I am replacing the engine again, do it while the engine is out and I can rip apart my dash to pull the last few pieces of my A/C system out and swap to an Auto climate control / display versus my factory piece.

    I do plan on getting my autostick to work over this winter, really wish these cars had come from factory with a manual but no such luck, but the transmission shares many similarities with a porsche's design.

    New windshield, tint and speakers inside are definite plans this coming winter as well!

    Will try and keep everyone posted!!

    Started to get my credit in check, should be starting my own automotive brand name this year, use my intrepid as my 'demo' car and if goes well then I really need to make this car really stand out. Thinking of attending H20i not next year but in 2015, unless something crazy happens and I can make it sooner lol

    I will keep this spot updated as I go!

    Link to a small collection of what I have documented on this car, not really in order because the camera changed a few times, and never set dates properly

    Been busy with work, taking care of no starting issues, alignments etc.. Hopefully going to be able to save for a set of custom coil overs over winter and get my car sitting a little bit lower yet. Maybe taking other suspension pieces into my own hands and getting slightly beefier ones custom made
