    Nice car dude, I would of kept the rotas tho, but I know how it feels to be on a budget and not wanting to drive on crappy steel wheels. Many people on stance works don't really understand some of the issues many of us face. Not every one can spend 5 grand on some nice 3 piece "real" and not fake wheels.

    Keep going man

    OP dont listen to him, people like this are what make the modifying scene look like shit. You're a kid on a budget and you are driving something that doesn't have chrome tails and some shit off ebay on it I give you props I woulda killed to have a car that dope in high school.

    And OP don't listen to the guy talking shit. I'm in high school, so I understand the budget issues. Your car is looking good! Great start!

    3.) That exhaust sucks.

    Just because you're in high school doesn't give you an excuse to 'build' (A huge stretch of phrasing) a shitty car.

    OP, as a fellow highschooler, I respect your build. Car is simple, mods are effective. Ignore this guy. I like.
    Its the internet, grow a thicker skin....especially when it is not your car.

    I'm not making this thread about my cars.

    Fnf's are just fine
    The exhaust ain't quite my taste, but I also don't like lettuce on my burgers.
    I'm not complaining that the wheels aren't Rotas, I think all knockoffs suck.

    HOWEVER, the fact that he made fun of Slips and is totally cool with XXR's suggest dude is just hopping from one bandwagon wheel to another (Although everything he's done suggests that)

    FF's are not just fine, they're Taiwanese crap.

    Hey guys. So the car has been up and running as of Friday. I've been working, and well, enjoying the car over that time frame. Tomorrow I plan on doing the wheels and refinishing them plenty nice, as to be honest they're an eye sore. My drivers side side skirt also kick flipped off in city traffic and was run over by a pick-em-up truck, so I'll need a new one of those. Aside from that, she just needs some body work and fenders and it'll be looking a whole lot more up from there.



    And here's my oil pan. 1/4" steel welded to the bottom. Seems to be working well thus far. I painted it so it's easier to decipher if it's leaking or damaged at night time.


    Wheel update pics tomorrow fo sho.

    Got the new pan all braced up and welded. Now just waiting on the gasket to show up, and a nice day when I'm not working to get this thing back together.
