Damn, dude, lemme just say that looks awesome! I've got a Pearl White 01 SH and I just got a brand new paint job w/ OEM lip kit, and I'm loving it. And I detailed my engine bay just yesterday, but its obviously nowhere near that, haha. All I got to say is wow, dude. Nice. :D

We need more pics. Teasing us every other week is not good enough.

I will be expecting dyno numbers, videos, sound effects and time line, or i will kill you!

Looking good man, how much longer till you can fire it up?

Don't know if anyone ask but how come you didn't take out all that ABS lines if you were going with a shave bay. I think it'll look a lot more cleaner with out it and I don't think you really need ABS unless your driving in the snow or real wet roads which I'm sure you wont be by the investments you put in.

I know you said you wanted to keep it a street car but you don't really need ABS do you? just wondering and I hope to do a shave and wire tuck in the future to but dam I wish the alternator and power steering pump was in the back.

yeah ive been asked a lot about the ABS system.. every one has asked me why i kept it.. and simply because ABS works.. pretty much in houston, it rains almost all year long.. summer spring winter, you name it , it rains lol.. and ill probably drive the car in the rain sometimes.. just depends on my mood.. but yeah thats why i choose to keep it

Been a member here for a short while, read alot but dont like to post coz us australians builds are very mild compared to you boys. I just love sitting back, watching and awaiting the day i can build something up to this level.

Currently saving my hard earned $$$ for a turbo build its stuff like this that makes me want to get there sooner.

I cannot think of another thread that would get me to post just in pure appreciation, dude, ur car is sex!!! i think i need tissues.

cannot wait for numbers!
