  1. I put in a CAI and have noticed quite a bit of difference in power and less fuel consumption.

    1) Not a cold air intake, it's just filter and would be considered a warm air intake, if anything

    2) No horsepower gains will be had with that. You MIGHT experience a microscopic improvement in throttle response at best. But it's all in your mind, you think it's helping, but in reality it isn't

    3) Fuel economy hasn't improved at all. Maybe you just haven't hit any additional hills than usual. But just like the horsepower, all in your mind.

    This car does kind of bring back memories from 10 years ago when I had my 97. Man time flies.

  2. that sounds like a cool idea. try to get them as glossy as possible tho. that way the light reflects better. how about black chrome? whats your bulb size?

    I'm going to take my time with them and make sure they are done right.

    Third Brake Light: 921

    Brake/Turn Light: 3057

    Outer Brake Light: 194

    These are going in tomorrow.

  3. I agree it could look great but can the LED pattern be spread enough to not look retarded?

    To be determined. No one knows just yet. 6LE should have a set completed this weekend and we will see. I found some really nice bulbs at superbrightleds.com that I would probably go with. We shall find out soon.

  4. They are still at the vinyl shop. 6LE is having a bitch of a time finding someone to properly do the honeycomb vinyl. This guy finially stepped up and has been doing good work. Those aren't the finished product just yet. I'm still trying to find another set of tail lights so I can rip those apart, and not mine. But people keep throwing theirs away (with broken lenses) before I can buy them. Since the housings will be clear and the OEM housings are silver, I think I'm going to some custom painting in my housings. Maybe black so it gives it a really aggressive and unique look with the clear lenses with red LED bulbs. I think it could be extremely cool if done right.


  5. Issue is not motivation for people showing cars, the garage this or that takes care of that, its people nominating for POTM. Not that many people did it :\

    Really? Eh that sucks. Maybe more will happen when summer comes around.

  6. Thinking about a 1.5" spacer for the rear and a 1.25" spacer for the front. It will leave about 3/8" of an inch gap when the front wheels are fully turned in. Cutting it so damn close, but I think it would work. Sucks that no one has this wheel/brake combo....Or is it awesome :)
