:-0 WOW can you say nismo? lol awsome car yo  

omg! the best of both worlds. sweet car  

How long did the project take to build? It's a super clean build. I keep coming to this thread to peek at it. I'm like a fly drawn to poop! LOL! Not that you're car is poop, mind you. It's a work of art. LOL! I'm weak for things like that!

Its a year and half into construction.  Not much more to do really.

I gotta weld in the roll cage and put my interior in, re make the cluster, finish the exhaust, and wheels.

I was going to ask why you went with Konig wheels until I read through your mod list. ha ha ha I'm glad you're looking for different rims... not that there's anything wrong with Konig. *cough*

Where are you located? I'd love to see this beast in person!  

I smell a cover car for Super Street! Hint, hint! LOL!

hint, hint! some more. why don't you like konig?  

When I swapped to 5 lug and big brakes I needed wheels to make it mobile and I got them for almost nothing so they are very temporary.  Hopefully at the end of the week I will have a new set of wheels. Seeking 17x8's up front and 17x9.5 or 10's for the rear.

It should be finished this March.  I need to re-do the gauge cluster, Put my new diff in, fix a trans leak, get the speedo working, alignment, roll cage, and coilovers.

I feel your pain. The list is long and I assume that you do this when you're off of work. Right? Once your done with it, write to the big wigs at this site to get a cover story on the car. To me, it's worthy of a cover shoot. I'll say it again, or maybe it's my first time saying it... Any way, my hat's off to you, bud. LOL! Can't wait to see the finished product.

Wow! I envy you, in a way. In a good way, though. LOL! Nice job, bro. The look of the wheels fit it perfectly. The interior is oem, but very clean looking. Nice. Unless you tell some one of the modifications, they wouldn't know a thing untill you beat them in a race at a track. Very nice, man. I still say that you deserve a cover shoot. g_racer would love to show off your car in his site untill SS gets to you with a possible photo shoot. The Europeans are hungry for what we do here. Give them a taste. By the way, I like the PUG, he's awsome.

Hmm I have been working on it, hard and low like she likes lol.

Since my last update... Its tagged, inspected, and on the roads.  Exhaust is done.... 4 mufflers (Two 12in cherry bombs in place of cats, and 2 Borla XR Series in the rear), Installed a 6 point Cusco bolt in cage for now.  Got a proper alignment, Purchased matching sideskirts (being painted now), Fix my trans, leaks and tuning issues.

Thing is SCARY fast.  at 75mph at 3500 RPM, WOT 100 in 1.5 sec.  Handles great.

Super Street..... I could use exposure, I am actively seeking a transmission sponsor, may have picked up my first sponsor last night.... C02 chiller for the intake.

Progress is good

The good stuff...
