very nice.
i like where your fogs are,
i'm also very jealous of your arm rest.
can you give me some information on your dead pedal? like who makes it and where you got it?

I like! lower it abit more and do a sedan bumper conversion and 5speed con. then you'd be set! I like those wheels I have always wondered what they would look like with the gunmetal finish.


I like the interior too.

looks sweet from the outside. The interior is just overdone IMO.

Remember, I live in Idaho, POT HOLES SUCK- so I lowered it with 1.5 inch Eibach Sportlines, tokico shocks, a new rack and pinion, new upper arms, 2.5 degree camber kit, and new ADR SOKUDO rims! :super:

Next thing on my list: 5 speed conversion baby!

Keeps the auto. :D nice interior btw.

Can you see those guages from the drivers seat? I get a tone of glare if my guages are facing at an upward angle.

YEP, I CAN SEE THE GAUGES FINE FROM THE DRIVER'S SEAT. I POSITIONED THEM AT AN ANGLE TWARDS THE DRIVER'S SEAT WITH A RED LIGHT BEHIND THEM, THEY LOOK SWEET AT NIGHT.

very nice..... i personally like the interior. how much was it for the billet aluminum handbrake and auto shifter? i've thought about gettin those. different color of course. not feelin the rack on top, but i'm guessing it serves a purpose otherwise it wouldn't be there. is it just me or does this car give off a hint of touring style? nice job, i think it looks good.

IMO-the wheel gap is perfect.
What size of wheels are those 16's?
Now I can kinda get a idea what mine will look like with neuspeeds..Cant wait!!!

How do you like the tokico-and the ride?

umm....just me or CLEAR CORNERS?!?!? Looks pretty damn nice man!! I totally dig the color and rims! IMO, it seems like there's too much clutter in the cabin, but that's just me. Well done!!

dude, you just gave me a bunch of insparation cause i have the same color hatch as you so now i know how things look on it. ic you pealed off all that shit below the back windows, mine is coming up a bit but i didn't know if it would hurt any seals to scrape it off.

I live about 1.5 hours from Boise, but I plan on moving to Boise June 1st to go to BSU. The shift handle and E Brake handle were $50 for the pair.
As for the painted parts. I went to the salvage yard and bought all of the interior pieces, so I still had the stock pieces in my car. (I had two sets.) I just used normal Krylon Spray paint, 3 primers, 3 gloss, 3 clear coats. I wet sanded them in between primings, paintings, and clear coats. After they dried for a week, I traded the pieces. It was that easy.
Today I changed my pcv valve. The fucker broke in half so I had a fun time getting the second part out. She runs like a beauty (for 253,000 miles.)
As for the lowered stance. The eibachs ($215)are really stiff feeling, but the tokicos ($69 each) help a little . The springs help cornering hella good though.
I love my rims too, I recieved them on Valentine's Day as a present-From myself of course!

The rims are 17 inch, they look small because I have 45 series tires, to help cushion from the shitty roads where I live.

Autometer sells gauge angle fittings (they go around the gauge and give it an angle at whatever direction you point em at) that would go nicely. I plan to buy a set of those and install my gauges in that same place.

Speaking of which, is there anything behind that part of the dash that isn't keen on having a two inch hole driller pointed at it?

There is absolutely nothing behind that dash right there! :super: I was worrying about the same problem. I just took the glove compartment off and the plastic part right above where I drilled the holes to see if there were any wires. There isn't a thing behind there. That would be good place to hide some weed! Just use a drill and a two inch or so bit and start drilling. Hint (keep a vaccuum near by, and vaccuum in between drillings.
