Cool, I'll make it a priority. It'd be great to get this thing on the track as well.

I'm expecting delivery on Monday, if not tomorrow. The drive can be done in a day, it just depends on other stops he had along the way. It may be the first time I've wanted a weekend to end this badly.

Sorry for the delay, I've been busy and haven't had time to take/upload pictures.

I did take delivery on Monday. As soon as the driver said "This is too much car for me, I'm scared of it. Can you take it off of the trailer?" that it was going to be wicked. It did not disappoint. It pulls hard on low boost and is ridiculous on high. Once I get new tires and it warms up I only expect it to get better. It draws so much attention and I've received many compliments from all sorts of people. I could not be more pleased with it as it stands.

Here are some pictures I took when I got it cleaned up. If anyone is able to photoshop the parking pass out I would greatly appreciate it. I forgot to take it down. If somebody can, let me know and I will email you the full size file.

it is a nice looking car but dude go get it on a dyno asap..do yourself a favor and have the tune checked and touched up if needed..all it takes is the tune to be off and that car just looks good sitting in the driveway..Personally id do that before even getting into boost just to be sure..find your nearest good tuner for the software you have..im sure some seaching on here and u can

Thanks. It does sound mean! It drones quite a bit but it's bearable for me.

The eyelids are painted on with clear coat over them it appears, so I'll have to figure out how to cleanly remove them. Wetsanding?

Will do. I know of two good shops in the area so I'll compare rates and try to make an appointment next week. I'll be sure to make some videos, I've been trying out some different mounting locations for my go pro.

have you considered AMS to tune your car? i know they mainly do DSM's but I have seen some GTR's there.

if you for some reason wanna get rid of either that hood...or front bumper. let me know! i'll trade plus cash.
