Default Reintroduction with mod list and pics.

My names Ben, i have a superblack '03 track edition. while i used to be very active, i've been pretty scarce the last year or two, so I figured I'd start a thread with some pics and a list of mods to get everyone (including myself) up to speed.

So here goes nothing, in no order or organization.

Z1 pcv hoses
Crawford intake plenum (painted red)
Crawford strut bar
Random dressy engine stuff (painted batt and master cylinder covers, radiator and oil caps.)
JWT pop charger
Momo red shift ****
Redline goods ebrake and shift boot. And console lid.
Painted center console and transmission tunnel finisher
Painted switch covers
Pioneer premiere headunit
ED 9.4 amp
PG xs2500
JL W6v2 in custom box
Cxt audio front components
Alpine R rear components.
JL fill tweeters
SFR exhaust
Painted headlights
Oldschool bluebatmobile taillight overlays
Red led footwell lights
Red led under strut lights
30mm wheel spacers


That's all I can think of at the moment.

So on to pics!

What doesn't match?

I got a good deal on the Shifter, and im not positive what a pokewhatever ball looks like. I like the way it feels.

Anyway, the exterior is completely stock, so I'm not sure how its hideous.

The interior isn't finished, going to go with a red trim. Which is why the red stuff sticks out.



My plan was to go with a silver/red trim. Bad idea?

My interior plan was a momo quark wheel.


And some red leatherseats.com replacements.


I respect your "it's ugly" comments, but I'd like some actual constructive critisism to what specifically you dislike.

Thanks for the welcome KB. Long time no see.

So what if I do this on the inside?:

1: Change *****.
2: carbon fiber dash kit
3: flow the red stitching to the a new steering wheel and new seat leathers.
4: diamond plate floor mats. (Always liked those)

wow quality build for the sound system.
The spacers on the wheels is also a thumbs up.
the interior a less is more approach would favor your build.
red and silver are two colors that dont really work well together.
I would personally go with a majority black ie seats, dash, door handles, twm shift ****.
I like the red idea but keep it subtle i like the shift boot red that is the subtle i am talking about ie black leather seats with red stitching.

Well, I have plans for the engine bay. Gonna get a oem engine cover and paint it to match the batt/fluid covers.

I have some red samco radiator hoses on the way as well as some silver ground wires.

Also my future nitrous setup will add some bling in there too.

Thanks for your input friend.

I put a lot of work into that sound system. I tweaked it for so long to get it like I want that I'm scared to death if the battery ever dies. Lol

I think I'm going to get a dash kit and stick it on top of both the silver and black to get the two pieces (the gloss black and gloss silver) to flow better. But I need to be damn sure that's what I want to do, because once its stuck on I won't be able to get it off without destroying them.

I really like the momo quark wheel, so maybe ill get the black version instead of the black/red.

I thought about plasti-dipping the handles and wheels on the outside....
