I am sorry I have been absent lately. I have been trying to sell a LOT of parts to fund buying new ones. I still cant get rid of the Greddy exhaust. If it doesnt sell, I will tune with it and swap to the Tomei later on..... I got the fuel lines on and am running the final wires and hoses tomorrow and Sunday night. I just ordered the Kinetix manifold. It should be a solid setup. Once thats all in and wired back up, I will drop the transmission and install the new clutch. Then off to the shop it goes for the tune and a general check over on parts. Maybe a new turbo exit tube as mine is cracked. Wheels get back in my hands on Wednesday, which means on the car the following week. The steering wheel gets here next week. Carbon Fiber Element did a STAND OUT JOB on it!!!!

What do you mean? Like the new color on the car? It's actually a really deep greed that flips to blue, Aqua, yellow, black. But you can make whatever color you want with them. The new pigments you mix them in with clear and spray.

All that I have left for now, is to put the bolts down, hoses tightened up. Then run some wiring in between my headlights, mount the battery, then get the clutch in and get it off to the race shop... Here is some progress pics.
Engine bay
Headlights. I have to run some wiring between lights so that both run.
Demon eyes can change colors.

Got my car on the ground and all set to go to the shop! Transmission is all ready on the ground and new Clutch is going in. So, here are the Almost FINAL pics of the car... (just no bumper)
All the hard work is paying off... THIS is the first time I have seen this paint job in the sunlight. My son ( 2 years old) was SOOOOOOO EXCITED to see the tow truck and they even let him play with the switches to load the car onto the truck. Made his day!!!!!!!! Well here is the car all loaded up.

The fact that my car even gets tossed into the same crowd as those cars makes me happy. MY build isnt for everyone. Camber game isnt for everyone. APR widebody isnt for everyone.... Everyone has their own unique build they prefer. thats fine.

Here is a good update. Piping is in. Stainless Steel and welded up. Intercooler mounted and set. Bad news is they can hook up the scantool and talk to the car but the Uprev unit will not talk to the car.... This is all over my head haha. After this they are fixing the exhaust and tuning the car then its just fix the AC and rewire the cluster. Then off to my interior guy hook up the new Appleradio 4 delete my GPS system and be GOOD!!!!!

Here are a few updates. Some pictures are repeats... But most are new. Those who have been following know I re wired my entire interior to accommodate a 06+ speedometer AND the clock trim... The dash from the 06+ was different than the 03. NOW before some say why spend the time modifying your 03 interior. Why not just swap the dash. YOU CANT JUST SWAP IT. ITS NOT THAT EASY. The 05 dash is shorter and a different swap it. If you do a full swap into your car the only thing you can really keep is the glove box. EVERYTHING ELSE NEEDS TO BE SWAPPED. (Dash, A pillars, Drivers kick panel, Door panels, Center Console, Waterfall, Double Din, and the Cubby pieces... ALL THAT WOULD NEED TO BE SWAPPED.
ANYWAYS. I found a dash from a totaled car and modified the center piece to fit into my current dash then covered it in suede. I also have WAY to much work wrapped up into carbon fiber to just swap it all out.
Here was what the interior looked like before the modding.
During
After... I have to stitch the lids though. I will be doing a black stitch on it.
06 gauge swapped in.
Swapped the LED's
Custom Steering Wheel
Rear cup holder.
Carbon Fiber Inlay on the door. (This is not my door, but this will be what is going on my car)
