The gallery makes me feel that it is now time to upgrade the looks of my car.

After the cams get installed I can't do anything else performance wise except build a low compression motor and I am not looking to do that anytime soon.

Personally, that sleeper look that you have works for me (read: is cool)... anyone that rolls up on you with a kitted Z, etc. wouldn't [necessarily] expect you to have the "pull" that you do (aside from sound).

What type of aesthetics (aerodynamics, etc.) are you thinking about?

Well, I need wheels because I need bigger tires.

There are also a couple of slight body mods I plan on doing but I am going to keep it a surprise for now.

Stock brakes are fine for the street. You only need to upgrade when you are braking a lot. I don't track my car that often so a brake upgrade is not that important right now.

My car, Tim Goodman's car, Donna's car, Bruce's car (barthelb) and the G35 Rob was driving on Saturday are all pushing over 400rwhp with stock internals.

Bruce (barthelb) just made 440rwhp and 400rwtq on stock internals.

None of the cars have had any engine problems so far... knock on wood.

Site looks good!!! It's about time!

I'm personally working towards the APS as well but, as I was telling Rob the other day, I'll be slowly building my engine internals first prior to slapping on the TT (but that's just me). Since I'm still loving my car as it is now, it'll just give me something to look forward to in the future.

Now...speaking of galleries. Need to ask Rob wsup on hooking me up with a page too . Hahaha. BTW...nice pics Lou.

How about a Poker Tournament with a $500 buy-in?

I am thinking about FI as well......

I am planning on the vortech sc, but keeping an eye on the aps tt if there's a group buy. Should make a list see, if there's enough interest to do a group buy. Lou's car still has me on the vortech sc thinking at the moment, unless there's enough interest. What say??
