Thats the fun part buiding a car that suits you, thats why i stared modding and trying new things. Have fun with it, regardless of those who like or dislike. Love your creativity espescially with the interior.

I like that you are making the car your own. I wouldn't have chosen the same colors, but atleast your not putting a big spoiler on it! Forget those guys who talk trash because they can't afford nice parts. Houston is full of this knock it because you can't afford it attitude. And I believe that the dsm community is no different. I can only hope that one day I'll have the drive/knowledge to apply so much of my own time into my car. I work in Dallas and live in Spokane Wa. So I'm gone half the year. As a result of the messed up work schedule I have all my work done for me mostly when I'm out of town so that I don't miss any driving time in what little time I'm home. Once again nice build so far keep it up you've caught my eye!
 
Where did you get that oil cooler setup and how much does it cost? Is it after market or stock upgrade? I could use one of those to cool my engine temps down. Love the project man!

I baught it from a guy on ecmtunners, but they go for around 4-600, give or take depending on the amount of bars the one I have is a 10 bar, I think it was around 4-500 new, I really need a bigger one, but this will do for now, I want to get the car put together, then Ill worry about that.
 
Well my motor came in today, here is some picks, are you ready for drop-off mike?

This was a pm sent to me by a guy on a local forum, is this hating or, should I really care?


It has taken me 10 years and thousands of hours to build my car. I am in know way am claiming to know everything there is about building cars or DSMs but I do take the time to learn the right way to build a car. Again you can buy all the high end parts in the world but if you dont know how to use utilize them they are just dead weight.

I have been more than helpful with you and answering all the question you have asked me. I wont do for any one in the world is tell them how to build their car. That is up to you to figure out how to make all your fancy parts work. Just a hint good luck with dual 044s with no feed pump.

And for the love of #### please try and post/write at a level higher than a third grader would. It really is hard to follow the point you are trying to make.

:hmm: I think he's just jealous by the amount $ you can drop into your ride. Some of us must be thrifty, patient, and make each dollar count. Many of the items in your setup aren't required to go fast, but they sure to make it custom for YOUR ride which makes it unique and your own

I really do like your ride dude :cool: keep up with the progress. The engine is a beauty and will purr like a kittah when you pet it :D
 
Thanks guys, yeah I know, Im not worried about haters, it is what it is.
 
looks real awesome. love the colors you picked out to do the interior. I'm planning on doing my interior over and I'm just not inspired through your work but also have a good idea how I want to do it now. Just need time and patience(and someone to support me won't hurt LOL).
