Someone took a picture of it last night at the 780Tuners meet, so I figured I’d make my contribution to this forum. ![http://homepage.mac.com/terrylui/.Pictures/Photo%20Album%20Pictures/2004-06-23%2022.02.20%20-0700/Image-10F82192C59B11D8.jpg](http://homepage.mac.com/terrylui/.Pictures/Photo%20Album%20Pictures/2004-06-23%2022.02.20%20-0700/Image-10F82192C59B11D8.jpg) ---

Someone said you were having cooling problems with the car? Do you know what’s wrong? ---

Yeah, the intercooler is hogging all the outside air, as you can see, so it starts heating up in heavy traffic. I want it to stay as stock looking as possible, so a bigger mouth or hood vents are out of the question. I decided to go with a dual core aluminum radiator. It’ll turn out to be a tad more expensive (It’s not a drop-in replacement), but it’ll keep it looking nice and stock the way I want it. - Mike ---

Loven the front bumper yo ;)[/quote] My 60 foot times were 2.5 seconds no matter what i did (my tires were gone). The RB25’s are rated at 250HP stock and im not much above that, the car weighs 3000 pounds. It still has the stock downpipe and cat which i think are holding it back a lot. Ill be 12’s this spring… ---
