Nice progress…:tup: I fixed Sobo’s cluster (Thread coming soon). If you want to do the White Guages it is actually easier than I thought. The PO, even before you, just sanded down the OEM filter. We could just do the same. But, I have to remove the needles so we would have to do some tweaking or marking before hand. Maybe a winter project…? ---

So there was much debate about how much this thing was going to weigh. Well it came in at 2780lbs on a FULL TANK!!! literally I filled it up then drove onto the scale. This is street trim on 18x9.5 wheels lol. I might go to the track tonight for some street trim untuned numbers. Not looking for anything good just want to get out and have fun. Then I will get my slicks and skinnies on in a few weeks and see what a 400+hp NA 2600ishlbs car will do. 🙂 ---

Sorry bud I didn’t have it ready. It still isn’t actually. SIDENOTE!!! Man I got this thing back from choko(he did some touch up paint that i effed while working on it) and it could not look any better. I am going to work on some of the gaps but the paint is the nicest smoothest black paint EVER. I am so fucking stoked on how the car looks right now. Also I have the 18x9.5" on and they are flush and dope. Aside from a few kinks I am super happy with this project. Thanks again for all of you that have helped. No fucking way could I have done this alone. Pat is currently finishing some things for me as he is THE MAN and I have given up on some wiring lol. ---
