well i might as well give a short synopsis of the early stages of my celi’s life. i picked her up June '06 it took me a little to warm up to her color, but now i love it. after a while i ended up having a wee little rod knock which resulted in a new rebuilt motor ![http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/DSC01496.jpg](http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/DSC01496.jpg) rebuilt long block ![http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/DSC01595.jpg](http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/DSC01595.jpg) after this incident it left me with barely enough time and money to start modding the car but i did get a few things in… Weapon R SRI Greddy SP1 Cat-Back XS Headers ![http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/DSC02166.jpg](http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/DSC02166.jpg) ![http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/DSC02043.jpg](http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/DSC02043.jpg) ![http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/CIMG0078.jpg](http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/CIMG0078.jpg) then came everything else… ![http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/CIMG0079.jpg](http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/CIMG0079.jpg) these will be in this weekend ![http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/IMG_1441.jpg](http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/IMG_1441.jpg) ![http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/IMG_2091.jpg](http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/IMG_2091.jpg) Polyurethane Motor Mounts will be in this weekend ![http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/IMG_2740.jpg](http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/IMG_2740.jpg) ![http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/IMG_2739.jpg](http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/IMG_2739.jpg) flame away ![http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/IMG_3232.jpg](http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/IMG_3232.jpg) ![http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/IMG_3727.jpg](http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/IMG_3727.jpg) that is basically it up to date. plans for this summer are- -complete suspension work…yes everything -then rims if i still have money ![http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/IMG_1543.jpg](http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d176/Mtusa2004/IMG_1543.jpg) ---

what poly mounts did you go with? Why did you not go with the speed source mounts? I remember art told me about how you blew up that motor, something about the shop that did it didnt have the fpr line on lol? What suspension are you planning on going with? if you need any 5sfte parts let me know I have pretty much everything youd need to do a converstion… ---
