    Hey guys, long time member but very low acitivity on this forum.

    I was looking through some pics of my old car and wanted to post them up here and get some feedback on how she turned out and changed over the years.

    Thanks!

    First few days she's home!

    Then decided to buy and restore some old 16X7 Racing Hart Tuners with a nice drop on tokico shocks and toms coilovers

    now when I picked up the 5zigen wheels...I also put in a B18B engine mated to a 10lb Jun flywheel to a b16a2 transmission and 2.5" exhaust....The car pulled AWESOME!

    Then I had a problem with the motor, slowly started to part car, sold the shell and now selling everything off :(


    Just wanted to make a tribute post to my old teal coupe.

    Current driver? - 2000 bmw 323ci...gf's car :(

    Thanks for the reply's guys!

    Actually, maybe for a few years no car for me. Trying to work out a buisness plan and work with money. I live close from school/work so it's good for me.


    But I'd like to pickup a Toyota 4runner(98ish) and put on some wicked beefy rims/tires and take it up north in winter haha.


    I'll write up later what happened to the engine and post here
