12-02-08 took out the 9500s. it was weighing my car down a lot. i am gonna sell dem and get DC headers and an INJEN cold air intake by next month or february...... after long consideration, neither is going on the car. just found out dat the timing belt needs 2 be changed or its gonna give me more problems later on. its a minor set back but hopefully will have the CAI and headers pretty soon.

1-11-09 i went to pick up a friend somewhere and didn't realize dat there was a ditch in front of me.

7/12/09- i am almost to da point where i don't need to do much on the exterior. da only things dat i might do r change the front bumper to an '05, paint sum aggressive eyelines on the headlights, and change the hids. i am gonna start on the engine little by little. it ain't gonna b anything major as the tibby is gonna stay N/A. hopefully i am gonna order a FUJITA CAI by tomorrow. my second performance mod yay. i hope da mod bug won't bite lol. as soon as i get the CAI i will update it

7/17/09- just mai luck. just as i had ordered a FUJITA CAI, they told me dey were out of stock. i decided to buy sum spray paint to do mai headlights. i am trying to give it dat aggressive look. i hope it turns out good

Thanks for the comments man. Yeah the exhaust is Mussa brand, imported from Korea. Don't think the dual angled tips like I have are produced anymore. The screen. I'm pretty proud of that. Made the mount and everything myself. Still needs some work but Overall it's really cool. I Have a TON of new pics coming up soon of the last step of mods I did for the summer. Blacked out the billet grill and tossed in the HID's, and some BA Sparco Racing seats.
