Every day that I drive my SC2, I love it more and more. The car has definitely grown on me. It's been a lot of fun to work on. All of the modifications I have done have lived up to the expectations that i had for them. I look forward to putting more under the hood and on the body. Let me know what you think.
I'm not a big fan of this stock green color. I want to go with a burnt orange color that nissan has, either that or black or charcoal gray.
Here's a peak at the interior. It seems to be what people like most about my car.
Indiglo gauges, Panasonic dot matrix display cd player (Thank you Danielle!), indiglo shift knob, and lots of green paint.
The rims are 15" American Racing, and are light as a feather. I know that 17"/18"s would look better, but the 15" rim is what is recommended for best performance. So until the car is powerful enough to spin big rims, I'm keepin these.
Just a peak at the muffler. It's a cheapo off of ebay, but it doesn't sound too bad. Plus i love the angle cut and burnt tip look. The rest of the exhaust is 2.25" with stock cat and no resonator. It meets up to the engine with a 92 SC2 header and downpipe.
Under the hood you can see the header. I highly recomend the AEM long ram intake. The nology wires with beru plugs are another highly recomended buy.
I've also bored out my throttle body by hand. Believe it or not, a couple hours with the dremel made a world of difference. The strut bar was a good buy. The car definitely stiffens up if you put that thing on right.
Oh ya, I also took out the back seats. It started off as custom system build, but then I realized how much weight I was adding to my car with a 15" audiobahn and custom box. Now I'm used to not having to drive car loads of people around (at college). So I just tell them that I took out the back seats for weight reduction.
