Cool man. I know how it is. Computers are a crazy rapid market, the next gen parts are just around the corner. Your car reminds me of mine, rapidly modding being a first car and all. Its exciting. Ive toned down my car modding alot, back to my roots with my computer.

I see you got the same SRI I have on mine. I plan on removing the filter, and putting a Weapon R 3' Dragon filter on it. With the heatshield, ran to the fender entrance to pull cold air from there.

Don't steal that idea though, atleast til I finish it, and tell you the results =P

[johnnehh]

Haha that first time you fire the car up with that intake, it screams at you. I couldn't stop grinning.

Hehehe me either.

I can see myself getting in trouble with this, though.

I am already a pretty 'aggressive' driver, I like having fun when I drive, and this makes things oh-so much more fun :]

lol i like how you made your video so dramatic by incorportaing The Island theme song into it. nice sound though

[johnnehh]

Put in some cold cathodes yesterday. I like the look

[SwissFerdi]

You're making sh*tcrazy progress...man. What song was that in the video, I mean the trance one?

Telepopmusik - Breathe

And thanks :]

Any feedback on the cold cathodes? My friend who is completely anti-rice hates them, but I don't think they look ricey at all. I like them a lot :]

I had some problems with installing them, though haha. I got them all wired up, cut a hole in the inside of the dash for the switch, then I glued the switch on... And the switch got glued to the "Off" position >.< so I had to go get another switch and do it all over again. But I think it looks great for a grand total of $13.50 :]

[SwissFerdi]

The lights aren't my taste, but they're nicely done. Better than underbody neon for sure.

You into trance BTW?

Trance = Fail

Breaks = Win

DnB = Tha Best.

[delusionz]

I've done the same on my GT4 and my partners SS-III, nobody seems to like it but us.. We used LED strips

[johnnehh]

When are you going there? I was there for the last two days for a vw show.

New clutch today... Ran me about $750 for labor and everything.

Feels SO much better. My old clutch failed every test they had.

[johnnehh]

This is becoming habit-forming!!

[johnnehh]

Put on the header today, with difficulties. That last bolt just didn't want to come off...



^Joe in the white and Jerry on the ground



^Jerry just loveees working on Toyotas :]



^That's meee!



^Almost done, few more bolts (Miguel in the pic)



^After the drive home, GOLDEN!



I can DEFINITELY feel the difference in acceleration. This was the biggest horsepower gain for the least amount of money that I can think of.

Woo!

[BonzaiCelica]
