[QUOTE="SecondhandSnake, post: 16379473, member: 116684"] When I bought it, it was a total poser (and ricer). It already had the bumpers and IRS (and R wing, underglow, HID headlights at one point or another) but the GT engine. The rest fell into place piece by piece. It needed sideskirts and GT ones look like trash with Cobra bumpers, so I got the Cobra ones. I wanted a PD blower so I got an Eaton. It was cheaper/easier to run a 4V with one than to stay 2V so I got an 03 engine. GT hood wouldn't clear a blower so I found an 03. Old wheels were trash and I found a deal on a set of staggered 03s. Needed the fuel tank to support it so I bought an 03 one. Friend was selling his 03 interior so I bought it. It all worked out nicely. ...then I found that engine was no good and a lot of it has been discarded in favor of bigger and better. Better built Teksid. Better FF header twins. Better sumped tank. Better cooling system. Better trunk mount intercooler and pump. Even a better, more cooling system friendly flow-ny emblem. It's come a long way from a ricer to a Cobra-resembling shit heap. And if that rustles some jimmies idgaf. [/QUOTE]
