Nick, I would suggest cutting the lower portion of your bumper cover soon so that it doesn't remain in that bowed condition it appears to be in now. (I'm taking into consideration the image distortion from the lens too) Other than that, looking pretty good. I know a few of your supporting mods too (since I packed and shipped them out) and gotta say you're headed in the right direction. Keep on truckin' ;)
 
Hey thanks alot Brent.. i am plannin on cutting the bumper like you did on yours.. Any pointers.? I am waiting on the AEM EMS. ditched the SAFC, MAFT and Eprom-D ECU so that should be here monday then the tuning fun begins
 
Is that for real? The FMIC looks to be too tall to retain the hood latch. And since there's no hood pins, I would have to assume the hood latch is still in there. Looks really PIMP though.

Yes it's real, that car is the 4G63.com sponsored SCCA car, I think it got 2nd last year in the SCCA Ultima Street Car Challenge. It's a 700hp GSX, was also featured in Sport Compact Car a couple of months ago.
 
Uhh... Negative.

I'm not trying to be a dick, but you were misinformed. And there is a difference between the Sports Car Club of America and Sport Compact Car magazine.

Roy Narvaez's car, (the car above), competed in the SCC (Sport Compact Car mag) Ultimate Street Car Challenge and placed 2nd. I have had a subscription to SCC for about 2 years and this car was never featured beside the fact that it competed in USCC. Lastly, I have no idea if it has raced in an SCCA race or not.

The wildest thing about the car from looking at it is the way he chopped up his bumper to fit a gigantic Spearco core measuring 28x14.3x3.5

The type of car that makes you say, "Whoa."

by SCCA I meant the Ultimate Screet Car Challenge, my terminology was wrong. I've personally seen it on the cover of Sport Compact Car magazine before, so yes it was featured and I have the magazine with me.

And yes, it does make you say woah, but wasn't it recently sold on Ebay?
 
it was for sale on ebay, bidding had gotten upto like 27,000$ (morons) dunno what happened after that.
 
Here is mine. She needs a bath.
