REPRESENT! I seen you on there also! But the LS400 section is dead, so I Kinda understand why you dont hang around much.

Teejay, thanks! Considering [Ryan] is a friend, I have NOT recieved a sticker :(

Bossplayer, For now, Im sticking with the stock twins, but, being ceramic, and knowing my right foot, they wont last too long, then, Ill upgrade, hopefully to some twins, but Im after good lap times, not 400m.
BTW, nice avatar!

Im going to get more pics today of the progress.

Cheers
Shane.

[McLOVIN]

Very nice car there.

Just 1 point though. The engine is older than the car. Aren't you going to have some engineering hassles there?

[?uestlove]

Yeah, With the Haltech E6X, it should pass emmisions, so It "shouuld" be riight...

Anyways, 6 months later, the car has FINALLY been started, but not ready as yet, still finishing the wiring off, and installing the ECU.
