A few teasers of my new set-up...

I've been sitting on the new rollers for a couple months, but since I got my Advans sold, I figure it's now okay to share a few pictures... Still in tune with the whole JDM theme.







Quick shot in front of the brakes... No lugs!

Thanks for all the praise, guys... I do not have the car in my possession at the moment, as there are a few things still being done to it, but once I do and the weather cooperates, I will get some decent pictures of the whole car.

Thank you. I'm not sure if you saw the brake kit right after final assembly, but it looked like this:



I actually really liked the signature Project Mu teal, but I opted to powdercoat the rotor hats for the 'clean' look you see posted above. I was nervous because, as I said, the teal was really growing on me. It was unique and aggressive. However, I am very happy with the new look.

... Thanks, dude. I was going to text you yesterday. I didn't see your car in any of the Yummies Cruise pictures, but we have to plan to get together in a few weeks...

As for boost... I actually love the naturally aspirated VQ right now. So I suppose when I get tired of that, then I'll look into a F/I set-up. As for right now, though, there are some other plans before I am even going to consider boost. (For instance, I am currently in week five of fourteen (!) waiting for some parts to arrive from The Land of the Rising Sun. I'm getting antsy... )
