Damn had to break out the tripod and shit!!
Looks awesome ill have to see how clean it is in person sometime.

Wow that looks amazing. So what's left to do on the car? You going to turn the boost up soon?

Thanks. Yeah it looks a million times better than it did. However it still needs paint. Rock chips and clear coat cracking in some areas, nothing a buffer can fix. And it looks better in pics than in real life, but that's always the case. But either way, still super happy with the results for my first time!

Damn, very nice. If you get bored you can come help do that to mine, i provide beer ;)

Can't wait to see the boost turned up, should be a fun street car.

Looks awesome. I have no patience for this kind of stuff especially after driving home on back roads at night. Bug city!

Doing something like this def. helps keep the car cleaner longer, including bugs!

I haven't washed my car for about a month and its finally looking dirty, doesn't help it's been living outside for the last week either but still.

Some small updates. Had to rework the shifter but it's done. Took me a lot of time to get this fitted perfectly that minimal trimming was required of the stock black trim piece. You can see I had to cut a small area on the passenger side, that allows me to get to Reverse. And a very small amount on the drivers side for 1st gear. I have a new shifter boot on the way, and Aaron is hooking me up with an Evo 9 MR 6spd shift knob, thanks again man and lemme know when you find it :) Oh an also thanks Kerry for donating your 2G shifter for me to hack apart and use at the top of the shifter :D

Also big thanks to Ricer Pete. He got the car back within the OEM alignment spec best they could. You can see how bad the rear was (due to the work I did on the rear). So thanks again man, car drives straighter than it ever has!

You are welcome! I'm really glad we could get it back into spec.

That's a crazy looking shifter. Whats a stock one look like?

Stock SC300 shifter looks kind of like this:

This trans is much longer, so not really many other choices unless I wanted to do some sort of remote mounted shifter like this, however I don't know how that'd work with having to push down to get into reverse.

Nice, that thing was all fucked up before.

I'll let you know on that shift knob hopefully tonight.

Did you find a boot to install in there yet?

Yeah I have a new boot on the way, and also a plain black delrin knob.

Looks nice!
Only three coils? Does it fire two at once, wasted spark like a DSM?

Shift boot looks good!

Yep, wasted spark like a DSM.
